You have to add a phone number from an active VZW phone line to sync the text messages to the tablet.

I have a active VZW phone line so how do you sync the text message to the

tablet?

To set up a phone or tablet on your account:

1. Download Verizon Messages (Message+) from the app store on your device.
2. Read the Terms & Conditions.
3. Tap Get Started.
4. Enter a nickname for the device.
5. Enter your mobile phone number.
6. Tap Send me a text.
7. You'll receive a text message on your phone with a security code. Enter the code in the app on the device to set it up on your Verizon Messages (Message+) account.

Note: Messages start syncing on the day you sign up for Integrated Messaging. Any messages you sent before you signed up for the service won't be synced. The Integrated Messaging service syncs up to 90 days of messages between the web and your iPhone, tablet or other devices. Messages older than 90 days will remain on your phone, but won't be synced to the web.

I have already downloaded Message+ and have a phone already synced. I want

to add another VZW number?

[tikibar1]

You enter the phone's number in the text app on the tablet; the tablet syncs texts with the number assigned to the phone.

I do not see a text app?

[tikibar1]

I'm referring to the Verizon Messages+ text app that you indicated you've already downloaded.

[MVCOMPROMISE]

Got it so where do I go in the text/Message app to sync new number?

[tikibar1]

Open the app, accept the terms and conditions, fill in the blanks for a device nickname and your mobile phone number, then tap Send Me a Text.

You said earlier that you "have a phone already synced".  I thought you meant that you have Verizon Messages working on your phone.  I apparently missed where you said you "want to add another VZW number".

You can't add another number as the app can only be set up for one number at a time.  You'd have to remove the current number syncing on the tablet and start syncing with a different number ... you can't have two or more numbers syncing at the same time.

I have an ellipsis tablet with Message+ downloaded and working with a Vzw

number. I have a second VZW number and want to set it up so I can receive

text on tablet?

As noted earlier, you can't have the tablet Verizon Messages app syncing with two numbers at the same time.  You can change which number is syncing on the tablet, but the app will only let you sync one number at a time.
