Who I have the same questioned this topic

Verizon just sent me a TCL Filp Pro and I am trying to figure out how to send a text message to a group that I created in my contacts list.  When I start a new text message I can select "group" from the contacts list, then select the name of my group, but the next screen is all of the group members and it appears that I have to select every one of them.  Is there a way to just select the group name and without having to go and select every member of the group?  Thanks.
