By Mauricio

The SHAPE Services team let me know they’ve updated their IM+ app for the BlackBerry PlayBook tablet to version 1.3.1. We haven’t mentioned this app since its launch, so here’s a reminder of its features:

Chat in Windows Live Messenger/MSN, Skype, Facebook, Google Talk, Yahoo!, AOL/AIM/iChat, ICQ, Jabber and MySpace in one application. IM+ supports multiple accounts per service and stores chat history for each conversation on device. Both landscape and portrait screen orientations are supported.

Changes from and including version 1.3 include:

  • File transfer support (images, audio/video files, documents)
  • Chat history grouped by date
  • Option to hide “Offline contacts” group
  • Swipe to open keyboard
  • Optimization of memory usage
  • Added “Show Keyboard” button

IM+ for PlayBook is available for $7.99. For more info click here to check out the SHAPE Services page for IM+ on PlayBook or search for it on BlackBerry App World.
