I've noticed when I send a groups SMS message and receive a SMS back it goes into the thread where I sent it to everyone and not just where I talk one on one with the person. Dose everyone see responses when I send a group SMS.

Yes when the person responds its go to everyone you sent it to typically.. some phones may not work that way but most do..

You can turn off group SMS in the settings. So when you send a group text when they respond it goes into an individual conversation so you can reply back to that individual. Now of course if that person has group SMS turned on their phone their response will still go to everyone. It you'll see it in an individual conversation.

Hope that makes sense.

Glad I found this post. I started getting replies from people I don't know. I think this setting should be off from the factory by default.

Just updated my settings. Sometimes we use the devices and always forget to look at the simplest things... duh like SETTINGS!!!

This was making me crazy.

I've had a look in settings, but I cannot see any mention of group SMS. I've also looked in Settings/Messages but couldnt find anything in there either. Could you tell me where this setting is please :eek:

Thanks but I do not have that option when I go here on my 4S. I'm in iOS 5.0.1.

Here's what I see when I go to settings/messages.
