Exclusive Look: Messagenow - iPhone and iPod Touch Messaging

November 13, 2009
Overview Ting Interactive is about to launch Messagenow the iPhone and iPod Touch messaging app.  Messagenow will allow iPhone and iPod Touch users to send messages to each other worldwide.  If that isn’t enough, Messagenow  from Ting Interactive will be free, yes I said FREE, and the developers say that it will always be free.  Way to go guys!  I’ve been playing around with Messagenow for a week or so and I dig it.  If you use the developer’s other offering Textnow to send free unlimited SMS messages to your friends you’ll want Messagenow too.   The UIs for Messagenow and Textnow are the same and absolutely fabulous so adapting will be a snap. Features The goodies in Messagenow include:
  • Send free messages to iPhones  and iPod Touches world wide
  • Push notifications
  • Contact integration with your iPhone’s contacts
  • In app selectable ringtones
  • Contact specific ringtones
  • Unique screen name
  • Buddy List
  • Emoticons
  • Themes and backgrounds
One thing I want to point out is that Messagenow integrates with your iPhone or iPod Touch contacts, including photos.  So the message screen includes your contact photos.   I wish my iPhone did that! Message now will launch soon.  Check AppAdvice for the latest news and updates.
