New in 3.6: turn any CSV into a Mini-CRM. Every column becomes a list field, so each customer gets their own amount and due date. You confirm every message.
Group SMS — Send to Everyone at Once.
The fastest way to send personalized SMS messages to groups, distribution lists and contacts — right from your iPhone, through the Messages app you already use.
--- GROUPS & LISTS ---
Import your iPhone contacts into groups or build custom distribution lists from scratch. Add contacts manually or import thousands in seconds from a CSV file exported by Excel, Numbers or Google Sheets. Your address book stays untouched.
--- MINI-CRM: LIST FIELDS (PRO) ---
Every extra column in your CSV — amount, due date, plan, membership number — becomes a field of the list. Write a message to the list, tap the fields to insert them, and each customer receives their own values. A real preview shows exactly what every person will get, and the app warns you about contacts with missing values.
Next month, re-import the updated file into the same list: contacts are updated, not duplicated. Select only who still has an amount due and send your reminder.
--- TEMPLATES ---
Save your most-used messages as templates and send them in one tap. With Pro, use {name}, {surname} and {phone} placeholders, with a default value when a detail is missing.
--- PERSONALIZED SENDING ---
When a message contains variables, Group SMS opens one message per contact, already filled in with their details. You confirm each one with a tap; turn on auto-open and the next message opens by itself. Nobody sees the other recipients.
--- EXCLUDED NUMBERS (PRO) ---
Add people who asked not to be contacted — manually, from your contacts or from a list. They are left out of every send automatically, even if your subscription ends.
--- SCHEDULED SMS ---
Plan one-off or recurring messages — daily, weekly or monthly. The app reminds you at exactly the right time and opens the message ready to send.
--- SEND HISTORY ---
Every send is logged automatically: see who received the message, and resend to the rest with one tap.
--- ICLOUD SYNC ---
Your groups, lists, templates and history sync across all your Apple devices via iCloud.
--- BLOCK SENDING ---
Send to large groups in configurable blocks to stay within iOS limits. The wizard guides you through each block step by step.
--- PRO ---
Upgrade to Group SMS Pro to remove ads and unlock unlimited contacts, list fields, excluded numbers, scheduled messages, personalized templates, send history and iCloud sync.
Group SMS never sends messages on its own: every SMS is sent by the iPhone Messages app after your confirmation.
Group SMS is free to download. Group SMS Pro is optional: price and duration are shown in the app before you confirm any purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period.

Version 3.6.1 makes adding contacts easier and more reliable:
• Copy from Contacts — add people to a list straight from your address book, from any account (iCloud, Gmail, Outlook…). If a contact has more than one number, choose which ones to copy: each one becomes a contact of the list. Your address book is never changed.
• Groups with multiple accounts — iOS only allows contacts from the same account in a group. The app now shows which contacts can join and offers to add the others to a list, instead of showing an error.
• Clearer messages — Contacts errors are now explained in plain words, and you're told if creating, renaming or deleting a group doesn't work.
• Search members by name or phone number; contacts saved with only a company name now show it.
