To delete a conversation, just long press on it from the main screen. We will be sure to also add it to the menu of the conversation in the next update.

 

[joek71]

Jon not working, i did long press and nothing happens soon as i let go it takes me in to the convo.

Do you have the latest version of MessageNow (version 1.04)? The very latest was only submitted about 1 hour ago.

If you do have the latest, do you press on the conversation and keep holding until the pop-up shows up?

 

[joek71]

now you tell me
I did update this morning, updating now. ALL GOOD, THANK YOU.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS AND KEEP UP THE AWESOME WORK.

AS someone else has mentioned I can only get this to work through WiFi, this is the only program on my phone not working through my phones data plan.

 

[cadon69]

Most of my buddies have Blackberries and iPhones, so this is really an awesome app for us. I can't wait until you have a Blackberry version also out there. Thank you so much for adding the delete convo option in the latest update.

 

[AndroidEd]

It works fine with my data.

Are you with Vodafone UK? We have had reports that this is happening and so far all the users that say so are with Vodafone UK. We are still trying to get to the bottom of why it's happening.

 

[elektrobix]

Ah, yes i am with Vodafone UK. I wonder if it's the same thing that causes the Peep app to not work only on Vodafone?

 

[AndroidEd]

Yeah, vodafone UK are common with these problems.

I, too, love the app but would love to see BB included on this. I just came from a BB and everyone I know is on it and they all use BBM. Also would love to see group conversations and sending files.

This is an app that will blow up once you start adding more abilities. Also, if you could do like BBM and add people by barcode.

I've been using this for a few weeks now. Great alternative to BBM on my old curve, since my main BBM peers now have iPhones.

Small issue: every once-in-a-while, i get a force-close when i send a message fresh after returning to the app (in response to a msg received). On Moto Droid.

I love the whole idea to this app and gave it a shot in my itouch and droid. It's pretty neat and seems to be working well so far.

Too bad I don't know too many people with android, but I'm going to try to convince all my iPhone people to download this app lol. A blackberry extension would be sweet, as most of the people that I know use blakberries.

Keep up the good work, it's a cool app!

 

[gtp4820]

Just downloaded this and it seems to be working nicely between my droid and the gf's iphone. Are you planning on adding the options to customize messagenow on the android platform? My gf said she can customize backgrounds, etc. on her ipohone whereas I can't customize anything on my droid. Thanks for a nice app!

 

[RyanB]

I've also been enjoying this, and if the developer is taking input, having the ability to choose the color of indicator light would be stellar...heck just having it blink at all would be helpful.

Installed and managed to grab my usual moniker before someone else did.

Couldnt agree more. the list of apps which only support only 1-2 platforms is long (ping, whatsapp, messagenow, bbm etc.) but the first one who can cross the 3 major smartphone OS-es (Android, iPhone and BB) and as many of the others (Windows, Palm, Symbian etc), can charge whatever they like! I would gladly pay for something which can cross them all!

So far the only thing i have seen on iPhone which is even close is whatsapp who supports iPhone now and is in beta testing for BBM. When can we get an update on BBM progress?

Great job Jon! Really appreciate what you guys are doing over an enflick

Thanks

[danlaw777]

how about including chat apps such as facebook, yahoo, and aim so we could have an "all-in-one"?

 

[G8D]

Could be very useful in the future for me, when more people have Androids/its multi-platform.

Needs account w/ passwords though..

Is the username linked with the phone itself or the install of the program? By this I mean, if I updated right now and reinstalled the app, would I be able to use the same U/N?

 

[brykins]

If by that time there won't be a way for you to do it through the app, we will be able to help you make the switch to a new device manually on our side.

Hi Jon - just re-installed this on to my new personal HTC Gero (T-Mobile G2) and of course, it tells me that my chosen username is already taken. How do I got about getting the username "transferred" to my new device?

 

[brykins]

Been a couple of weeks now since I have installed this on my new handset. I tried it out on my work handset and of course, set up my desired user name on that. I've not had any luck in getting my username "released" - have email you guys twice, had one response but no action.

What do I need to do to get my user name released so I can re-register on this handset? Must say - it doesn't look good if I can't take my user name with me when I change handsets.
