Confused about Group Messaging
And when people respond, sometimes it goes to the group, and sometimes it just comes to me.
Is this part of the 'group messaging' feature?
I turned that on because I assumed that if it was off, I could not send to multiple people.
Apparently that's not true. Even with group messaging OFF, I can send a message to multiple people.
Can anyone explain this well?
(yes, I've seen this, and it doesn't explain fully. http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=11768253�)
For example. I sent a message that said 'happy thanksgiving!' to 10 people.
person 1 replied "thanks A!".
That message went into my thread with person A.
Which is what I want.
But person 2 replied "thanks A!", and it went to the whole group.
So ten of my friends are getting a message from a random friend of mine that they don't know, saying thanks?
How confusing!
So, "group messaging' really means "group reply"?
But not for everyone?
Like I said, some people's replies come just to me...
Does it matter if I already have a convo with the other person? or if they have an iphone?
Can someone clarify??
thanks!!
