Verizon Messages (Message+) is no longer supported

For Android™ devices, Verizon recommends switching to Google Messages as the replacement app for messaging.

Apple Messages is recommended for iPhone® and iPad® devices.

Message+ privacy requests - The Message+ app was discontinued in December 2024. If you are a former Message+ customer, you can request access to personal information by submitting a privacy inquiry form. We do not have information that can be corrected or deleted. You also may appeal a previously denied individual rights request decision through the privacy inquiry form. Please select I am a Verizon customer that uses or used a different product or service and then select Message+ from the dropdown list.

On the local device, text messages (SMS and MMS) will remain in local storage and will be accessible from within a replacement messaging application such as Google Messages.
