Segment groups are an organizational tool on the SMS. Segment groups are stored on the SMS only and are not distributed to the device.
A segment can only be a member of one group and have only one distributed profile at any given time. You cannot add a segment to multiple groups. However, you can have many profiles point to the same segment. When you distribute a profile, the segment replaces the currently used profile.
