[Q] Group SMS app? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I need to get a decent app that will allow me to send group sms messages to 70+ contacts at a time. Currently I'm using go sms pro to send them as it can use the groups i've imported via goggle contacts into the stock messaging app.
However some contacts aren't receiving my messages for some reason.
Anyone know of a good paid or free app that will allow me to get the job done properly?

Group SMS
same required app here...any suggestions?

Handcent, but I don't know if it goes as high as 70.

Does go sms pro only send a set amount of texts in one go? If this was the case then maybe that's why alot of my contacts don't get my messages???

Whats the best app to use to send sms to all contacts?

I have a group of at least 1000 contacts that I need to send regular sms to, which is the best app to use?
I've tried handcent (crashes always....latest version), chomp sms (max of 9 contacts), go sms (I think this one works but I'm not sure if all contacts are listed, I only tried adding them but not actually sending them (because it's gonna be expensive if I send them out unecessarily.
Anyone with similar experiences? I need to be sure that it reaches all 1000 contacts. I've been working like hell adding contacts to a new google account.
wow.. that's insane.. I'd suggest using the gmail app to send a mass msg like that. you can select the sa.e group of 1000 from gmail, and email their phones, you can send it as an SMS or mms.
as far as insane mass texting like that good luck... I know there's a tweak in villain rom that lets you send unlimited messages at once, not sure if it crashes at 1000 tho

Insane yes but I have to do it since I'm on marketing lol
The only thing I entered per contact is their mobile phone so no email. And nope I can't use gmail for sending sms in my country.
Anyone out there who has tried pullin off something like this?
You could create groups with maybe 100 contacts in each. Would be easy to see if go sms pro works then.

I too would be interested in finding a good solution for this too although I only have to send around 600 at max.
Btw, 1000 ppl to text. Wow. I have nearly that many contacts but thats including businesses etc.

You can try our SMS Marketing Service app that support unlimited sms sending per hour (we have 40 sms add ons, so you don't worry for 100 sms limit per hour)

[Q] best app for free text messages (instead of sms)?

I'm looking for an app which allows free exchange of text messages, as a replacement sms (which cost money).
ebuddy xms looks ok but it requires a ton of permissions, which I don't like.
I don't need something too fancy, just simple text messages. Ideally should also be available for iphone/BB/nokia so it could be used with many friends.
TIA
Free text messages ? Do you mean free messanger?
I mean something which allows to send an "sms" which will popup on the friend's phone, but which is free.
messengers are good for chats and conversations. I just need something to quickly send a few lines of text now and then.
tel me wich is good msg application i send fast and free
Search google play for 'Handcent sms'

Thanks. Please see my original post: I'm looking for a *free* replacement to sms. Handcent is an alternative to the stock sms app, but the sms it sends cost money.
My bad, I misread.
Try google

Try Viber and ask your friends to install it aswell and then u can send free messages between Viber users

Group MMS patch?

Hey guys, as most of you know, the stock messaging app doesn't automatically send group messages to multiple recipients as MMS, resulting in the same message being sent to everyone individually. From what I hear, this has been fixed in android 4.2 - allowing for threaded messages.
I know this has been talked about in multiple other forums, but is there a way to enable automatically sending group texts as MMS on our phone using the stock messages app? I think there are fixes for other phones but I haven't seen one for the HOX+. I know third party apps like Go SMS and handcent can do this but I was wondering if it'd be possible with the stock app.
Thanks in advance.

Messaging App

Need help with finding a messaging app that works the way I want it to. I just recently updated my note 2 to 5.1. My old messenger App allowed me to send a text to multiple recipients without it being a group text. I find group texts to be highly annoying. I have tried about 20 apps on 5.1 and I have found that all of them but the verizon app make it so whenever you send a picture it automatically converts it into a group MMS messenger. On verizon you have to manually change it every time. So my question is if there is a way to send picture messages as solo texts to multiple recepients. Is their an app that will allow me to do that by default.
I have turned off settings such as send as MMS etc. The issue is picture messages are already MMS and therefore that setting does not affect it and it still sends as group.
Please help.
i typically want mine to send out as a group so never checked this on my current sms app.. but right now i'm using Textra. Has all the features I want and is very stable and reliable.

MIUI Messages app on BB Keyone? Is there a way to make it work?

Is there any way to get MIUI messages app running on a BB Keyone?
I need the keyboard for my work phone but the stock android messages app is horrible. It doesn't let me send group SMS (text messages). Xiaomi's messaging app is amazing in this regard, as it lets me send group messages via SMS and even shows the group message in the individual conversation.
Is there any way to make this work?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
