Wait, there's a separate app for IG messages? For iOS? Link? I can't find _any_ references to it.

Yes there is one for close friends. It's called Threads.

You can add anyone to your close friends list. So add anyone you like to chat to. If you want a group to appear in Threads, add all the people in the group to threads.
