Bought and used PING for one week. Really buggy. Found YAK a couple of days ago. It's been great. PING is now a backrow benchwarmer.

This app is perfect! Works better than advertised. SMS messages are in fact free and are sent and received immediately. Works better than native AT&T message App that comes with the iPhone!!!! Get this app!
********************************************
Yak is the new exciting messaging App you and your iPhone friends have been waiting for! No SMS charges whatsoever, messages sent via YAK are FREE.
YAK to one person like SMS or have a YAK with all of your friends at once.
Try it, it's great fun.
Why bother with more tiresome usernames and IDs to remember, YAK simply uses your email address to link up with friends - in the same way as MSN Messenger.

This app is great, simple and seems to be the most reliable of it's type. I have them all, ping, messi.im, whatsapp and they're all unreliable. Yak is the best.
********************************************
Easy one time setup and then you'll never want to use SMS again.....!
Just like Blackberry messenger (BBM) YAK uses a tiny amount of your data plan to send messages between iPhones, not your SMS provider.
No scam here, no annual, monthly, daily or message by message costs. Just download the App, add your friends by their email address and then start texting for FREE.

"For ages I have wondered when some Genius would come up with an SMS that would allow groups to Chat Via SMS. But on the other hand had dreaded seeing the bill at the end of the month. At last someone has cured both ills and developed Yak. Easy to use and FREE. Easy to add contacts to existing chat sessions and keeps track of the sessions and friends. I can see Im going to lose a lot of time chatting on this application.
*******************************************
It doesn't matter where in the world you or your friends are, it is still free and works anywhere that your iPhone does.
Instant notification of new messages using Apple Push Notification even when the App is closed or your phone is asleep.
Send HUGE messages - up to 2000 bytes per message, if you can type that much!
YAK WORKS and YAK messages are FREE....
It is that simple.
********************************************
Turn on/off in-App sound/vibration from the My Details screen on the friends tab.
Turn sound off under 'My Details' to stop Yak interrupting your iPod music.
To ensure you get notifications ensure your Notification settings are on for YAK in Settings->Notifications on your iPhone.
See www.yakapp.com for FAQ and information.
Especially read this FAQ if you're on WiFi and have problems getting push notifications, it's a simple fix to your firewall.
We love to hear suggestions and feedback, so please contact us if you wish - we don't bite!
