Reply to sender in group message

Does anyone know how to make it so you reply to sender only in a group text?

So I asked one of my friends who also has a moto x and this is how she does hers:
-Go to sms & mms settings
-Make sure Group Messaging is not marked.
      -You will still receive group messages, but it will come through in the senders thread, so when you reply it will be to them only.
     -When you first get the text, I believe it will say MMS, but after that the only way you will know it was a group message is if you look at the details of the conversation bubble.
Not exactly the solution I was looking for, but it works. At least now everyone else won't be getting my replies.

  • Can I send a group message and have it appear as an individual message to the recipients?

    I am looking for a way to send one message to all of my work contacts without having everyone's information sent to every recipient.  Is there a way to send a group message, but have the recipients of the message only see that it was from me?

    I Don't believe that's possible yet unfortunately. The decision to determine group texting is on the recipients phone not on your end. So on the iPhone if the recipient has the group messaging toggled to the on position and you send out a group text the recipient will be able to see all of the people that text went to. You could ask, within your group text that they all start a new text to you instead of replying to that one because unfortunately the option to reply to sender or reply to all hasn't caught on with cell phones yet. I would love to see this change in the near future or if there is a way or a workaround hopefully someone mentions it here.

  • How can I not reveal group members' email addresses when sending a group message?

    I want to send a group message without revealing, as a courtesy, the email addresses of everyone in my group to all members of the group. How can I mask the other recipients? --Gary

    Use BCC instead of TO. That is what that feature is for.

  • When I send a Group message from my address book, the entire group gets listed in the "To" line. How do I get each member to receive the message individually without listing all members? Its just messy is all.

    Hey Grupo Castillo,
    Thanks for the question. You can actually configure this behavior from Mail preferences:
    1. Choose Preferences from the Mail menu.
    2. Click Composing.
    3. Deselect the checkbox for "When sending to a group, show all member addresses".
    When you send an email to the group, only the groups name will be seen.

    Hi - I am trying to send a group message to 26 people but it keeps saying too many in the list.  Any ideas how / if this can be done??Thank You in advance for any help and/or tips!! Katrina

    Orange Webmail has a limit of 20 recipients (to avoid spamming). Either break your group into 2 or don't use Orange Webmail for sending. Use instead a POP3 mail client.

  • How do I fix my 3gs after 6.1.3 update? It will no longer send / receive group messages and won't send pic text messages either.

    Ever since I updated my 3gs (on ATT) to 6.1.3, it will no longer send or receive group texts, and it won't send picture messages
    (though I seem to be able to receive picture texts). I've looked around on the boards, and here's what I've tried so far (to no avail):
    1. Tried simply turning off / on
    2. Tried hard reset
    3. Tried having imessages off
    4. Turned group messaging off / on (tried while it was off)
    5. Turned off all messaging, turned phone off / on, turned all message settings back on
    6. Reset network settings
    Help! Argghh!!! I never had this much trouble when my previous phone was jailbroken! Here I am, trying to be good!

    Thanks, Nick. Calling ATT is a last resort; it's a software issue, I'm sure, and I've also found other
    people having the same issue, but none of the fixes work. I reset all my settings: nothing. I'm not sure what you mean by restrictions.

  • Whenever I send a single person text it shows as coming from my e-mail but when I send a group message it comes from my phone. How do I change it so it always comes from my phone number not e-mail.

    Whenever I send a text to a person it shows as coming from from e-mail but when I send a group text it shows as coming from my phone? How can I change it so that all texts come from phone?

    The fact that the problem only occurs when iphones are texting you leads me to think that iMessage may be the culprit. The fact that it is only iphones using SPRINT however is weird. Try turning imessage off on both yours and your sons phones to see if the problem persists. If it does, it may be a carrier problem.

  • How do I send a group message to both imessage and non imessage users and have replies only come back to me and not the group??

  • HTC M8 Sends blank group messages

    Hello all,
    Whenever I reply to a group text, everyone just receives a blank message. I have already powered off my device to see if it could be a memory issue, but I'm still experiencing the same problem. This happens to everyone in the group chat and no one else seems to have this issue.

    Is anyone in that group using an I-phone, or are you a previous I-phone user? There are numerous reports throughout the Internet of blank messages occurring when one or more phone in the group have (or previously had) an I-phone.
    Which texting app are you using? (default, Verizon, Hangouts?) There have also been quite a few threads that talk about how enabling delivery reports (and/or Request receipts) in the texting apps settings for MMS and SMS can stop the problem from occurring. Try enabling delivery reports and/or request receipt in your texting app, and see if the problem goes away.

  • Group Message Sends as Individual Messages

    Hi
    I have an iPhone 5 with the latest software.  My group mesaaging is not working.  If I send an iMessage, my group messaging works as it should with all people replying to the same message.  However when my iMessage is off and I send a group message, each person receives my message seperately and attached is "New Multimedia Message"
    My carrier is Cellcom and my group message and mms messaging are on.
    Thanks

    Hi all.
    Looks like I am not alone! I seldom MMS so I've missed this thread and posted the same problem fresh post a while back.
    Yes, either use the 'Blue Plus' button to add 2nd contact onwards or turn off MMS for now. Gosh, I've been sending quite a few group sms and I have not realized this until now, because sometimes my MMS sending fails and I've to re-send it, only to discover my Group SMS is actually a Group MMS!!
    Cheers

  • Send group message as iMessage and text

    Is there a way to send a group message as both iMessage and text message? When texting two people, one with iPhone and one without, the person without doesn't get the message. The person who doesn't have an iphone used to and now when I try I send her an individual text, my iphone tries to send it as an iMessage. It will usually fixes it and sends it as a text. Could this be why the group messages aren't going through?

    The quick fix is to delete the conversation and start again but then you lose any history.
    Here's how to fix it without losing the conversation history:
    Start a new conversation with the people from the conversation Apple broke.
    Add yourself as a recipient too.
    Send a message to the conversation.
    You will see your sent message.
    You will then "receive" a group iMessage. This shows up as another conversation to the one you just sent the message to.
    To stop future messages from yourself also being sent to yourself, you can now "leave" the group conversation you started.
    Then just reply as normal to the conversation you "received" in step 5.
    After a while iOS will actually merge the new conversation with the old conversation you were trying to save. I'm not sure what triggers it to do that.
