To be honest, it doesn&#8217;t cause the Google Voice app to crash or be unable to receive texts. However, after upgrading my iPhone 5 to iOS 7, I see this message continually after launching Google Voice and then signing into my account. Pressing the OK button dismisses the pop-up window only to have another window pop-up. No amount of pressing OK breaks the loop. Even worse, pressing the Home button doesn&#8217;t take me out of the app. Only a soft-reset gets the iPhone 5 out of the loop.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve reinstalled the app several times. And, yes, I connected it to iTunes as the message recommends. It turns out that this may be a somewhat common problem after upgrading to iOS 7. The &#8220;fix&#8221;, unfortunately, is a hard reset and restore. Anyone who has done that on a &#8220;mature&#8221; device knows that this can be a long process. So, I&#8217;ll try this on Friday evening when I have some time. In the meantime, it is a good thing I also have an Android phone so I can continue to deal with text messages using Google Voice.<\/p>\n<p>You can see what others have said about this problem in the Apple Support Communities site:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/discussions.apple.com\/message\/23021909#23021909\">ios 7  push notifications not working<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The biggest headache iOS 7 has caused so far (less than 12 hours after installing it) is that it breaks Google Voice.
