AIM app with push is live

[gr8tfly]

Yep. Worked fine. I was even logged on at the same time on the Mac. I sent a message from the iPhone, exited AIM app, and the other party replied. I got the typical pop-up message and alert - just like getting a SMS.

They need to make it so that there's an easy way to sign off.
Maybe I'm missing something, but it seems like I have to change the preferences from sign off immediately to sign off after X minutes every time I want to log in...

 

[sananda]

That works great. I'm using the free version.

 

[cocky jeremy]

Damn. I'm not seeing it yet.

I thought of that too, but there's a button in the upper right that says "Sign Out". I'm guessing you can leave the "stay signed on for xxx" setting alone, and when you don't want to get notifications just manually sign out.

delete then reinstall from your phone. that is the best way to get this version.

Damn. Didn't work. In iTunes or the iPhone app store. I'll keep checking.

That's where i tried. lol. I give up. I'll just keep checking.

I wish there was a way to change it so that it only pushed new ims to me when I wasn't also signed in on my computer (or even better after I go idle) because getting an im twice all the time is going to be very annoying (once on my computer and once on my phone)

What are you trying?

Literally delete the app. Redownload it from the App Store. You now have push.

Ahh.
It's in the 'My Info' tab. Thanks. That's a lot less annoying.

Don't be logged in on your phone when you're at the computer then...



GAHHH TRIPLE POST SORRY

I just noticed and got it too. Seems to be working very well!

 

[chrisgeleven]

Awesome, about maybe 0.5 to 1 seconds between a message and a push notification to my phone. Sick.

 

[OrangeCuse44]

Quite impressive actually..

 

[chhhrrriiisss]

This is awesome! I just wish it had landscape keyboard incorporated into it.

I did. Weird. It was telling me 2.1 or whatever was the current version when i went to re-download it, but i downloaded anyway and it was 3.0, ha.

 

[bryantsiphone]

sweet.

thats really annoying to have to do

 

[KilGil27]

I agree. It should be able to know when I'm available on my computer, and just not send notifications to my phone until I go away or idle or something. That would be ideal... and really just make the most sense

 

[lindsayanng]

I still wish there was an iChat instead of AIM
