IMO beta instant messaging client updated - Now offers image previews, location sharing and more

We've mentioned the imo multi network messaging client in the past, back when they first launched in beta and now they've rolled out the latest version that adds some great features to the mix. The latest additions to the app:

  • Location Sharing: Let your friends know where you are quickly by sharing your location
  • Image Preview:  Preview pictures you send and receive using imo
  • Chat History: Option to save and view your chat history in the app 

Managing a lot of instant messaging clients on BlackBerry has never been really easy, while RIM offers native clients for it having an all-in-one solution is a better way to go. Having an all-in-one solution that is free, makes it even better.

for me, it's a good alternative to IM+ .. been using the beta for almost a month now ..

Is this a battery draining app as most messenger apps are?

Wretch 12

Yes, if not a lot more intensive than IM+.

Nevertheless, it's a great app - and it'll be much better once it's out of beta, I've reported a quite a few bugs and given them a few suggestions which they seem to have considered. Though it's already better than IM+, it's free!

Ate my 9700 battery in a day, when it usually lasts around 3-4 (with gtalk on). Uninstalling

Here's how i use both IM+ and IMO Beta:

- IM+ = Gtalk, Jabber, MSN and all other IM serices

- IMO = Skype Chat

Excellent app. Wish i could send my messages simply by hitting my trackpad instead of hitting "ENTER" though :) (Or at least, having the choice in the settings)

Been so happy with it so far, allows me to get on Skype, coz there isn't a Skype app available for Hong Kong BB users
