Verizon Messages Access

I am disappointed to learn that the Verizon Message Website will be discontinued on 12/11/23.  I depend upon it to communicate with friends, family and colleagues while at work.  I'm unable to use my mobile device while I'm at work.

Is there another way I can access text messages from a PC, now that the Desktop App for PC is no longer available and the Message Website will be discontinued?

If you use an Android and can figure out a way to pair the phone with your work computer (since you mention you can't have your phone at work, hence the need for web-based texts; maybe your employer would allow a one-time access for set-up?), there's Messages by Google

What if his company's IT policy blocks that website?

You might be able to run the Android app on your Windows computer.

How to run Android apps on Windows 11?

 

  • Launch the Microsoft Store and search for "Amazon Appstore."
  • Install and set it up, which will also prompt you to download the Windows Subsystem for Android.
  • Once the installation is complete, restart your PC.
  • Upon reboot, you'll find the Amazon Appstore in the Windows 11 App List. Launch it and sign in with your Amazon account to access the storefront.
  • Search for an app, and install it.
