<p>Here are 5 awesome I phone chat apps to choose from:</p>
<h2><strong>Beejive IM</strong></h2>
<p>Beejive is most likely the most popular IM client available not only because it will support a large variety of messenger clients,</p>
<p>including face book, Google talk, yahoo Messenger, MSN, Mobile Me, MySpace IM and so on,</p>
<p>but the IM client also provides a complete customization feature,</p>
<p>a justification for Beejive&#8217;s extended stay in the IM client business, reliable not only for I phone but black berry.</p>
<p>Beejive IM will allow image sharing, provide support for several accounts, and allow customizable backgrounds and several other features, providing an efficient service for the most hardcore IM users.</p>
<h2><strong>Zinzzchat</strong></h2>
<p>Zinzzchat, on top a myriad of features designed to ensure efficient chatting,has the added advantage of</p>
<p>making available a free online ad enabled version that will allow you to test drive the app before making the choice to purchase.</p>
<p>Admittedly Beejive operates similarly to Zinzzchat and selecting which of these two to use mostly comes down to preference, with Zinzzchat supporting IM clients such as</p>
<p>AIM, MSN, Google Talk, Hyve, Facebook chat, MySpace, Yahoo messenger and a host of other clients.</p>
<h2><strong>IM+</strong></h2>
<p>IM+ along with Beejive and Zinzzchat are three of the most popular chat apps on the market,</p>
<p>with IM+ mostly boasting of the same features as the other two but with one or two additional ones such as the ability to view twitter feeds and chat histories through one&#8217;s device or the web.</p>
<p>IM+ also offers a free trial version and will support AIM, Google talk, Skype, twitter, face book chat, ICQ to mention but a few.</p>
<h2><strong>Verbs</strong></h2>
<p>It is true that verb doesn&#8217;t offer nearly half of the features that Zinzzchat, Beejive or IM+ support, but what verbs has going for it is how good the user interface looks;</p>
<p>verbs mostly has potential to become more than it is right now with the addition of more advanced features than the likes of local notifications that leave it wanting.</p>
<p>The app however has cheapness going for it. Verbs support Google talk and AIM.</p>
<h2><strong>KIK Messenger</strong></h2>
<p>While KIK messenger has the advantage of an extremely easy to use interface, it suffers from the fact that it is proprietary,</p>
<p>in that to connect and chat with someone else using KIK messenger, the target must also be running KIK messenger, which is an irritating restriction.</p>
<p>And while the app additionally supports android, blackberry as well as IOS, it is not possible to link the more popular clients such as AIM;</p>
<p>as such KIK messenger is best if you have only a few people you intend to talk to and can get them to download the app, in which case this will be able to work for you.</p>
