1 ★ The option to send a message at a scheduled time is gone from my message plus app. I use that all the time since I have different hours then most of my family and friends. Did you guys delete it from the app. I really don't like using other messaging apps but I will have to find something else if scheduled messaging is no longer an option in message+. Very disappointed though. Now all of a sudden I go back in to my app and poof .... scheduled messaging is back again?!? What's really going on...

2 ★ I have been with Verizons for years and I have never had an issue. Until now. Every since the recent update I have to turn my notifications on. Every single day. I sent a message for support and the reply was to get Instabug. I will not download another app to make this one work. Please fix soon.

2 ★ Needs to follow the DND rules. Known issue. When you share an image a certain way it automatically sends without even a preview. You better be sure.. sometimes when you share something the contact names don't show up in the list choose but you go back out and back in they're there. Need to use keyboard color in the text field when typing.. Color choices, message delete ease and repeat reminder is only thing over Android messages.

3 ★ I have been with Verizon for over 25 yrs so I've been using this app since the beginning. I''ve always loved it. Lately, not so much. For the last 3 months, I no longer get notifications, sound nor visual. It's frustrating to say the least. I constantly have to look to see if I got any messages, especially if I'm waiting for one. I've thought about deleting and downloading again but I don't want to lose all my messages. I have no clue what was done to the app to cause this, but please fix it!

1 ★ I have used this app for years and loved it. I use it to make phone calls from my Verizon tablet, but as of recently can no longer do so. The tab to turn on calling will not slide from left to right and turn blue. I deleted the app and reinstalled, but that only fixed problem for a couple days and then same problem occurred. Very disappointing!

3 ★ Great, but they offer to let you buy gift cards in the app, don't do it with your account. Bought two for birthday gifts, one came back as it was never activated, the other cam back as a fraudulent card. (Previously I had bought a couple and everything went great.). Then came the trouble of trying to get my refund. So far I have paid for the cards twice and it is still on my bill. It is still on my bill. Everything else is good.

2 ★ The app was all good and fine a bit laggy and clunky until I got my new phone, it works the exact same exept now when I am in a text group and receive/send a bit over 10 messages I won't be able to send messages or receive messages in the chat for a good 25 minutes, insted each time somone chats in the group chat I will receive a blank text from them personally and after 25ish minutes I'll receive all the messages. It's hella annoying

3 ★ App works fine for the most part. Is there a way to react to messages that I am not seeing (like, laugh, etc... to a specific message)? Also I do occasionally have texts that simply will not go through until hours later, typically in a group message. It is a rare occurrence but annoying when it does happen.

1 ★ P.O.S. app. Will not allow replies to anything other than complete phone numbers. A text from the electric company or money manager that is just 60878, 054321 (for example) rather than a complete phone number, fails, when all that is required from me is a yes or no reply. A hour on the phone with a inept rep was an even bigger waste of time.

3 ★ The app constantly bugs out, which sucks because its still my default app for messaging and I really want to like it. The other day, it literally bugged out and sent a text that was supposed to go to my cousin, to my employee, so you can see why this would be a cause for concern.

1 ★ It was a fantastic app but now my text only come in manually for some reason. And for some reason I'm now not receiving all of my texts. Also tech support for this app is not too good at the moment. Edit still getting my texts 15-20 minutes late and reached out for help 2-3 weeks ago and still haven't received any.

2 ★ Edit: As of today I'm having the same issues. Texting doesn't go through on WiFi. June update really messed this App up!! Please fix it!! 6/9/21: Updated my Samsung Galaxy s10+ a few nights ago and ever since haven't been able to text while on Wi-Fi. Messages are sent but not delivered. The update messed everything up!! Please fix and no more updates. If you update it messes up your phone, if you don't update is messes up your phone!!!! Very annoying!! Fix it please!!

3 ★ The app itself works fine when it wants to. There are times in which messages are sent but never sent out. There are some glitches within the system that have arised in the last few days since I've been using it, and it seems like they fixed themselves and then break themselves. Stability seems to be an issue but it's not one that cannot be solved.

1 ★ Hate this app it used to work, I have trouble shot everything suggested, uninstalled, on phone and tablet, I can't send or receive text, the bar code that is referenced that would be sent to my phone isn't delivered because the phone doesn't receive text. Support recommendations DO NOT WORK!!! Zero rating...

2 ★ What happened to pop-up text messaging? I used to be able to exit out of it by hitting an "x" but not I have to touch some pull down menu to shrink it and then find "x" to get out of the window hovering over. If it was working properly before, why change it??????
