Open contacts > tap the two people icon in center of top screen  > next tap a select group you want to set up >  Enter the names and save. Now when you open Message + , type in all members of your group on first use and the Group button will highlight. >  type or speak your message and send. > Do not delete Recipients reply to and you can tap that on your next message sent, as a group thread reply address.

Hi Nottecsavy
You would want to use the Verizon messages app to use group messaging. Once this service has been enabled you wouldn't be able to send a group message from the green icon. That icon would be only for viewing.

I just tap pencil upper right , then person icon. Next tap in one or more contacts or hit the preset group key that you want to send to.

How do you preset a group and where is the preset group key?
