BeeJive vs IM+

[Entertainment72]

BeeJive has been removed from the APP Store, too many bugs?

Beejive has been taken down from the App Store, we’re not quite sure why yet, but quite possibly it’s because it simply has too many bugs. After using it for the past couple of days, we’ve found it to be very buggy, and we wouldnt be surprised if Apple, or customer complaints led to its removal until bugs are ironed out.

I suppose that makes my decision much easier.. IM+ here I come.

It's still up in my App Store.

My bad, I read that on theiphoneuserguide blog. I see it on the App store as well.

I started using AIM Free Edition yesterday to text my wife. It works well. No landscape keyboard. Push notifications are quick and work very well.

Overall, it works for us since we will only text each other about 1-2 times a day while at work. We have not added other buddies so Beejive is not an option at the moment.

Start free. If that doesn't work, buy something that does.

Agreed - I started with the AIM Free edition, but wanted to bump up for more features/support for Facebook/Twitter. I also like the option to use Skype, though I haven't tried it out yet.

You can receive push for up to 3 days on IM+ without entering the App, nice! That is when the Apple finally releases the update.

Wow. I believe it's only 24 for Beejive.

Yeah, i'm really waiting on the push update. Push on AIM (Free) worked great. Occasionally received double-push notifications, but meh. Either way!

Will IM+ Lite have push? If so then why should I bother paying for the full version?

Why would you want to keep it active for 3 days if you're not logging in at least once?

BeeJive > IM+

Always and forever for my uses. AIM.
