We've all read the complaints and news articles about people not being able to receive text messages from others who have Apple devices when they've switched to non-Apple devices because the phone number is still somehow tied to iMessage. Having said that, how can Apple make it easier to rectify this problem?

A pop up that arises if someone is wiping their phone or removes their SIM card that takes them directly to signing out of iMessage. Same type of popup that asks you to turn off find my iPhone when wiping. For those that damage their phone or lose it, I really don't know.

Also while we're on the subject, it would be nice if Apple didn't turn off "Send as SMS" by default when they released iOS 7. I bet you this would eliminate a majority of the problems people are having sending messages to people who no longer are on iMessage and switched to another phone. It used to be on by default and people just don't know how to change that.
