Flutter brings picture messaging to iPhone 3G
If you’ve been missing the MMS feature of your previous mobile phone since you’ve shifted to the iPhone 3G, and you got frustrated when Apple forgot to include this feature in the recent 2.1 software upgrade, then you have a reason to rejoice. JuiceCaster, which is more popularly known for its mobile social networking platform, is bringing the picture messaging feature to the iPhone via its new app, called Flutter.
Basically, Flutter lets you send free, unlimited picture messages, and even geo-tagged location of the pictures, to any mobile phone in the world at no extra cost to you except for the cost of an SMS message. The SMS message will contain the link to where your picture message was stored in JuiceCaster’s site. From the JuiceCaster hosting site, your recipient can then view the picture message using their iPhones or any other mobile phones.
It’s a pretty cool feature but the only letdown is the fact that you can’t just hit the reply button if you are the recipient of a picture message since the mobile number of the SMS message containing the link is not your friend’s mobile phone number, but JuiceCaster’s. To reply, you will need to go through the same process of either sending an SMS or a picture message to your friend.
Flutter is now available for free at the iTunes Apps Store.
