I use Message+ on my PC. It is great to be able to respond to texts with a real keyboard. My only complaint is the annoying popup that instantly tells me to set up Backup Assistant.
I do not use Backup Assistant. My contacts are stored in Exchange-linked accounts. I do not have contacts saved to my phone, because then I would need an additional service like Backup Assistant, when presently I just sync my email and my contacts live there. I would disable on-phone contacts if I knew I could. I went onto the website as linked and cannot set up Backup Assistant; this is a work phone and I am not the account manager. But I still get this annoying popup in the otherwise-handy Messages+. Maybe someone at Verizon could look into adding a "do not ask again" option to this popup?
Additionally, I tried to use the "send feedback" option in Messages+ to send a link to this post, and I get a popup in Outlook 2013 saying "The command line argument is not valid. Verify the switch you are using." So direct feedback apparently doesn't work either.
I wanted to chime in because I am having this issue as well. I do not want to use Backup Assistant. And the Get Backup Assistant notification keeps popping up on my PC. I am running Windows 8.
Quick bump to see if anyone from Verizon can offer something here? If not I may just ditch the Message+ thing altogether. A popup seems like such a minor thing, until it pops up while writing emails, during presentations, during technical support desktop sharing...
