MMS in the appstore

**Andy51081** · 01-07-2009, 09:39 AM

There is now an app in the appstore called MMS Photo Messaging

It allows you to receive for free but it currently costs about 35p/msg which is payed with credits bought through the app with paypal. They state that in the future they hope to lower the cost and even maybe get it to come out of your allowance.

Currently it looks like it only works if you are on o2, but its a step in the right direction for those who dont want to jailbreak at the moment.

This app only works for O2 Customers.

Interesting. Wonder if ATT will ever play ball?

Don't see it. Must only for for Americans.

**ltjbigshot** · 01-07-2009, 10:59 AM

This is a really good idea. it looks like the app just takes the text message you receive when you get a mms and just inputs the login and password and does all the work for you! i dont see how att could control if this app comes to iphones in america or not!

I just did. Very strange. Maybe it's making its rounds. I'll check later.

No showing in US store yet

**Andy51081** · 01-07-2009, 11:15 AM

search the author instead Ed Lea

*EDIT* Are you searching on your iphone or on pc? I search with iphone and see it

**metaljay** · 01-07-2009, 11:16 AM

yeh just noticed it, sadly when i tell friends about jail breaking, mms is usually what they do it for.

**ajl917** · 01-07-2009, 01:44 PM

Usually, searching the creator of the app will work, so I searched Ed Lea, and got nothing. BTW, I live in the US. I shouldve known that AT&T wouldnt allow this...

EDIT: From his site, http://iphonemms.net/

"This service is currently only compatible with UK iPhones on the O2 (UK) Network."

Could us AT&T users download the IPA from an online source, import it into iTunes and install it on our phones?????

Yup, same here :-(

**starsplayer7** · 01-07-2009, 02:31 PM

where is it i cant find it on the search or anywhere else.... plzz help

**MetallicaFan1991** · 01-07-2009, 02:39 PM

Its the same as the web app, which is only for O2 cutomers. I tried this app but it won't log me in. So I just rang O2 to put MMS back on my account and went back to using SwirlyMMS, which btw needs a new UI, especially for saving pictures.

No because:-
A) it hasn't been cracked and no point because it's free anyway
B) you need an O2 number and the four character password

**derrickb16** · 01-07-2009, 02:40 PM

well...this suck I was bouncing around until I read under it...damn u steve jobs!!

**fiNker** · 01-07-2009, 03:10 PM

Hmmm seems like mms will be outside of your contract, ie need to purchase credits...10 mms = £3.79, 30 mms = £11.00 and so on,
rip-off imo...

**DylanYo** · 01-07-2009, 03:14 PM

Well this has taken a while
I have to say I've been waiting on this since the old 4gigs were released.
In the mean time quip was a good substitute, but you still had to go to viewmymessage and type in the username and pass.
This will definitely be better.

**jpm.moreira** · 01-07-2009, 03:23 PM

ok guys, problem is the website they are having problems to make it work on mobile and pc.. soon they fix this issue all should be ok for us
iPhone maniac!!!
