Message + vs Message Group texts
Four of the five on our Family Plan use stock Verizon Message. I'm on that Family Plan but use Message+.

Second Icon on bottom of emoji keyboard - Causing hangs
I am using Message+. I'm having a problem when I go to the emojis (by clicking smiley face on text entry line) and I click that second icon next to the smiley face at the bottom.

Howdy, I have Galaxy S7 that used to be a company phone. They bought us all iPhones to replace the android phone and gave us the option to keep the Galaxy phones.

Problems with Message+
I love the new Verizon provided text app, Message+. however, over the last 2 phones that I've used it on, I have had some strange and inconsistent issues with it. G2 and G4 by LG.
