I think the time has come for me to jump the iPhone ship. The announcement of the
Google version of the Galaxy S4 at I/O was the clincher. But I am not 100% sold on the idea, mainly because the S4 is an ugly brute, but also because I fear for the apps and innovation I will miss. Help me out, specifically in finding a worthy replacement for my beloved
Mailbox app.

Is there any way to block the incessant iMessages and Facetime requests from a particular person? For the past few months, I've been getting near-daily iMessages and Facetime requests from someone I don't know. It's pretty clearly a kid, and I can't get them to believe that they are sending the messages to the wrong person -- if I reply and tell them that, they either won't believe me, or they respond by asking me over and over what my name is and what school I go to, and do I know so-and-so's cousin, etc., etc.. It's maddening.

As of yesterday I no longer receive iMessages on my iPhone. I get them on my ipad and Mac, however.

I want to know why in Google Hangout it no longer says "Theirname is typing..." when the other person in the hangout is typing in the chat window (or "Theirname has entered text" when they've written something but haven't sent it). It's gone, and I miss it and want an explanation so I can move on with my life.

iPhone filter: Dad and I are on the same Verizon plan each with identical iPhone 4Ss (that was clumsy) purchased at the same time ... but our texts to one another are green, not blue. Now that I think of it, I think most of the texts of mine that should be blue are green.
