Future of Verizon Message+?

[tecknotot]

Recently, Verizon announced that they will start using Google Messages as their default for text messaging since it supports RCS.  

I was curious if Message+ is getting sunsetted/retired OR will soon be updated to support RCS?

Thank you,

I would like to know too.  I actually like and use messages+ which works on my android phone, and iPad both.  Google messages won’t work as an iPad app.

Sent and thank you for a prompt response.

We haven't received a Private Note from you. Did you run into any errors when sending that through?

I sent a private message the same day I got your response.  No errors unless a private message means something else.

What 'details' do you need beyond the question @tecknotot  stated?  This is a public forum and the question didn't involve any private confidential information. We're all (most of us, a lot of us) are interested in answers to this threads question.

Well, there is now a Win10 Message+ version 3.0.0 in the Microsoft Store, if you haven't seen the couple threads today about it.  Looks like the Verizon Messaging Team is working on getting it working again, but they may have more work to do.  Looks like they may have placed it in the Store prematurely, unless they did it for testing.

Yeah I saw that earlier this week in the news but it does not support RCS yet.

[mama23dogs]

They didn’t message me.  Classic.  They either message the wrong person, or no one.  
I know people hate messages+.  But it works across platforms, which for me is great.

[tecknotot]

I love Messages+ as well. However, my thing is I want it to support RCS and right now it does not.

I am extremely surprised they have replied. I have 3 request for private message replied to all of them and no response
