Messenger app stopped working on LG phone

My text messaging stopped working, it shows nothing and says the app keeps stopping.  I’m on hold for 2 hours with customer care waiting for a live person.

    Have you tried downloading a different messaging app, setting it as the default, and then switching back to the one you were using and then setting it to default?  In some cases, you just might have too many messages for the app to handle.  Have you tried clearing out all of your previous texts?

    Turned out to be a problem with Google.  The Android WebViewer in Chrome was crashing different apps last night.  I uninstalled Chrome on the phone and everything worked again, then enabled Chrome again and it’s fine now.  Thanks for replying.
