IM+ 6 Brings BBM Functionality to iPhone, iPad




SHAPE Services has announced a new version of their popular instant messaging application, IM+, which now comes with a new feature called ‘Beep’.

IM+ comes in both free and paid form and supports most IM standards, as well as the most popular social networks, including Facebook and Twitter.

Just when you thought things couldn’t get any better, SHAPE coded a bunch of new features for users of the application and deployed them all in version 6.0 - now available from the iTunes App Store for iPhone and iPad.

The flagship addition in this update is, of course, Beep, a free mobile-to-mobile in-app messenger.

It borrows functionality from Apple’s own iMessage and Blackberry’s BBM, and even goes beyond by providing cross-platform functionality.

SHAPE Services explains: “We figured you've been looking for a free alternative to SMS for a while now. And now we've got that right in IM+. Available for iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch and other mobile devices that your friends use IM+ on: Android, BlackBerry and Windows Phone.”

“Whenever you send and receive text messages, photos, video or voice messages, IM+ Beep will make sure that your message was successfully sent and notify you when it is safely delivered. Push will make incoming messages instantly pop up on your device.
Always on, always instant, always fun,” says the company.

What else? You can now share what's on your mind with your local community by using the updated Neighbors feature that now support Shouts.

Another new addition is the cool Angry Birds theme for avid fans of the Rovio-developed puzzler, and there is added support for "Invisible" status in Google Talk, tweaked IM+ performance and a refined interface.

The ad-supported IM+ is free and the Pro version goes for $1.99 / 1,59 €. It’s compatible with all iDevices and requires only iOS 3.0.
