Used to be able to receive pictures/gifs and view them within the thread. Now whenever there is media, whether sent to me or from me within the group, it'll only show up as a link but not a hyperlink. There's nothing to click on. But I do know people within the group are able to see what I post because I get notified that someone has liked something I said. Please fix.

I'm loving the convenience of group messaging without the messages getting so disjointed, as they tend to do with text messaging. Plus, when my team roster changes, I just need to add or remove someone from the group and then we can continue our communication, not start a new texting thread. I also LOVE being able to calendar events & set reminders, so I don't have to remember to send them myself.

I would have given the app a 5, but I have to go into the app to check it for messages. People with some phones can tell when they have a notification because there is a red number on the icon. My phone does not do that so I have to go into the app to check every day and I miss private notifications altogether unless I have every person open where I can see them This is annoying and detracts from the app in my opinion. It makes it pretty useless for me. I wish you would fix this problem. I had a Samsung note 4. When I got the note 8, I hoped this wouldn't be a problem, but it still is. Please fix this.

Most of the time the app is just fine. Occasionally it will just hang and the only way to get out is to absolutely power off the phone or uninstall the app. There is also a problem that needs some attention. When doing a group schedule and asking people to confirm the RSVP eating first person that responds will always get the message that says undecided instead of a confirmation. The second time you RSVP it will then record the actual RSVP thank you.

I love this app! I work for Waitr and we keep in contact with our managers throughout our shift on this app, it's easy to use and fun! 😊 We also have a couple of chats for coworker where we can joke and be silly, like we'll have GIF-offs lol. Keep up the great work! 😊😊😊

Aaron LeGrand

I find the app very beneficial to use especially when I want to love someone's message. However I am vastly disappointed that there is not a hate or dislike option for someone's message. I'd like to request a feature enhancement of a middle finger icon that allows me to express my displeasure of someone's message within the app. Thank you once this is completed I will give 5 stars

For some reason I'm not getting any notifications for my groups unless I get mentioned or someone likes my comment. All of my notification settings are on, and my groups are not muted. Otherwise, the app is great. I'd appreciate if you looked into what the problem may be. I have a Galaxy S8

Kirsten Dickerson October 12, 2017

It's really good and convenient with communicating with more than 4 people, it won't work if it's less than 4. The only thing I don't like is being able to delete the group if you don't wanna see your list of groups; you have to hide it but other than that, it's easy access to your access to your groups.

Jaimee Clerc October 20, 2017

Vastly inferior to Line in all ways but 1- this chat app shows who's typing when you're in group chats and waiting for a response. Otherwise, it doesn't even compare. If you're looking for all the same features done better plus way more to offer, get Line.

Dominique Ford October 13, 2017

It works great! I use it mostly for work. But it worked so well that my friends and I use it now too. It only stopped working once and it was technically still working but I stopped getting notifications so I didn't realize I had messages.

Đặng Trang October 17, 2017

Xiaomi users don't bother to download it, cause Groupme just don't work on Xiaomi (if you delete and reinstall the app, it won't load your messages). What a shame cause I kinda like this app.

Samantha Maclaughlin October 21, 2017

I feel tgatvwe should be able to delete people from contacts. I had a whole bunch of people added to my contacts that I didn't know but also that I don't want. There should be a mass delete button for us to remove people that we do not want while we keep the ones that we do.

Sabbu Maharjan October 20, 2017

1.Keeps crashing and doesn't update messages fast enough. 2.Doesn't let you message anyone, even people who have groupme, until you add the person to your phone contacts and then sync it. Nobody wants to keep syncing! 3.There's no auto sync either. 4. Anyone you add to a group can see all the previous messages. I'd give less than a star if it wasn't for the meme feature.

Alexander Peterson October 21, 2017

It does everything you need it to do. It's honestly better than the stock messaging apps found on Android and Apple products. I haven't found any type of problem so far. Great app.

Julie Skilbeck October 13, 2017

Works fine, I just don't understand the point. It's a group text...big deal. I am required to use it for my daughter's sports team and tracking actual information is a nightmare. I absolutely prefer TeamSnap.

