This advances are the direct influence in the ways of the economy. I found this that help to undes¡rstand this topic and the consequences in the 2014 year look www.laagencia2014.com
Loved the free version so I purchased and installed the Pro version this morning.
I have trouble connecting to AIM, and when I do manage to do so and send a message, the recipient receives a whole bunch of HTML formatting tags along with it.
Thoughts?

You promised it would be ad free… I bought it and now when I’m logged in, it says “on ebuddy for iphone & ipod touch www.ebuddy.com/iphone” etc.. The only reason I bought it was so it would be ad free..
Since it’s false marketing, I’d like my money back..
kind regards,
Moris. [mor1s@hotmail.com]
I agree with @Moris the “on ebuddy for iphone. . . ” message is an ad. It needs to go on the Pro version
I bought the pro version for my iPhone today. Soon thereafter I got a spam IM on my MSN chat account but haven’t found a way to block that person or to reject the chat invitation. Any help?
why dont you add skype in your list?
Awesome app!!! however, i did notice in the “my info” screen of the app there are bugs. My display picture, message, and name setting would reset every time i close the app.
We need a way to block messages from unknown contacts. Bought the Pro version yesterday and already received nearly a dozen spam messages from different users for the same website…
how about eBuddy for Samsung Corby Touchscreen S3650…
I agree with @morrys , this suck, Pro Version is not ads free. I don’t recommend to buy this… please give me my money back.
Who do all apps are free initially then after awhile + popular, need to pay for extra mini features? The same goes with Palringo and IM+ too. Geez… Off I go with deleting eBuddy now… And installing Fring and others
And can’t you just use a short ad? Like “on eBuddy” rather than “on ebuddy for iphone & ipod touch www.ebuddy.com/iphone“
Agreed, you need to get rid of the eBuddy line in the personal message.
It shouldn’t be there in the pro version.
Also you need to fix this bug that doesn’t remember your name, personal message and display picture.
eBuddy Pro for iPod Touch and iPhone released…
eBuddy is one of the best and most popular social networking and IM (Instant Messaging) client for mobile phones. This client also gives it’s users a web-interface like desktop. Now, they’ve just announced the Pro version of eBuddy.
eBuddy Pro is th…
I agree with everyone above, there should be NO ads on the pro version. If this app was cheaper, i could have lived with it but at this price, I feel like I’ve been tricked. Give me my money back or remove the ad.
So on the free version you can’t upload display pictures?
i bought it before 2-3 days and i did’t like
1. “on ebbudy for iphone” should be removed
2. i’m receiving spam messages
3. my friends are receiving spam messages from me about ebbudy
4. in the contact list it should show the pics of my friends
I bought it 1week ago, and agreed with what the guys said, ‘on ebbudy for iphone’ should be removed.
btw, where can I find chat history, i saw the description saying there is chat history in it.
You guys blew it with the ebuddy pro idea. $5.99AUD is a rip off for simply removing ads. Think of customers not your back pocket please ebuddy. And to think you can’t even bother putting a simple LANDSCAPE KEYBOARD in for crying out loud. Landscape kEyboArd must be the simplest part of making an app. Ebuddy = FAIL.
@Chris. Ebuddy will do nothing about this as they care little about their customers. All they want is money from as little effort as possible. And this marketing strategy fails. Don’t get your hopes up either. Not even a landscape keyboard. Thanks for nothing Esh*tty. I mean. Ebuddy.
My friend got it few days before and agreed wiwth what the guys said on ebbudy for iphone should be removed.<
ebuddy is one fo the best and social network and instant messages client for mobile phones. I brought a pro version for my iphone today.
i bought it before 2-3 days and i did’t like
1. “on ebbudy for iphone” should be removed
2. i’m receiving spam messages
I agree with everyone above, there should be NO ads on the pro version. If this app was cheaper, i could have lived with it but at this price, I feel like I’ve been tricked. Give me my money back or remove the ad.
EBUDDY PRO SUCKS. Who would want to pay $5.99 for false advertising. “no ads”, yet in your personal message it shows “on ebuddy for iphone & ipod touch”.
The price is extremely expensive. I actually feel sorry for the people who WASTED their money on this.
Do not support this CRAP.
I’m glad that I didn’t pay a cent for this crap. Jailbreaking ftw. I will actually buy apps that are worth it, but cmon, $5 for *less* ads? Please, sounds a little greedy to me. I’m never supporting greedybuddy. They can go shove their ads up their ass.
when are u guys going to fix the crashing bug on start-up?!?!
@Richard… Never. They don’t care about users. They keep charging ridiculous rates for the FREE app and label it as ebuddy ‘pro’.
hello i a fun of eBuddy.Thank you for your service!!!
I just want to ask i have the latest version on my iphone but next to my name i had this ! xxxxx!
What is this?
The new Landscape feature is a nice touch, although the blue suggested text bubbles are appearing under the text instead of above it and the keyboard is obscuring them. This is a real problem.
Also, the time it takes to flip from normal to landscape on older iPhones makes having the landscape feature a pain. Whenever I pull the phone out of my pocket it seems to be in the wrong orientation. If I try and change the phone because I’m in a hurry and don’t want to wait for the phone to change to how I’m holding it then I’m always a second behind as it flips just as I turn the phone and is still wrong.
Or if I just wait it is a bother because it seems to take so long to change to how I want it.
There should be an option to DISABLE the landscape keyboard for those of us who wish not to have it at those times.
