IM+ All-in-One Messenger for Android

CNET Editors' review

If your friends are spread out in the vast ether that is the Internet, it's not easy to round them up in one app. IM+ All-in-One Messenger for Android not only makes it possible, but incredibly easy, too. It supports more networks than you'll even know existed and makes all of your buddy lists easy to navigate.

This app constantly works in the background, so it will use up some battery life and RAM. It syncs with AIM, MSN, Facebook, Google Chat, and dozens of other messaging clients -- so you'll need to log in to each. If you want popular messaging service Skype, you have to shell out $4.99 for the pro version. That kicks out the ads, too -- but you probably won't notice those anyway. IM+ All-in-One Messenger for Android doesn't piggyback on any one messaging app's layout. Instead, it combines all of the apps into a sleek, black layout with very smooth tabbed navigation. It's actually better looking than most of the individual messaging apps. The app even uses your standard notification noises for new chats and messages. Though your account gets connected in seconds, you can't view or edit your own or your friends' profiles.

The app does everything you'd expect a messaging app to do better than any other app in the Play Store. If you use more than one service to chat with your friends and family, there's no reason not to use it. IM+ All-in-One Messenger for Android shines above other chat apps by offering support for more networks in one of the most stylish packages around.

    "Does not work for Sprint Epic (Android 2.1 OS)"

    September 11, 2010  |   By lindacrowder

    Version: IM+ All-in-One Messenger for Android 3.0.11

    Pros

    None testable

    Cons

    Tried all of my accounts & provider's test accounts. Cannot get this to work.

    I wonder if this is only compatible with Froyo so will try again when Sprint rolls out Android 2.2 to Epics (currently only EVOs are on 2.2, Epics shipped with 2.1)

    Summary

    I use Pidgin on my laptops & haven't used a single-account IM client in 5 years, so was really looking forward to the same on my Epic.

    But alas it simply will not connect - tried various chat protocols individually in case was some error with one of them, tried test accounts provided by the software developer.

    All to no avail.

    The interface looks pretty clean & the idea is tried & true, so please fix this. So glad I didn't download the paid version.
