Handset Groups

Manage handset group chats and their members.

hs groups

hs groups

Open the group menu.

hs group

hs group
hs group <name>

Without a name, list your groups. With a name, choose the group that
hs group msg <message> sends to.

hs group create

hs group create <name>

Start a group. The name is 2 to 30 characters, and none of your other groups
can have it. A name belongs to your handset, so another crew can use the same
one. You can be in 8 groups, and a group holds 20 people.

hs group invite

hs group invite <group> <contact/ID>

Invite someone to a group. Put a group name of several words in quotes.

hs group accept

hs group accept <group>
hs group decline <group>

Answer an invite. Use the group's name, or its ID when two invites have the
same name. If one of your own groups already has the name, the new one is
listed as the name followed by (2).

hs group msg

hs group msg <group> = <message>
hs group msg <message>
hs group text <group> = <message>

Send a message to a group. Part of the group's name is enough. Without a
group, the message goes to the group you chose with hs group <name>.
hs group text works the same as hs group msg.

Example: hs group msg Night Shift = On my way

cannot be the name of another of your groups.
