4. Meme images, search and send GIFs, and see content shared from URLs displayed in the chat.

5. Mute specific chats, or the entire app – you can even leave or end group chats.

6. Easily explore the photos and videos shared in your group now, or later.

7. Add anyone to a group via their phone number or email address.

8. If they are new to GroupMe, they can start chatting over SMS immediately. You’re in charge!

GroupMe Customer Insights

1. Also, as of this week, every time I try to add someone to an existing group, I keep getting an error message saying "*person* cannot be added".

2. Once people are in the group, the chat function works ok, but getting them into the group is a major hassle.Used to love this app but it's recently gotten very glitchy.

3. There is so much potential for this app, but it is unfortunately wasted by a lack of effort to clean up the bugs.The app is a nice way to stay connected without having to keep up with a text message group.

4. The notifications work a quarter of the time, and a lot of times, messages don't send in dms at all.

5. To give some examples, when you access a group, you can't always access the side chat until you close and reopen the app, and when you try to remove a photo from a created event, there's an error.

6. I really don't know how this got so bad as all these features USED to work fine but they flopped after.This is a very clunky app when it comes to adding new people to the group.

7. Group chats fail to load from time to time.

8. At this point we just use it because it still generally works, and switching over to another group chat app sounds annoying.

9. For example, if my friend says "I'll be there soon", after I start the poll, their message now says "POLL".

10. If you tap on a message to see who liked it, sometimes you just aren't allowed to tap a second time to hide it.

11. When attempting to add contacts to a group, you must wait until GroupMe loads all the contacts in your phone.
