Samsung’s cross-platform messaging service, ChatON, has now gone live and is available for free on Android and Bada smartphones. First introduced at the end of August, the service is promised to come soon to the iOS and BlackBerry platforms. The service lets users share images, videos, music and locations as well as group chat.
The chat service is more like a social network and allows sharing photos that have comments, lets users comment on friend profiles and posting special messages with images, music and handwritten notes.
Using the app requires Android 2.2 or later.
