I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 5. My problem is I was received a text message, but I could not tell there were four people involved in the Group message. The four people were not displayed on my phone. My wife has a Samsung Galaxy S4 and her phone showed all four people involved in the Group message. Am I missing a setting? If I'm involved in a Group Message, I need to know. Thanks for any help.

Depends on whether it was sent as an SMS or MMS, and whether you have MMS enabled. SMS went sent to a group of people, the recipients won't know that it was a group message simply because SMS doesn't work that way. An SMS group message is just sending a text to several persons at once, instead of one at a time. A group MMS on the other hand, works like a chat room, or iMessage. But you'll need to have data enabled and MMS configured properly on your device. It's your network carrier who'd have to provide you with proper settings.
