How To Add a Person to a Group Text in iMessage

iMessage groups are great for keeping in touch with friends and family. With iMessage, you can add up to 32 people to your group, making it easy to manage everyone’s availability. And if you have multiple contacts in your group, things get even better. For example, you can send a group text that includes all members or create a thread where everyone can respond and participate at their leisure. But if you want to add another person to a group rather than replace someone already there, that’s fine too. Here’s how…

Add a Person to a Group in iMessage

If you want to add another person to a group, you can do so by following these steps:

Step 1. At the top of the group list, tap the person you want to add.

Step 2. Swipe over to the “Add to Group” option. If a notification from the person you are replacing is already present, you will be prompted to remove the existing person first.

Step 3. Tap “Add to Group.”

Use an existing Group.

You can also add someone to an existing group. This can be useful if you have multiple people in your life who are also in your group and want to add another person to the conversation. To add someone to an existing group, follow these steps:

Step 1. At the top of the group list, tap the person you want to add.

Step 2. Tap “Add to Group.”

Create a New Group

If you want to add another person to one group and not another, you can create a new group. This can be useful if you have multiple people in your life who are also in your group and want to add another person to the conversation. To create a new group, follow these steps:

Step 1. At the top of the group list, tap the “+” icon.

Step 2. Type in a name for the group, then tap “Create Group.”

Change the Group Message Template

iMessage can include a group message template, including information such as your name, the date, and the group number. If you want to change the message template, follow these steps:

Step 1. At the top of the group list, tap the person you want to add.

Step 2. Tap “Edit Group.”

Step 3. Tap “Message Template,” then select a new template from the menu.

Send the Group Text

When you are ready to send the group text, follow these steps:

Step 1. At the top of the group list, tap the person you want to add.

Step 2. Tap “Block.”

Step 3. Tap the group text you want to send. If the group text is already selected, you will see the message with all participants’ names and statuses. Otherwise, the text field will show the group name and the message template you selected.

Step 4. Tap “Send.” You can also edit a group message that is currently being delivered. To do this, tap on the message, tap “Details,” and then “Edit.” In the “Edit Group Message” window, you can select which person you want to edit the message for and then make the changes. To remove a person from a group message being delivered, tap on the news, tap “Details,” and then “Block.” In the “Blocked People” window, tap the person’s name and then “Remove.” The person will then only receive the message once they can unblock themselves.

Summary

This process is the same if you want to add a new person to a group text or replace an existing one in a group text. You can also change the group message template or add people to a current group. Once you have added or replaced a person, send the group text to your recipients to start a conversation. If you want to remove a person from a group text, tap on the message and then tap “Details,” “Block,” and then “Remove.” Alternatively, you can tap on the news and then tap “Details,” “Block,” and then “Edit.” This will let you change who is sending the message. If you want to restart the conversation with a new message, tap on the news, tap “Details,” and then tap “Start New Message.” If you want to restart the conversation with your original text intact, tap “Details” and “Restart Original Message.”
