I would like a recommendation for a text app without your recipients seeing other contacts' numbers and replies. Please advice

You could just use the native Mail App and blind copy the names of the group you want to address.

Found this online. Never tried it.

Can you BCC text messages on iPhone?​

Yes, you can send BCC texts from your iPhone to up to 25 recipients. Here’s a way to send a group text without showing all recipients:

1. Go to Settings > Messages. Toggle the iMessage and Group Messaging settings off.
2. From your text inbox, tap the new message button and add your contacts in the “To” field.
3. Send the message. You’ll receive replies as individual messages in your inbox.

Are you saying that I can use the "Native Mail App" to send text messages (SMS) ... ?

No, they would simply be short emails.

Ok - so you're saying, "don't send Text Messages. Instead, send short emails using BCC." Is that correct?

Not exactly. I was trying to suggest a simple way to achieve what you are trying to do. It is fairly straight forward to type in as many contacts as you need in the Mail App.