This app does not support facebook chat on iPod touch
@ All the morons who dont know…
you can change your display message from “on ebuddy for iphone & ipod touch” to something else in the opitons menu
Hey, I’m reading some of the responses on this page and wow, a lot of negative feedback.
Sorry to have to add a couple more, though this application is pretty great! [:
I have a couple of problems with it though which I’m hoping you will be fixed.
1. Everytime I sign back in, my Display name would always reset. It’s very annoying, especially when you’re signing in on multiple accounts and people on your MSN list can see all of your other email addresses when the name resets.
2. Second problem I have with this application is the blocked contacts. In settings, there’s the option to hide your blocked contacts. Even though I set that option to “no” (show blocked contacts), they still go hidden anyway.
Those two are my main issues with the application, but there is another issue I have with this application.
3. When I send offline messages to my contacts, everytime I re-open the application, the chat window will open again, displaying all of the offline messages I sent even though I’ve closed the chat/conversation window.
I pray that these problems will be fixed soon, and all of the other problems which have been notified on this page.
Thank you for reading,
Dalena.
I’m with Dalena. My display name always gets reseted to back to “Jojo” instead of “J o J o”. Changed it numerous times to “J o J o” but upon exiting and restarting eBuddy, my display name reverted to “Jojo”.
Also, the “on eBuddy for iPhone and iPod Touch” message is way too long for comfort. Please consider changing to shorter “on eBuddy” message as it’s more prefessional looking (not desperately looking for free publicity).
Also, please give us an option to disable auto-landscape. It’s very annoying to have the screen rotating all the time due to slight moment (e.g. lying on the bed).
Thanks for listening.
Okay, I have this annoying issue, which begins to drive me crazy by the way.
It seems that I’m always online for my contacts, even if I shut off the iPhone application, even if I delete my gtalk account from ebuddy, even if… Well, the fact is : they see me online all the time, I can’t change it, I can’t have a status message on my gtalk account…
So, PLEASE, delete my account, PLEASE, and that remains me : why can’t we delete our account ?
I cannot seem to delete buddies on the pro version. Why is this? They are buddies on gtalk
I felt there will be some problem in this skit. So i didn’t pay any money for this. I really feel sorry for the people, who all are paid money for this skit. I feel all the problems will be fixed soon, and all of the other problem will be fixed on the other page. Thank you for sharing this information with us and i hope the problem will clear soon. Thank you for reading my opinion.
How do I change the name that appears when I sign in ? I’ve even tried making two eBuddy IDs and it’s always the same name when I sign in on MSN even if I didn’t enter the name in any field when creating my second eBuddy ID.
Guys, . i couldn not log off my gtalk accounts, whats the problem ? please fixxxxxx it soon.
hi ..
my gtalk acc is always online even thought i log out from ebuddy on my iphone and i even deleted gtalk acc from ebuddy list.. But I still hve this issue..
when are you going to add skype?
I am unable to log out from gmail too, even when i have deleted the app from the iphone. Please get this fixed. This is really hampering a lot of stuff… PLease fix
This problem that you all are having, is consistent with what i’m dealing with as well. The app was deleted from my phone since I no longer needed it, however, my gtalk status is always saying, “on e-buddy for iphone and ipod touch”
it looks as if i’m always signed on which i want fixed as well.
seems like a problem across the board.
Total agree with you all complaining about this app. It has been a total waste of money, and has a major issue with the Gtalk status message being left to the “on eBuddy for iPhone & iPod Touch” while always leaving you Online.
Please share you experience here so that Google may be alerted to this issue as I’m sure it violates their terms and agreements with using their servers http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/chat/thread?tid=39308a0abe4bf6eb&hl=en
Ebuddy, please fix this issue!
Hi Friend,
It funny why anyone will buy the “Pro” version when the free version has this capability to ALWAYS keep you online even if you try to logoff with any means.
Please read the responses from blog entry of 27 Oct 2009, almost half the users already have this PRO facility, so please save your efforts.
Hi Guys!!
I found out the solution to the ebuddy not signin out issue on gtalk.
All u need to do is go and change your google account password. I will take some time(approx an hr or 2) and then u`ll logout of your gtalk account from ebuddy.
Bharat,
Sorry friend, that solution doesn’t work. I changed the password, deleted the gtalk login details from ebuddy nothing worked.
Now I have to keep logging into ebuddy, to fetch my offline messages, since I am online those message do not land in my mailbox anymore.
The only thing remains is to delete my gmail ID, which is impossible for me.
I just hope ebuddy programmers are listening to this.
very good
how do i make a acount
definitely the best IM client for iPhone, with blistering fast connectivity and ease of use. also, did I mention that it isn’t as expensive to other? I’d really recommend ebuddy pro.
I wish I could have that! It looks awesome!
to bad I can not enter the application that locks in the language and not progressing as besides charge??? not according it’s free?
what If u have the old version of the iPod touch and it doesn”t have any apps how can u download the ebuddy pro??????
This is a great solution for online conferencing. I hope ebuddy gets better and better.
“on eBuddy for iPhone & iPod ” status message is so annoying I’m giving up on this app.
Very cool, Really you have done a nice work.
Both my Ebuddy and Ebuddy Pro apps aren’t letting me login. It says I’m not within range of Wi-Fi or 3G networks, but I am, because my Safari and other internet-requiring apps work fine.
The Ebuddy Pro was not loading or accepting my counts and passwords in my iPod. I need to unistalled to fixed and now I need to pay again??? I´m disagree. Please fix this.
