Be Careful Whom You Text.
There were some changes in the way text messages are delivered with the iOS 5 update. I didn?t read all the documentation (who really reads all that crap?), I just like the new pretty bells and whistles.
Here is one important update that could get you in trouble?
Before iOS 5, if I sent a text to multiple people, if they replied back it only went to ME (not the other recipients). After the iOS 5 update, text to multiple people reply back to EVERYONE. ?Group Messaging? is enabled by default.
Yes, this could get you in trouble. If you send a clean joke via group messaging to your mom, your pot dealer, and your boss?the get a group reply back of ?Great joke man. Hey I?ve got some DANK hydro if you want another quarter oz like u got last week?. That could be hard to explain to your mom and boss.
Of course this is an extreme example? just be careful of group texts.
Here is now to turn OFF ?Group Messaging?
Click on Settings, Messages, and slide ?Group messaging? to OFF. Now your iPhone will perform like it always did. Group messages you send will only reply to YOU.
You?re Welcome.
