Hi iPhone & iPod Touch users,
Drum roll, please! Just for you: a big new update of eBuddy for your iPhone & iPod Touch, available in the App Store now! 
We hope you’ll enjoy all of the improvements:
- - Faster & secure login: Logging in is now a lot faster - depending on the quality of your connection, of course! We’ve also improved security.
- -Push notifications up to 1 hour: You can choose to stay logged in and receive push notifications for incoming message up to 1 full hour!
- - Saved chats and messages: Your chats stay open until you close them, including all your messages. Never lose any conversations!
- - Clickable links in chats: When someone sends you a link, just tap on it to go directly to that link without exiting eBuddy.
- - MySpace IM added: You can now chat with your MySpace buddies as well. Just add MySpace to your chat account and you’re good to go.
- - Start a group chat: Invite multiple buddies to have a group chat with you directly from the chat screen.
- - Clickable pictures sent by other eBuddy users: You can now view pictures sent to you by fellow eBuddy users directly in your chat.
- - Many other improvements and bug fixes.
We‘ve also been listening closely to all your feedback, so don’t worry: a new update is coming soon, which we think will more than live up to your expectations! Here’s one hint: eBuddy will “go wide” 
.
And for those of you who don’t have our iPhone app yet, eBuddy is available now as a free download in the iTunes App Store.
Happy Messaging!
Ivar
This version has as many bugs as the previous!
@fevre53 Could you send an e-mail to feedback_iphone@ebuddy.com with your bug reports, so we can take a look at it? Thanks!
Ivar, is there someone I can contact to have my issue fixed? When I am logged off, it still says I am online and “On www.ebuddy.com” as my status. this has been going on for almost 2 weeks.
@Steve If this is on your iPhone/iPod Touch it’s expected: you can choose (from Settings) to stay online for up to 1 hour and receive push notifications. If you have an issue with any of the other apps, please send an e-mail to feedback_iphone@ebuddy.com and we will look into it. Thanks.
Hi Ivar,
When I click on my Display picture in the ebuddy for iphone, I get this empty box with my nickname etc beside it, but the box (my display i guess) is not clickable….
Can I change my Display with this new Update or not?

@Anna You cannot set your display picture with eBuddy for the iPhone/iPod Touch yet. But keep your eye on the App Store, we’ll have some news for you very soon
…
1 question (could not find the answer anywhere):
How can I use a gif when I want to change my pic in E-Buddy ?!
Tnx in advance and keep up the good work !!
@Ferenc You can log in on our Web Messenger at http://ww.ebuddy.com and change your display picture there…
Ivar, this is not for the iphone. It’s using the web-client. It stays online forever, not just for 1 hour.

Am on an iPod touch (1st gen) and I don’t know why it’d crash every time I start it up. It wasn’t like this before I updated. It happened after I updated - ebuddy for iPhone just wouldn’t start up. Is this a bug?
*I had sorting on ‘By Name’ previously.
It’s great but I’m not able to chage the display !!! I dont wanna a display of the ebbudy logo!!! i wanna my picture!!! why ?
And when i change the display at the ebuddy web … the ebuddy logo still appears on when i connect from my iphone
if only ebuddy could improve the GUI on iPhone, it would be great, the look is sooo old with the grey background, it makes my iPhone 3Gs looks old but i really like this apps, i’ve to do with it, but i hope they will change the look of ebuddy on IPHONE soon, and plz, am waiting fot it to be “wider”.
Thxxx, John…

wow! thats good to hear. thanks for the info.
Any plans to release a windows mobile version? It’d be nice not to have to go through Java to access your software. Or at the least, make one thats compatible with 480×800 screens on WinMo.
For those experiencing a crash on launch, try what I did. Seems to fix the issue.
Delete the app. Reinstall. And do NOT check Login Automatically under your EBuddy login. You can leave the other accounts, such as MSN to login automatically.
So far I’ve had no more crash on launch.
The only minor thing is that you need to press the login button when you launch. Otherwise it works perfectly!
And just in case someone is wondering, or my post is somehow confusing, disabling the Login Automatically under the Ebuddy login doesn’t make you log out when you close the app.
So you still appear as online to your friends.
And you’ll still have Push Notifications for your specified amount of time.
It just means that the program won’t automatically reconnect to the server on relaunch, provided you’ve already logged in in the first place, of course.
So you’ll still receive push notifications, and when you open the app and login again, you’ll get all your message as normal.

hello good work
Cannot change the nick. Each time eBuddy loads, it copies the nick from one of the im accs. Which one? God knows! Depends on which im acc finishes loading last? Total trash. Why can’t eBuddy main seperate nicks for separate IMs like Digsby does?
Hi,
can the ebuddy group the msg together if it’s at same time? And i feel that the time displayed and nick name are taking up a lot of spaces. Hope there are some improvement soon.
And I love the interface eBuddy for android, it’s much more nicer than eBuddy for iPhone.
Thanks.
ebuddy is great…
