Hi Nicole, 

Although it has been a few years, I really liked GroupMe back when I was in a few groups with it. The app itself was fine and I felt like I was able to navigate and add people well. But what I really liked about it was that there was a setting that allowed all GroupMe messages to come to my phone as texts. That way, I wouldn't have to worry about checking the app, I'd just see them in my messages.

The only caveat would be that you have to remind everyone in the group to make sure they have GroupMe. There were some people in my groups who had deleted GroupMe for extra space and hadn't enabled the text feature, so weren't getting any notifications at all. 

Hope this helps, 

Vejas

            Does anyone know of a website for groups, like sending messages, that is accessible. I already tried Discord and really don’t like it. Slack seems better but is also not great. Any other suggestions.
