Message+ for Mac Monterey

Is there going to be a Message+  update that supports Mac Monterey?  I just updated my 2015 MBP and it now instantly crashes on start.  Even though it's always been a crashy product, I use it a lot on my MBP.  I would not have updated to Monterey if I had known that Message+ would not work.

Thanks

We want you to get the most from the Message+ service, usmaak. Thanks for reaching out but sorry to hear about the issues after the update. Is the application updated with the latest version as well? What other issues have you been experiencing? Looking forward to hearing back. -Chris

I updated the application.  I also deleted it and reinstalled it.  It still crashes upon starting.  I've always had stability issues with it.  It crashes pretty often and gets very slow sometimes.

Updated Yes.  Completely deleted and reloaded Messages + App with same results.  What I am experiencing is the App will not open.  Keeps generating an error report.

is Verizon support going to provide any info on this or let this problem grow?

I was able to get it working on macOS Monterey (12.0.1) by changing this setting:
Security & Privacy -> Privacy -> Contacts: Uncheck "Message+"

I can't see contacts's names anymore but the application does work again. The specific error messages in the console are:

fault	10:46:21.724812-0700	Message+	Change history operation performed with no stores

 The application appears to have the correct entitlement to access the address book so I'm not sure why this error is popping up.

No other app has been affected by this latest software update.  The VERIZON MESSAGES + took the hit.
