Beta Beat: MobileChat iPhone AIM Client debuts

i have this app but it freezes the fone after like 5 messages is it just my phone or is this a bug thats yet to b worked out

so i downloaded the bsd system and the send song is working but the mobile chat isnt it says please wait connecting but i stays on there and doesnt do anything...any help?

hi i got the mobile chat app and it doesnt work on my iphone same with send song can you please help me with this i would greatly appreciate it!

I installed it, installed that chat and it worked great, until i connected it to ITUNES and i got this mean warning telling me that the Firmware on the phone was not the original and i needed to restore. I had no CHOICE but to RESTORE my iphone, it locked up telling i had to restore before use.

So i guess ill be waiting to see if apple ever releases an ICHAT/MMS update.

Anyone know why only half of my buddy list is showing up? i tried changing to apolo too and only a few of my contacts show up on either. Is there a setting i hvae to change?

Does this use the text message?

What the hell is the story with the audio ads? When I loaded this page an ad for ringtones automatically played some garbage pop song. Fairest TUAW, mine affections for thee shriveleth...

Nicely done, but god forbid that you should be logged in elsewhere. MobileChat throws up the AOL system message advising that you are logged in elsewhere and asking you to reply to the message with a '1.' And that completely completely locks up the iPhone. And I mean completely.

I'm not pleased with either app.
I tried appollo first on to have it crash every time I tried to sign in.
With mobile chat I'm a bit pissed since I've had to go find a wireless hotspot to restore my iPhone using iTunes (the phone will not power off, or respond at all for the last hour)

Erica, what do you use as your chat client under Mac OS X? Adium has become the de facto chat app because it's based on LibPurple and therefore benefits from all the cross-platform chat development that that base brings with it. I'm sure you spend most of your time developing for the iPhone these days (kudos!) but do give Adium a try (adiumx.com).
