Rather than doing a quick port of our existing iPhone client to get an iPad version published as fast as possible, we redeveloped our product from the ground up specifically for the iPad and the additional screen real estate that it offers.
Seattle, WA (PRWEB) January 19, 2011
Agilemobile.com Ltd., an ISV with its primary focus on development of software for mobile devices, today announced the release and immediate availability of the iPad version of its award winning Agile Messenger instant messaging client. Agile Messenger HD is available for immediate download from Apple's iTunes App Store.
Agile Messenger HD is a multi-protocol instant messaging client for mobile devices that provides a seamless connection to the public instant messaging networks of Live Messenger®, AIM®, Yahoo! Messenger®, ICQ®, GoogleTalk®, Facebook® IM and any XMPP server. Features include Agilemobile.com's proprietary multi-media messaging technology that enables users to send instant picture and voice messages from the iPad to any other mobile device or PC on the same IM network, irrespective of the client they are using. Agile Messenger HD for the iPad utilizes iOS 4.2 multi-tasking support and push notifications to provide an always connected experience to the end user. In addition to instant messaging, Agile Messenger HD also provides full Facebook support, enabling users to update their status, write on their friend's walls, post comments, view their news feed and receive instant Facebook notifications. The company plans on releasing an update to the iPad version of Agile Messenger in the near future, making it into a universal app that supports all iOS devices, and adding support for the popular Skype IM network.
Agile Messenger HD is available as a Lite and a Pro version. The Lite version is a free download and provides full Facebook functionality, along with unrestricted access to Facebook IM, and gives the end-user the option to add additional IM networks with a small in-app purchase. The Pro version provides unrestricted access to all of the IM networks for a special introductory price of $2.99 USD.
“We are very pleased with the results of our development efforts”, said Timon Haringa, Technical Director and co-founder of Agilemobile.com Ltd., “rather than doing a quick port of our existing iPhone client to get an iPad version published as fast as possible, we redeveloped our product from the ground up specifically for the iPad and the additional screen real estate that it offers. The result is a productivity tool that offers a desktop quality Instant Messaging solution for today’s road warriors, enabling them to be in constant communication with all of the popular IM networks, regardless of where they are or what they are doing – making Agile Messenger a best in class solution”.
