Free Texting

[adani721]

I was wondering if you guys knew of any Free texting apps that were good. I was looking online and found one from Pinger got pretty good reviews. Are there any other apps you would suggest??

a while back there was an article (rumor) posted that BBM would be coming to the Android platform and then to the iPhone py the end of the year. Here is (still) hoping! If it did it would be AWESOME!!!

I like ChompSMS, I use AdFree to help reduce the ads that go along with the free version.

Very customizable, I also like the way it displays a popup window to allow you to respond without unlocking your phone.

Doesnt Chomp SMS still charge SMS fees with your carrier?

website says it's free so does the other person on the other end need to be running the program as well? and second (prolly' a stupid question) but it's free to SEND and RECEIVE correct??

Sill searching for ya adani. Bloody hard to find an app that works around the carrier sms fees. Thats probably why google voice is $15 bucks lol.

I appreciate the help mate, no worries though. Don't waste your free time searching when you could be using it elsewhere. I feel i'm gonna have to stick with unlimited texting, figure I could find an app and would allow me to save a few bucks per month...Thanks for all the help Mike appreciate it.
