    I have yet to try it (I am in the process of putting contacts in my phone and waiting for my old number to port over to this one)...but I imagined that you could create groups in your contacts and then pick the group when you send the text message?

    I really need there to be this feature too - I have unlimited texts and usually group text quite a lot. Don't go all Apple-like on us, Google. Please don't not deny us of features that have been standard to phones for YEARS

    you can group text, u just put in ur contact or number and then a comma should appear and just add a new contact and number and so on.

    I wonder if the original poster meant creating groups in your contacts (like in most Nokia phones).

    E.g. My contacts list consists of:

    John
    Jerry
    Louise
    Sarah
    Mike
    Roger

    Now, Louise, Mike and Roger are members of my family. I want to set up a group called 'Family' and include them all in it. So each time I want to text the family, all I have to choose this group as opposed to selecting each person one by one.

    Anyone know if this is possible?
