Only beta and if you can sideload you can try it, but it is here.

It should be available in the next little while - I suspect when Mango is officially launched!

Download here.

Enjoy!
 
Looks pretty crap compared to Kik unfortunately.
Got a couple of bugs also. They still got some work left todo before they publish this. If this is a beta, then their internal testing is not up to standard. The bugs in this version (1.0.1) is quite annoying, easy to replicate and happens way too often.
 
For those that didnt see, this is now out properly. And still is sucky :P
 
Lol

Yep i see it is out. I read they wanted something live for mango and hopfully are going to be adding functionality. But we will see. So far it has been very functional for me.
 
I installed whatsapp this morning and so far it seems to be working fine :) definitely quite a lot of updates and functionality needed but at least the first step is to get it out... now lets see if Mxit follows....I think you should offer Mxit some help @Rogue...
 
When a friend sends a message, I get "Blackberry user says:" instead of their name, which is kinda annoying. It also would have been better for it to create a tab on the message hub, because now everytime I have a message, I have to go and "launch" the app.
 
I just updated whatsapp now and well... Not much of a difference other than screen rotation? I think roguemat really needs to help them out. I would have said create another app but too many messaging apps out there...
 
They don't want it or don't need it. Also offered help. I also made a few suggestions but never received any kind of response.
 
Lets hope the App improves before they start asking the moola for it.
