View your text messages with the Verizon Messages Plus application

If you don’t want to log in to Verizon’s website, there’s a more smart solution you can use, which is the Verizon Messages Plus app. It’s a free feature with no monthly charge or subscription fee.

The Verizon Messages Plus texting app lets you sync your text messages across multiple devices. You can download the app from the Google Play Store for Android phones and the App Store for the iPhone. It also has a desktop and web app version from Verizon’s official website.

Once you download the app, it will request you to sync the devices you want to check text messages from.

With the Verizon Messages Plus app, you can text, make and receive calls on devices other than your phone, such as a tablet. You can also do other things, including message scheduling, HD video and voice calls, sending eGift cards to family and friends, plus much more.
