  • Last month, Verizon announced that it would be shutting down its Message Plus app on November 7.
  • The app’s closure date has now been extended to December 9, 2024.
  • Verizon is encouraging users to switch to Google Messages.

Verizon has extended the lifespan of its Message Plus app, giving users a one-month reprieve from the previously announced November 7 shutdown. The new deadline for the service’s discontinuation is now December 9, 2024. (h/t: Droid Life)

This last-minute extension comes as a relief to many Message Plus users who were caught off guard by the initial announcement last month. The texting app, which used to come preloaded on Verizon devices, allows users to sync their texting conversations across multiple devices and has been a popular choice for Verizon customers.
