Creating Groups in Contacts
Creating Group entries in your Contacts list makes it
easy to make Group Connect calls. Once you have
created Groups, you can communicate with everyone
in a group simultaneously.

Types of Groups

Your Contacts can contain two types of Groups:
䢇Group Connect groups give you the flexibility to create,
store, and modify groups directly on your phone. Group
Connect groups can contain up to 20 members.
䢇TeamDC groups are created and managed online by
any Direct Connect or Sprint user. TeamDC groups
may contain up to 35 members (including the
creator), and they offer additional features such as
Talker Priority. (See “Using TeamDC” on page 52.)
Note Currently, Sprint phones do not support Group
Connect calls with Nextel or PowerSource phones.
When creating a group list, please make sure to
include only users with Sprint phones.
Note TeamDC groups cannot be added or edited on your
phone.
