why do I get multiple copies of the same text message

My wife has an android phone and when she sends me a text I receive it multiple times.

I'm afraid that's up to the phone of your wife, not yours. Or potentially on the side of your mobile service provider. There's no known issue or anything that could potentially be the cause of something like this, unless the text is specifically sent multiple times. It does sound like one of those specific "android issues", but don't rule out her mobile service provider!

It's happening to me as well, from people with iPhones. Must be a network issue, as we're all on AT&T.
