Message Basics
To make a group chat on text, you'll need to start with a basic understanding of messaging. A message is a single text or media file sent from one user to another or a group.
To send a message, you'll need to have a phone number or email address associated with your text account. This is how the service knows who to send the message to.
Messages can be either individual or group chats. A group chat is a conversation between multiple users at once.
What Are Messages?
Messages can be a bit confusing, but basically, they're a way to send and receive text, images, and other media between two or more people.
A group message involves a chat room with three or more participants, and there are two main types: MMS and SMS.
You can have group conversations with multiple contacts using the Samsung Messages app, which automatically opts for MMS in group chats.
MMS stands for Multimedia Messaging Service, and it's indicated in the app by the label "MMS" next to or beneath group messages.
This means that MMS group messages can handle multimedia sharing, which is super convenient for sending photos, videos, and other files to a group of people.

Message Creation and Sending
Creating a group chat is straightforward. You can do it by opening the Samsung Messages app and tapping the New conversation icon.
To add contacts to your group, simply tap Add. This will allow you to select the people you want to include in the conversation.
Once your group is formed, you can type your message and hit send. Everyone in the group will receive your message simultaneously.
If you ever need to delete the group chat, you can do so by holding the chat in the Conversations tab and selecting Delete.

Group Chat Settings
Group Chat Settings are pretty straightforward, but it's worth going over the basics. You can customize notifications for each group, choosing different sounds, vibrations, and alert styles.
To make your group chat more organized, you can give it a name for easy recognition. This is especially helpful if you're part of multiple groups. I've found that having a clear group name makes it easier to keep track of conversations.
If you need to, you can also add or remove people from your group. This is a great feature for managing group membership and making sure everyone is on the same page. Here are some key actions you can take with your group:
- Mute a group to stop notifications
- Leave a group if you no longer need it
- Add or remove members from your group
Adding Contacts
To add contacts to your group chat, start by typing in the name or phone number of the first contact in the "To:" field at the top of the screen. As you type, suggestions will appear below for your convenience.
You can select your first contact from the suggestions or enter their name/number manually. If you choose to enter it manually, tap on the "+" button located beside their name/number to add them to your group chat.
The "+" button is a crucial step in adding contacts to your group chat. Tap on it to add each contact you want to include in the group chat.
You can repeat this process for each additional contact you want to add. The number of contacts you can add is only limited by your needs and preferences.
Mentioning People
To mention someone in a group conversation, start by typing their name in the text field. This will bring up a list of contacts, and you can tap their name to mention them.
Mentioning someone in a group conversation is a great way to call their attention to a specific message. Depending on their settings, they may receive a notification even if the conversation is muted.
You can also mention a contact in Messages by typing @ followed by their name. This is a convenient way to get their attention without having to type out their full name.
To change how or when you get notifications when your name is mentioned in Messages, go to Settings > Apps > Messages.

Naming Your
Naming your group is a straightforward process. Tap on "Enter a Group Name" located at the top-center of your screen to start.
Give your group a name that's descriptive and easy to understand. This will help you and your group members quickly identify the conversation.
The name field is located at the top-center of your screen, making it easy to access and edit.

What is BCC?
A BCC text, or mass text, is a type of group message that hides recipients' numbers. It's perfect for announcements or private updates.
BCC stands for blind carbon copy, which originated from the use of carbon paper to make copies of documents. This means that BCC texts are essentially group messages without reply all.
No giant threads where everyone sees the replies and no phone numbers shared with the whole group are two benefits of BCC texts.
Settings
In the settings section of group chat, you can customize notifications to your liking. You can choose different sounds, vibrations, and alert styles for each group.
One of the most useful features is being able to set a group name for easy recognition. This way, you can quickly identify which group a notification is from.
You can also easily add or remove people from your group. This is super helpful if you need to add someone new or remove someone who's no longer part of the group.
If you're getting too many notifications, you can mute a group to stop them altogether. And if you're done with a group altogether, you can simply leave it.
Texting Best Practices
To make a group chat on text, you need to follow some best practices to keep things organized and easy to manage.
Create separate groups for different purposes to avoid confusion. This will help you keep your personal and work-related conversations separate.
Use clear subject lines when starting a group to know its purpose. This simple step will save you time and effort in the long run.
Assign roles to members in big groups to keep things organized. This will ensure that everyone knows their responsibilities and can contribute effectively.
Consider using group texting apps for more features and customization. These apps can offer a range of tools to help you manage your group chats and make them more efficient.
