I can't contain myself not to release what's in my head about this new update from yahoo messenger app for the iPhone.
I just updated my old version yesterday and i'm impressed by its new features.
It now allows video calling which is a plus for the users of iPhone 4 due to its front-facing camera. In contrast for the 3GS users, you could still use it, however, the other party will obviously see the output of the single camera on the back. Needless to say, you can flip the back part of the iPhone so your chatmate could see your face.
I tested the call feature too. I still can't believe it, (although Skype has this kind of feature for the iPhone), the purpose is well enacted and simply justified. I tried to call my friend who was online on her laptop, realistically, the reception is intelligible and crystal clear.
Magically, i noticed that this app carries a blazing speed whenever you open it. previous vers were quite slow in authenticating to get into the "online" status. Now, the difference compared to the older version is truly evident. Multi-tasking is at its finest, you press the home button and the app disappears, but technically, it's still running on the background, allowing to receive notifications you sure wouldn't want to miss.
Barriers gone and unbarred, im so happy now that at the expense of a smartphone, i can call and video chat with my ym buddies and yep! windows live buddies who are using their laptops or desktops or iPhones online. Just a one buzz a way, and you're good to go.
If you haven't downloaded yours yet. Get your fingers swooshing with the App Store to check for updates and it should DL automatically after you entered your pw.
note: requires iOS 3.0 or later
