1. 5/5Perfect. Perfect. PERFECT!!!

   I went through an experience where I was having to send 30+ people updates by text 2-3 times a day. It was exhausting to copy and paste my message into each individual chat every time. I wished that someone had invented a way to send texts like you send emails - to a group, but not in a group chat. Suddenly I had the idea, “Maybe there’s an app for this.” I typed it in on the App Store and tried and deleted a few terrible duds before I came across this app. Hit Em Up is exactly what I was looking for! Now when I need to send my 30+ contacts an update, I simply go to this app, paste the message ONCE (not 30 times!), and hit “send” to each person. Everyone gets their own individual message, and you can even personalize it with their name. The text sends just like a normal text message, with no “footer” or advertisement for this app attached. Today someone wrote back to me, “How do u send out group texts but it seems as if they are individual texts. Is there a "Bcc" version of text messaging?” I was proud to share them a link to this app! They wrote back, “That’s pretty neat. Brava!” Yep, I’d have to agree!

2. 3/5Better than others, but still lacking

   I purchased a one-month subscription to communicate with a non-profit group's biennial conference. It worked, but much was lacking for what I wanted it to do--and that is communicate with important updates and changes. 1) I wanted to import >400 names; 2) But I didn't really want all those names in my private contact list (they are); 3) the restriction that permits sending only 50 texts at a time meant I had to make 9 groups, but the app doesn't identify what has been sent so it's counting on fingers; 4) Each of the groups requires multiple click-throughs to actually send a text. Need to be aware of that!; 5) the interface is clunky; and 6) the request to rate the ap is intrusive....again...and again. (I'll rate it when I know what it can--and cannot--do.) I think there is promise with this app. It worked. It was just difficult to manage and I felt like I was working with 10-year-old software. This app gets higher marks since Zake contacted me so quickly. Unfortunately, although I'd tried out sending texts to a small group--and it did well--the scale up did not perform well for me. I did make separate groups in my contacts by labeling the company field and using that to make my 50-person group text. I still must now delete. More than 400 entries from my personal contact list--unless there is a simpler way? Zake--are you saying that if I used the personalized option, I could have distributed them in one go?

3. 5/5Works great but have to add more effort than i wanted

   This app has given me zero problems m. Previously i used an app group text app, which strung together all 72 of my contact list and sent my morning message out all at once. The problem with this although in theory it was simplistic and amazing and no heavy lifting is that the new i0s shortly after iPhone X or right before iPhone X started causing problems with group text, and not everyone in the list of 72 received the messages. You have no way of knowing until someone ask you why they have not received it. With this app, i have to individually press send on each contact which is annoying and if i ever surpassed 100 i will need a more efficient solution or hope that iOS has their crap together so i can go back to sending just one string of all contacts. But the other positive with individually sending the text is that i know everyone received and if For some reason there is an error you will be able to see on that persons text thread that they didn’t receive it. I have had 0 percent Failures since using this app.

4. 5/5Amazing so far!

   I’m a director with 120 direct reports and I often have to disseminate information rapidly to various groups and occasionally all of my staff. Email is too slow and most front-line nurses don’t have time to check their email regularly anyway. Previously I would have to send multiple group text messages, copying and pasting the same message repeatedly. I had to manually keep track of who I’d already sent what to and it was, quite honestly, a mess. I tried this app for the first time tonight and was able to send 70 separate staffing requests in approximately 5 minutes (not including the 10 or so it took me to set up my groups). I can’t believe how easy it was! Some have complained about having to hit send on each message but I personally liked it. I was able to add some custom things to various messages that required it without having to send a completely separate message. I’ll update if things change but as of now this may be one of the most useful apps I use!

5. 1/5HORRIBLE-SCREWED UP MY PHONE

   WORST APP EVER!! COMPLETELY DESTROYED THE SMS FUNCTION ON MY PHONE!!! I wanted to send something to all 1600 people in my iPhone so I got this app. First, they failed to mention you have to hit send for every single contact so it took me hours to do so despite the app. Second, it doesn't show up on your home page so it was INCREDIBLY difficult to delete. Third, it disabled my iMessage, which says it's on but it's not, I get a failed to send message on every text before it sends, IF it sends. Some don't. Videos won't send. I'm getting calls from people who are asking why I haven't responded to texts I never received, while sending me screenshots of the sent texts, which forces me to use WhatsApp for the people I KNOW I'm not receiving texts from. Others....I'll never know about, which is going to seriously affect my business. I'm going to Apple tomorrow to see if they can untangle this mess. If not, I'll have to use a May backup and lose 20 GB of data added between May and Sept. Yes, 20 GB. I run a business from my phone. WORST APP EVER. I have never, EVER had anything screw up my phone as badly as this app. I would have been better off if the developers had stolen my phone. At least then, $1200 would have fixed the problem without me losing 5 months of data. I'm Furious.
