How to create a broadcast list?

To create a broadcast list, tap your profile icon and then tap Broadcast Messages. You'll see the option to create a list. Users can create any number of broadcast lists, but only 256 contacts can be added to each list. It's also important to note that the contacts you add to this list must have your number saved in their address book. If the number isn't saved, your messages won't reach them. Your messages to contacts on the broadcast list will be sent as individual messages, and even if someone replies to them, you'll receive an individual message. The rest of the contacts on the list won't know about it.
