If your account got hacked it's because you use a weak a$$ password. I know you iphone users can't handle anything too complicated but you can use letters, numbers and symbols in your email password. You shouldn't use simple passwords like Hipster25 and JobsLove21.
Also there's Google Authentication but it might be a bit complex for iphone users to handle.
My account is authenticated and my passwords always contain upper case, lower case, numbers, and characters. I very much doubt someone cracked the password.
How do I know they didn't let someone make an apps account with the same name again but this time they did get into my account?
Why is gmail the only servcie where a period in the name doesn't matter?
iPhoneuser@gmail.com = iPhone.user@gmail.com
But for apps accounts it supposedly does matter, according to Google themselves. So if you make a Google Apps account, that comes with Gmail, and make it the same as someone with only Gmail but put in a period the person with the Gmail only account starts getting emails sent to them intended for the other party. This happened to me on 3 separate occasions and I have a feeling it was about to happen again.
Now, insert a period into my work email (actually remove it for work), hotmail, AOL, etc and it gets returned; undeliverable. I can put a period inbetween every letter of my gmail address and it still gets to me or remove the one I thought I purposely put there and it still gets to me. That just boggles my mind.
