Any program to TEXT MESSAGE? Need it. Will PAY!

I need a program where I can send out copious amounts of text messages. I want to text everyone on my phone list.

I think our phones can only text 10 people a time? Is this true? What if I had it text 100 numbers at once? Would it bounce? Would 100 people get it?

Or would I have to send it out in groups of 10 and then wait a few minutes then do another 10?

So I can create 1 group with 100 users and message them all? And they all will receive it?

Yes...i don't think it has a max number but i could be wrong...

I've created lists of up to about 20 people

im wonder if the 10person limit is just associated with the stock messaging sys and aftermarket arcsoft sys'....

if it is, then yeah, id think you could send 500 hundred....

im guessing this app leaves no traces of the sent messages in the default threaded messaging sys?? if it does, it wont work for that amount of people, no way... i can explain, just dont wanna get ahead of myself, if it doesnt show up in the standard threaded afterwards

Well...my bad OP

It just keeps an organized list of your groups. So when u want to send an text it takes that group and adds them to the normal text msg.

i'm not sure how many people got my text. I sent 20

edit: Trying to figure out if anyone didn't get it

edit: Doesn't show up in sent folder. I'm in "classic" by the way

so it does default to the standard messaging application then???

yeah dont try to send 100 out at once then.... youll freeze you phone for sure, and have to soft rest atleast is my guess...

if i spam txt a 100page txt to your device, done, your phone will hate you surely, and possibly lock up even... i would think the same would happen in reverse... all those recipients are gonna try to show up at once in you threaded box...

all speculation, but id just make a few short lists, and do it like that...in intervals
