How to Start a Group Text Message

Send one conversation to multiple people using the phone's messaging app.

Quick Answer

Create a new message, add multiple recipients, type the message, and review recipients before sending.

Step by Step

  1. Use the platform's official app or website and confirm you are signed into the intended account.
  2. Create a new message, add multiple recipients, type the message, and review recipients before sending.
  3. Review privacy, audience, recipient, or recovery settings before confirming important changes.
  4. For account-security problems, secure the associated email account and enable two-factor authentication when available.

If That Doesn't Work

  • Social-media menus and features change frequently and can differ by device, account type, region, and app version.
  • Do not send money, passwords, one-time verification codes, or sensitive personal information to an account merely because its name or photo looks familiar.
