GroupMe

GroupMe, a free app from Skype, makes it easy to stay connected with your friends and family via text, picture, and video messages. GroupMe has an easy-to-use interface that makes it easy to keep in touch with the people you care about most.

GroupMe gives you the easiest way to stay connected with your group by letting you have group text messages and group video calls on your phone or computer, no matter where you are or what device you are using.

Updates

In 2022, GroupMe updated its app to allow for more features. One of these new features is the ability to include a gif in your group chat.

Another new feature available in GroupMe is called 'skip.' It's a useful tool that allows you to skip past messages you don't want to read or are looking at on another device.

The third update this year was that the notifications tab now displays all messages sent by anyone within the group - not just those who message you first, as it did before!
