Moto 360 2 says my device is not compatible with Verizon message

I've been using Verizon message plus on my Moto 360 2 since I got to watch. I had to replace my phone with another Note 8 and now I cannot load Verizon message plus on my watch as it says the app is not compatible with my device. This is annoying because now I don't receive text messages on my watch which was the biggest benefit of having a smartwatch. I've uninstalled The Watch master reset the watch reinstalled and every time I go back to the Play Store on the watch and try to install Verizon message plus I get the same message which is that the device is not compatible with the app

Hello RPMGSXR, thank you for contacting us. We know how irritating it can be when the biggest benefit of having a smartwatch stops working, and we're here to help. We want to make sure we're on the same page. You mentioned that you had Verizon Message + on your Moto 360 2 but then it stopped working when you got a new phone? Have you checked to make sure you have your Note 8 setup for number share?  Do you have the Mote 360 2 activated on your account?

Not sure what number share is?

And you asked if my watch is activated on my account, what account ?

Is the Moto 360 a Wi-Fi only model or can it connect to the cellular network?

I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.

It uses the phone. It connects to the phone with Bluetooth. It also has

wifi but you do not need to use it. It has always worked until I replaced

my phone. Now it says my device is not compatible when I try to install vzw

message app on the play store on the watch.

We want to make sure you have all the information you need regarding the Moto 360. The Moto 360 is a Wi-Fi only model. Does this help clarify?

Do you even read thesethese messages. This is ridiculous. I have a moto 360 2. Not a 360. It uses Bluetooth or wifi . This problem is a Verizon problem  Fix it

Why is Verizon not fixing this?

Great question RPMGSXR, and no worries. We will be glad to help address any concerns you have in mind. To clarify, now in regards to the question you had regarding your account. Are you currently already a a Verizon Wireless customer, and if so, are you having any issues with the service in your device?

That makes 2 of us in this thread, with the exact same equipment.  Not to mention all of the others experiencing this with other equipment.

A simple answer as to why we could load Message+ on our watches before, and now it doesn't even appear in the watch's Play Store, would be a good start!

It does appear in my watches play store but when I select it to install it

it says this version is not compatible with my device.
