Who I have the same questioned this topic

First, I absolutely love the fact that I can actually send and receive text messages on my computer. I use Verizon Messages on all my devices, and it would take a lot to get me to use something else. But I'm having a terrible time with messages syncing on Windows. Right now, I have waited almost 5 minutes for my messages to sync. It wouldn't bother me so much except for the fact that during sync, the text box freezes, and I can't send or receive messages until the sync is complete. So, I thought I'd ask for either a bug fix, feature request, or perhaps someone knows a way around this problem. Is there a way to have the app sync in the background, and still allow me to send and receive texts messages while the app is syncing with my other devices?
