Default My best apps

I used to think AIM was the best application for iPhone and I still do. But getting a free version is difficult. The thing I like about it is, push notification. However I thought this function comes with the service but apparently not. So, I got the idea on what else I can get push facility? Can anyone fill up?

I am confused by your post but I think you are asking for another service besides AIM that pushes? And obviously you want it free. But I would recommend spending the $9.99 on Beejive. I do not like spending too much money on anything but I am glad I spent it on this. It is amazing. They did drop Facebook support for now due to some issues but are saying it should be back soon.

I agree. Beejive is great. Initially I had Nimbuzz which I still think is a good app and worked fine. Then when all the push business started I switched to Beejive and haven't had any problems. Although, if it had skype it would have been even better

I'm guessing you wanted to know what other push apps are there...

I have:
  • AP Mobile - News App, but I don't receive many push notifications
  • BeeJive (best instant messenger client ever; not just for iPhone, but BB also)
  • Evernote - best notes application. comes with a desktop app; all for free.
  • BillMinder - bill reminder app
  • Occasions - Reminds me of birthday & anniversaries
  • NotifyMeFree - Free task app
  • SimplyTweet - Twitter app for

*note* Evernote is free, but for more storage and features, there is a cost
*note* SimplyTweet is $4.99, BeeJive is $9.99, BillMinder $1.99 and Occasions is $0.99.
*note* prices are subject to change

You can also find Apps that utilize push here:

Best application means a application that provides all fun. And fun means DIRTYMOUTH. It's a tremendous application to make fun with friends. Users who are using it are addicted to it.

Having just gotten my miffs on Aroundme, I have to put this right near the top of my list. What an app and its free. All I can say is phenomenal.

Also just played Brothers in Arms, brilliant war game. Its as good as a games consul.

I just wrote a review on it: http://www.iwikiphone.com/review/275.../brothers-arms

What's so good about Beejive? The only problem I have with AIM is that it's so laggy..it freezes on me whenever I receive texts and I can't type during those 2 or 3 seconds. Is this problem solved with Beejive?

I never had those problems with BeeJive. So that's a problem with AIM or your device.

BeeJive, IMHO, one of the best 3rd party apps in the App Store. I'm not even putting it in the Social Networking category. Instead, I'm putting it in the "ALL" category.

Options after options to customize to your liking. Themes and more. It was worth it and I don't IM much.

I have never had a problem with Beejive. Just added Tune wiki Limited. Its awesome! Get the lyrics to any song on 500 radio stations around the world.

Think it might be the best music app I have found with the exception of Pandora
