If you want to send a group text on a Samsung phone or using Google Messages to a larger group with over 20 recipients, you’ll need to download a group chat app like WhatsApp or Telegram.

You can schedule text messages on Android using Google Messages, Samsung Messages, or a third-party messaging app.

You can send a text message to any modern cell phone even if you use a different wireless provider. Each text message is limited to 160 characters, including spaces.
