Meebo is the best IM App on iPhone

The latest entry into the already crowded space of iPhone IM clients rules them all. Meebo for iPhone is now available in the app store and it is the best I have seen to date. And it is available for free.

I have tried many different multi-chat apps for iPhone so far (IM+, Trillian, eBuddy, Fring, Palringo and Nimbuzz to name a few) but I have never been so much impressed with the simplicity and usefulness of Meebo. It is blazing fast and supports every IM network on earth (like Google Talk, Jabber, MSN, AIM, Yahoo, ICQ, MySpace, Facebook) except Skype. It has push notifications for you to receive messages when you are not having the app open on your iPhone. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles of other apps but it is the simplicity that stands out.

Meebo is free. You don't have to buy premium apps to be able to receive push notifications for IMs or remove the promotional messages inside your chats. I had some issues with the Trillian iPhone app that I purchased. But Meebo just works in all those scenarios. Try it out and I'm sure it will be your go-to-app for IM on your iPhone.
