Briwes1, I know that this issue with the background sync is less than ideal. For the best resolution, the issue needed to be lifted up to Apple and the creator of Messages+. We're awaiting them to recreate the issue to come up with a solution. Please bear with us while we work to get this issue resolved for you.

After about a month of no background refresh action with Message+, on Sunday 4/23 my phone started displaying notifications for Message+ with the app in the background. Just really confusing. All I have done to the phone since experiencing the symptoms has been restarting it a few times. Out of the blue it started again with no app or iOS update. Did VZW do anything server side to fix this?
YES! I had the exact same experience. No changes to settings on my phone, no app update and no iOS update but now it works. Had to be a change on their server communication to the app to keep the connection active.
