How do I send a group text?

Multiple person texting question

It is probably simple, But I have not figured out, on my Lumia 830 w 8.1 How do I send a text to multiple persons at once? I receive texts that are to multiple people at once all the time. It is silly all the things on this phone I am learning and figuring and something so simple!

I know it can not be difficult and it is driving me crazy trying to figure it out!

Thanks
Tim

When you go to write a new text (plus button in bottom left) type the first name, then the second - if your cursor is put into the actual body of the text then tap next to the first name to add another!

Start a new text, at the top where you would insert a contact, tap the + sign on the top right and add the multiple people you'd like to send a text to at once.
