It was launched in May 2010 by the private company GroupMe.[1][2] In August 2011, GroupMe delivered over 100 million messages each month[3] and by June 2012, that number jumped to 550 million.[4] In 2013, GroupMe had over 12 million registered users.[5] History{{Skype Limited}}GroupMe was conceived at TechCrunch Disrupt 2010.[6] Founders Jared Hecht and Steve Martocci raised US$10.6 million in venture capital from Khosla Ventures, General Catalyst Partners, angel investors, and others.[1][7] In August 2011, Skype acquired the one-year-old start-up for around $80 million.[8] Skype had itself been purchased by Microsoft in May 2011, with the purchase finalized in October 2011.[9] The app underwent a redesign in late 2012.[10] UsageGroupme works by downloading the app or accessing the service online, and then forming an account by providing your name, cell phone number and a password, or you can connect through your Facebook or Twitter account.[11] The service then syncs with your contacts and from that point forward the user can make groups limit size 500. An individual who is part of an active group has the ability to turn off notifications for the app; users will still receive the message, but will not be notified about it. Each group is given a label and assigned a unique number. Some of the features on the app include the ability to share photos, videos, locations, create events, and personalized emojis. GroupMe has a web client as well as apps for iOS, Android, Windows Phone, and Windows 10. Those who do not wish to use the app can still send and receive GroupMe messages through SMS. Users begin by creating a “group” and adding contacts. When someone sends a message, everyone in the group can see and respond to it. The app allows users to easily attach and send pictures, documents, videos and web-links as well. Users can also send private messages, but only to users who are also active on the GroupMe app.[12] References1. ^1 {{cite web|title=About GroupMe|url=http://groupme.com/about|accessdate=18 August 2011}} 2. ^{{cite web|author=|title=Inception: A Hackday Dream (The Story Of GroupMe)|url=https://techcrunch.com/2010/08/26/inception-a-hackday-dream-the-story-of-groupme/|publisher=Tech Crunch|date=26 August 2010|accessdate=18 August 2011}} 3. ^{{cite web|author=Shontell, Alyson|title=A Year In The Life Of An $11 Million Startup, GroupMe|url=http://www.businessinsider.com/groupme-2011-8#present-groupme-turns-one-with-millions-of-users-in-90-countries-16|publisher=Business Insider|accessdate=18 August 2011}} 4. ^{{cite web |title=GroupMe has 4.6m users sending 550m messages per month, court documents show |url=https://thenextweb.com/insider/2012/07/18/groupme-has-4-6m-users-sending-550m-messages-per-month-court-documents-show/ |first=Robin |last=Wauters |publisher=The Next Web |date=July 18, 2012}} 5. ^{{cite web|title=GroupMe compared to competitors|url=https://pando.com/2013/10/08/can-groupme-still-compete-in-the-messaging-wars/|accessdate=22 October 2016}} 6. ^{{cite web|author=Arrington, Michael|title=GroupMe, Born At TechCrunch Disrupt, Secures Funding And Launches|url=https://techcrunch.com/2010/08/25/groupme-born-at-techcrunch-disrupt-secures-funding-and-launches/|publisher=|date=25 August 2011 |accessdate=18 August 2011}} 7. ^{{cite news|author=Wortham, Jenna|title=Start-Ups Are in a Rush to Bring the Chat Room to the Smartphone|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2011/03/11/technology/11group.html|publisher=|accessdate=18 August 2011|work=The New York Times|date=10 March 2011}} 8. ^{{cite news|author=Ante, Spencer E.|title=Skype to Acquire Start-Up GroupMe |url=https://www.wsj.com/articles/SB10001424053111903327904576522964260277734 | work=The Wall Street Journal|date=22 August 2011}} 9. ^{{cite web|author=Wednesday, March 7th, 2012 |url=https://techcrunch.com/2012/03/07/groupme-gilt-group-jon-bon-jovi-come-together-to-offer-qa-internships-to-americas-youth-through-summerqamp/ |title=GroupMe, Gilt Groupe, Jon Bon Jovi Launch SummerQAmp To Create More Quality Assurance Jobs |publisher=TechCrunch |date=2012-03-07 |accessdate=2013-07-08}} 10. ^{{cite web|author=Megan Rose Dickey |url=http://www.businessinsider.com/groupme-chat-app-redesign-2012-11 |title=GroupMe Chat App Gets A New Look |publisher=Business Insider |date=2012-11-07 |accessdate=2013-07-08}} 11. ^{{cite web|url=https://groupme.com/|title=GroupMe - Group text messaging with GroupMe|publisher=}} 12. ^{{cite web|last=Jacobsson |first=Sarah |url=http://www.pcworld.com/article/250439/groupme_app_review_perfect_for_coordinating_with_friends.html |title=GroupMe App Review: Perfect for Coordinating With Friends | TechHive |publisher=Pcworld.com |date=2012-02-26 |accessdate=2013-07-08}} External links
