Group Text Messaging

Hello,

I have two questions:  1) When setting up a group text, is it possible to have replies come to me only as opposed to having each one seen by the entire group? 2) While I know how to add and delete individual group members, how can I delete the group itself?

It’s definitely important to better understand how group messaging works, Rickster1951. We’re happy to answer any questions you may have. Sadly, there is no way to have replies only reach you when setting up a group text message. They will always go to the group, unless those individual's message you separately outside of the group message.

So we can help answer question two, we would need to gather some additional details. What make/model phone are you using? What messaging application are you using?

I have the same question about deleting a group.

I have an LG V30 and use Message+ (the red one, right?).

I hit the pencil icon to start a text. I hit "Create New Group." I populated the group.

How do I delete the group?

It seems to be in a different place than the rest of contacts.

    4. Tap Delete Conversations.
