Worse yet, on my iPhone 3G I can't get the code from the Authenticator app and then log on to the Google+ app before it expires... it's just too slow :/

What are the advantages of using this app? It seems like a lot of overhead for recieving information that can be sent in a text message.

No text message costs, I'd think. And I've had text messages take several minutes to arrive, websites rarely run that slowly.

For myself: I've got an iPod. No text messages there (I have Voice, but not everyone does).

If you have an iPhone, isn't it required to subscribe to an unlimited SMS plan?

And, previously, not after the contract runs out.
