1. 4/5lol--absolutely *everyone* hates spamming their friends. everyone.

   so i decided to try this out, tho i'm perfectly happy with textplus (real texting, for free, no spam) and ebuddy (ditto, works great). i'm very visual, and i use twitter a lot and this app adds a twitter client and has lovely wallpaper plus you can add your own plus you can get email notifies, which i like because i'm often in my email. so overall, i like it. mine said it sends out *one* spam a day, the first msg you send. i sent one, yep, spam. i sent a second, yep, no spam. so i'm gonna stick with im+ for what it does and how it looks (assuming it keeps working smoothly, sometimes a problem with apps i've gotten). but i notice that THE IM SPAM IS WILDLY UNPOPULAR and NOW PPL GIVE THIS APP 1 STAR. i cap that in case the shap ppl skim the reviews quickly, to catch their eye. wonder if they'll drop the spam on the next update? but i gave 4 stars (-1 for the spam) because it was just one spam and everything works, inclu (for me at least) the browser.

2. 5/5I would give it100millon*

   This is my favorite app for my iPhone! I notice when I'm at work(hairdresser) that this app is open all day! It's great I don't have to be logged into myspace on a laptop to chat! The facebook was great after I figured it out there was a probelem my friends told me it did the same thing to them but it told me to log in on my desktop so I did nd it had this weird thing hard to explain somthing about restoring my account, it gives u a location and what they r doing. Turns out I was about to get hacked for giving this app my info I'm from the USA and someone was trying to log in from Germany, I immediatly got on my iphone and reset my app, logged in on the desktop and thank god! It sent it right in time! Now my app works great and I can chat all day! Overall this is a great app ad I would reccomend it! If you are one of those ppl with 90millon network accounts like me this is a great app to manage them all on! And it's free! It also has a web browser on it!!!

3. 3/5Nice, but needs work

   This app nicely integrates most popular services and provides a photo-sharing service for free. That's a nice touch for me, because I'm addicted to Direct Connections on regular AIM. It also doesn't hijack the system sound and fail to return it to, say, iPod, the way AIM for iPad does. Overall, though, it feels half baked. Grounding isn't sorted out... Often when switching from an app to IM+, the program will show the last message I received while IM+ was running, rather than showing the last message I received while it was in the background. (If I multitask away on someone saying TTYL, but they send a "Wait!" and then "Send me your number," you are returned to "TTYL" and have to scroll down to see the two new messages. Finally, the is a long pause when you switch back to this app... They keyboard will appear, but the program wont be usable or accept input for a good 5 second... At least for me, on iPad 1 and 2. The browser can hang sometimes, and there's no tap and hold to open in Safari-- you have to open your link in their browser first, then press the Safari-ish icon. Similarly, you can't copy and paste chats, which I believe is the same behavior as in Aim for iPad, but it's annoying. A feature request is the ability to turn off the auto-hide of the keyboard. It disappears at the most inconvenient times and I'd rather it just stay there all the time. The good parts include picture sharing as I said, as well as the customizable sounds and backgrounds. A little more work, and it's there!

4. 3/5There is a reason why I use IM

   I use it because it could send files or pics by using msn, aim and yahoo. It's a shame they don't have Skype, in which it's on the paid version but that's ok, I got an app for that. What they don't have is a video chat. THAT's why I kept the Skype app. But all in all, it's a must for anyone that, not only you can chat but to send files and pics. It even has a built in wifi if your friends send you the link but you can't google anything, which stinks though. One thing that I'm giving three stars is that it few times it alert me on whoever chats. But when I'm waiting for another chat of the same person while I'm online, nothing happen. The reason I said that because when I went back to IM, it shows the rest of the chat about three to seven minutes ago. And my friend from the other side was saying, " Hey, are you there? Hello? " and I was disappointed that I apologize my friend on this app. Please update it. It still isn't fixed yet on that problem.

5. 4/5It works!!!

   This is actually good, no need to sign up on some websites. I'm using Y! and MSN and they're doing good. This app doesn't offer much of the features unlike the rest but it's simplicity made it somewhat flawless with bugs (I hope) I haven't encountered any problems at all. It shows offline contacts, edit your status and also once you log out, then someone sends you an offline message, if you log back in you'll receive that offline message (since push is still not released by Apple). It has a simple user interface but so far it's working properly - and that's what I need. Hopefully they will update this app to add more features, but hey it's free and working so go get it! UPDATE: 8/28 I found a bug, somehow it doesn't accept emoticons, if you try to send one to your contact, you'll get signed off (and an error message shows up). You have to go back to your status and click Online again to sign back online. When your contact sends you an emoticon, it just displays plain text. So hopefully they'll fix this...
