To kick off the month of October, Verizon induced a bunch of customers of its Message+ app to freakout with an announcement that it will shutdown the service by November 7. Nicely, that day as come and it seems that Verizon is giving everybody one other month to discover a substitute.
The help web page for Verizon’s Message+ app modified inside latest days to say that the service “can be totally discontinued on 12/9/24.” Once more, it used to say November 7 and that’s at this time. You’ve gotten an extension, people!
What’s Verizon+ and why are even speaking about? That’s an amazing query. Umm, Message+ was an app that Verizon began loading on units it offered as a bit of bloatware various years in the past. It was the Verizon Messages app, primarily, so an entire bunch of individuals used it by default as an alternative of Samsung or Google messaging apps as a result of it was there, prepared for use.
Because it was adopted by so many, and it apparently has options they love, the discontinuation of it’s not going over nicely. Whereas most ought to simply soar on Google Messages and get with the instances, I’ve seen a number of feedback across the web suggesting that Google’s choice is less than their requirements. It’s so bizarre to say that as somebody who has seen the Verizon Message+ app. It’s atrocious.
Anyhow, if you’re hanging onto Verizon Message+, you have got till December 9 to lastly, lastly make the change to Google Messages (obtain). Simply do it already and expertise RCS. Samsung did.
