The Verizon people aren't listening. When they switched to CHAT, it forces the message to CHAT which does not sync with other texting apps.  You will not see the message unless you use their app. I missed several important texts because I was using a stock text app and three other person was using the Verizon app.  Why can't anyone address this issue?

I'm pretty sure it's not fixed.  "Chat" messages don't appear on other texting apps.
