Did not know this even existed. Send SMS messages via you PC keyboard.

Hmmm. That could be pretty darn useful. Thx.

I have it installed. Looks like a decent small app. Once I received my security code, it downloaded my message history.

Did you already have the Verizon Messages app installed on your phone? I didn't.
I could SMS from the PC, and I received new SMS messages on both the PC & the phone, but I didn't have my history on the PC, nor did outgoing messages sync between them.
Installing the phone app now, but I'll have to see how I like it. It's a big app, and Verizon's apps are sometimes resource hogs.

Since I use WhatsApp for messaging, I use their web page while I'm at work so that I don't have to pick up my phone.

Just use your cell phone to scan the bar code that pops up on the screen and you're in. That easy.

Yeah I already been using the default messaging app with my Samsung S5.