Richard Ernst October 6, 2017

Great app! Only the group creator has to install it. The recipients get regular texts (SMS) and reply in the same text thread. Exactly what I needed. Slight downside: It chops long messages into 140 character chunks, which is unnecessary for most mobile carriers. Observation: it's not at all obvious, but you can view and delete members via a side swipe menu when viewing a group's message thread.

LMHQuartzcraft October 7, 2017

It's good for having a group chat with friends, but literally get rid of the "remove members" button. It's so annoying when you're having a conversation, then someone decides it'll be funny to take you out of the group.

Christian St. Clair October 16, 2017

Never gives notifications. Logs me out constantly. Buggy. Slow. I hate this app with a passion. I don't know why anybody uses this app when there are much better and more user friendly group chat apps out there.

Heather Wrage October 13, 2017

This app is great for the most part. I only gave it four stars because it signs me out all the time and I don't realize I'm missing stuff. Our school uses it for clubs and sports.

Anthony Biancardi October 12, 2017

The latest update made my phone incompatible according to support. What a great update, now I can't access my chats. It's been over a month now that I can't login.

Sweetie King October 13, 2017

Very useful and fun. It's like talking to your friends and being able to actually hear and know what everybody is saying .like a real group conversation with friends except in a text message

October 19, 2017

Was working fine for about three days. Now when I try to login it says "Error Authenticating With Google, Please Try Again Later". Moto Z Play

Dawn Lichty October 13, 2017

Great app, but it appears the update IS preventing me from logging in. Resetting the password didn't help and reinstalling didn't either. I'd love to get back in!

Linda Lutz October 11, 2017

GroupMe is a fast and easy way to create specific texting groups that can be used from phones, tablets, and computers. Our family uses it for lots of different groups. If I were to ask for one improvement, it would be to make it easier to edit individual members of the group. Overall it's a very good app.

Erin October 17, 2017

Its annoying. You cant delete old chats and is literally useless.

Joaquin Then October 10, 2017

I think groupme is awesome .. i hope they make notification alerts appear for specific people , also have when someone heart your message appear just like on the iphone but on an android separated.. .. i really enjoy groupme sometimes I'm expecting responds back from a specific person but they have to put @ for it to really aplear on my phone

Alexandra Fuentes October 12, 2017

It's a good alternative for groups of people who don't all have a mix of iPhones and Androids since texting doesn't always work and not everyone I know has FB messenger or Whatsapp to group message in.

Nathaniel Douglas October 16, 2017

I used to use this app for work about three years ago and it worked well. Now I have been trying to use it and I can not use the app. I can only communicate with texted messages.

October 10, 2017

The guy who used to have my phone number made a group me account so when I put my information in, our accounts merged and it's just a nightmare.

October 19, 2017

I love it! I get to keep in touch with a certain group of people and I really enjoy it because we send eachother inspirational messages and greet eachother every morning. I really do love it!

the MRobertson October 7, 2017

This app does what it's supposed to do and does it very efficiently. But why can't I delete a conversation or group? I don't want to hide it, I want to delete it! That's a simple function that should be available.

Omar Morsy October 16, 2017

Don't know why but I'm not getting alerts of new messages. Have to go in to the app to check if I got new messages. Checked app and phone setting. No solution!!!

Ketsuda Abramowicz October 19, 2017

Good app but annoying pop ups asking to rate the app - deducted a star because of the pop up.

Sean Johnson October 17, 2017

Can't change my nickname Error keeps coming up. How do I fix that?

Tyler Stenson October 9, 2017

I enjoy GroupMe'd simplistic design, wonderful integration with less privacy concerns than Facebook messenger, and that it allows me to communicate with people easily. Thanks for making such a cool tool!

KIMBERLY BILLINGSLEY October 6, 2017

I can't edit or update my cell phone number. It went back to my old account

Ashton Howard October 11, 2017

Great app for iOS and Android!! My teammates were struggling in a regular group chat but now with this app we can send messages easily!! They send very quick with or without Wi-Fi!!
