Warid has now brought Group SMS, a facility to stay in touch with all your friend at same time.
Warid users can create their SMS group of up to 10 of their friends. Every message they send to the group will be sent to each person in the group, and when they respond, the replies will be sent to everyone in the group as well.
This makes group discussions and planning get-togethers and other group activities easy and spontaneous with just a couple of SMS’s.
How to get started!
- Create your group by sending ‘Create <space> <GroupName>’ to 9393.
- You will be asked to set up your profile through SMS including your nickname. This will only need to be done for the first time you use Warid Group SMS.
- Start sending invitations to your friends to join the group by sending ‘INVITE<space> GROUPNAME<space> <MobileNumber>.
- If you have created a group, you will be allocated a number through which you can initiate messages to your group members by simply sending an SMS to the allocated number.
- In case that you have been added in to a group, you will be asked to save the number from which you received the confirmatory SMS on being added to the group. Now whenever you want to send an SMS to all your friends in your group, just send the SMS to the number you saved! For example: ‘hey how’s it going?’ in an SMS to your saved number.
- For help at any time, just send HELP<space>GROUPS to 9393
Available list Of commands (to be sent in an SMS to 9393):

inovative as always warid is but still needs few improvement
over all nice product needs good marketing.
Chopaal Is Far Better Than That :)
Chopaal is not working as expected. Warid is going to take the market towards it’s side….Something nice from Warid.
this means 10 sms for Rs1.
i rather create these groups in my cell.
which can gave 25 numbers in one group.
ans use my weekly sms package to sms them all
But they can not reply to all of if don’t have same group
So good and different product
All can reply to every one
This is really good feature for persons working in a same organization, will definitely help them better communication.
Useless unless Warid provides sms delivery reports.
