What is a broadcast
A broadcast sends one message to everyone on a contact list at the same time. Each person receives it as a private text that looks just like a one-to-one message, so they never see who else got it. When someone replies, it lands back in your inbox as a normal conversation.

Frequently asked questions
What is a bulk SMS broadcast?
A broadcast sends the same message to everyone on a contact list at once. Each person gets it as a private one-to-one text, so there's no group chat and no one sees the other recipients.
How do I send a bulk text in Dialbird?
Start a new conversation, click Select next to To:, choose List, pick your list, type the message, and confirm on the Send Broadcast screen.
Do recipients see each other?
No. Every message goes out as a normal private text, so recipients never see who else received it and nobody ends up in a group thread.
What happens when someone replies to a broadcast?
The reply comes back as an ordinary one-to-one conversation in your inbox. You'll find it under the Broadcast filter at the top of your chat list.
Can I send to just a few hand-picked contacts?
No. A broadcast always goes to a saved list, not a handful of ticked contacts. You can build a list in the picker with the plus button or under Contacts.
Can I attach photos or files to a broadcast?
No. Broadcasts are plain text, so the photo, file, and voice-note buttons are hidden while you compose one.
Do I need carrier registration to send bulk SMS?
To text US numbers you need A2P 10DLC registration first. Unregistered traffic is blocked or heavily filtered by US carriers.
