Send a group message with Siri

Quick answer

"Text Mom, Dad, and Sam I'm running late" and Siri composes one message to all three, reads it back, and sends on your confirmation. Use names exactly as they're saved. If a name matches more than one contact, Siri asks which person you mean.

Say this

“Text Mom, Dad, and Sam I'm running late”

How it works

01Wake Siri
02Say "text [names] [message]"
03Say "yes" when Siri reads it back to send

Be the first to confirm this.

If Siri doesn't get it

If Siri can't find a name, save full names in Contacts. A mix of iMessage and SMS recipients still works but sends as a group text.
