Looking to change the notification sound. It used to be in customize, but now I cannot find it anywhere. It is not available? Am I over looking it?
Thanks.

Do you have version 6.4.42 updated 12/21/17? That seems to be the latest update. I'm still seeing the notification sound option via the three dots in the upper right-hand corner > customize > tones.

I was referencing what's on the Play Store listing and the app on one of my devices:
Verizon Messages - Android Apps on Google Play
Apparently that page is out of date since I've seen a few posts this morning where the app was updated again a day or so ago to version 6.5.0. I'm not seeing that version on my device yet.
Which version do you have?

Might help to identify the make/model phone/device you have.

That instruction is for the Google Messages application not the Verizon Messages+ application.
I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.

Once into the Google settings that Joe mentioned scroll down to the message plus app and you can individually change the notification for Messaging Plus

That only sets the default notification for the app and is not what people are asking about. In the previous versions of Verizon Messages you could click a person / conversation and permanently set a custom notification for that person. This option no longer exists in the 6.5.0 version of the app that released on 12/22

I spoke to a rep this evening. He indicated that not all phones have been affected. Pixel 2 is one of those affected by the update not showing all the options in the application correctly.

This clears it up. Thanks for the info Nuro! Hopefully Verizon can keep up on the updates.

I was originally asking for the notification sound for incoming messages. It was answered.

Click the link that Joe provided above and find the settings for notifications. You can individually change the notifications for all apps in one location.
