Facebook messages are a great way to connect with a small group of people.
Like if you want to make plans with a few friends, or if you want to share something with just your family.
To start a new group message, just tap the message bubble at the top of the Facebook app.
Then tap the Group button.
Next tap the names of the friends you want to start a group message with.
You can also tap in the ‘To’ section to search by name.
Now that you’ve got the right list of friends, just type your message and tap send to reach the group instantly.
After you’ve sent your first message, you can give the group a name like ‘Dinner Party’ or ‘Family Favorites.’
Names make group messages more fun and make it easier to find the group again later.
If you want to the rename the conversation or add some else to the group, you can always tap the ‘i' button in the top right of the conversation to see more options.
To get back to a group conversation later, just tap the button in the top right of the Facebook app to get to the messaging sidebar.
You can also search for the group by name or by the names of your friends in the conversation.
To message a group of friends today, download the Facebook app or get the Facebook Messenger app in the iTunes or Google Play stores.
