Yes! Every man in America with an iphone is having a problem with this! When you’re out with a woman and another woman sees the text on your phone, and it says the name! So they know another female just texted you. Its horrible. But try explaining why this is a problem to a boardroom of uptight apple executives. They dont understand dating! And if any of them are women, they wont want to change it. Just stupid!

Faketext is a hot new app that allow you to hide your real text messages on your iPhone. Check it out at faketext.com, you can go there straight from your iPhone since it is a webapp and is free.

Every one having the same problem regarding hiding or locking text messages on iPhones. Recently I downloaded a program from http://faketexts.com/ and it hides the iPhone SMS button and replaces it with a fake one that you can edit. Basically it doesn’t show all the girls I am talking to.

Hey i found a solution to your need, and it was bugging me ever since upgrading to the new iphone 3.0 firmware!!!! but there is a solution, i have been trying to convince Mcleaner to do this, as they did have this option in their previous version to 2.x firmware on the iphone, but ever since 3.0 came it doesnt work… so i have been using iBlacklist free version to just help disable the sms pop up and it WORKS!!! let me know if it works for you guys too…

cheers

In older firmwares (2.x , not sure about 1.x), this feature is only avalble when you set a pass code on your device!

I remember in one of the older firmwares when you disabled the text preview all you will see was “new text message” and that was freaking great..then on the next firmware update this was gone..apple needs to get their stuff right.. whats the point of hiding the text preview if you can still see the freaking name!

It’s absolutely a new feature. I subscribed to Kate in the past primarily for this feature. I’m VERY glad to see it in 3.0!
