Really?? That's odd! I have never had a problem except for the beginning (when version 3.0 came out). Make sure you have the login time you want selected in the settings.
I'm reasonably happy with IM+. I use AIM, Facebook and Twitter connections. I'd consider Beejive. Can someone try to sell it over IM+. I need a reason to make the switch. Why is Beejive better?
Just checking but...you did set the proper log out time in the options, yes? Cuz I've never had this issue.
another new beejive lover here!!!
I did have problems with facebook logging me out on beejive when I logged into facebook but those problems seemed to have resolved themselves once I did the update!
Regardless though - I think this is a fantastic app!!! Well worth the $10 to me (although I will be pissed once the price drops - lol)!!!

I have them both, I originally got IM+ after the Beejive 3.0 update as I found it rather sluggish on my iPhone 3G, however now with the recent update it is back to performing well for me. I use it mainly for MSN and Google Talk, both of which perform flawlessly for me except for the occasional failed IM thanks to fAilT&T.
I just much prefer the UI of Beejive over IM+ and it just feels more intuitive to use so unless you need Skype support or Twitter push then I would recommend Beejive, it just seems to be a classier program.
There's this website that exists... I believe it's called something like beejive.com. They have a support email that transfers text that you type to the developers of the app who can resolve things. It also has support forums. That might be a logical step rather than whining about the best IM client in the app store being a waste.
I have both also, I kind of like the UI of IM+ a little more, I just like to swipe between chats easier then in beejive. I bought beejive 1st then IM+ on sale $5.
I do like the twitter push of IM+, I could be perfectly happy with IM+ BUT...it takes sooooo long to load the app. To me it feels like trying unlock your front door but you keep fumbling the keys in the dark.
Start up for IM+ with only my twitter account active was 30 sec
Start up for Beejive with 6 different accounts: 5 sec
Either one is not bad, IM+ more options but Beejive has better performance.
My vote is for Beejive. I can't stand what seems like forever to reply to a IM.

I am, but I am not responding 1. I want to be logged in on the phone and computer. I think you were onto something though, I set it to stay online 7 days, and the change sticks but it's almost as if it's not taking effect. Maybe I'll email support.
Probably a good idea. It's not an inherent limitation of the software, so something somewhere is probably bugged.
