First of all let me introduce myself. My name is Amir and I head the product team at JuiceCaster - a mobile social networking service you can find on AT&T, T-Mobile, Alltell, US Cellular, Nokia NSeries, Blackberry, and soon dozens of other places I can't talk about yet.
One day, taking a break from building the JuiceCaster app for the iPhone, we were sitting around lamenting the lack of MMS (picture messaging) on the iPhone - as do many people on the interweb: "Why has Apple omitted MMS from the iPhone?" Inevitably, as these conversations go in any technology start-up, the obvious answer was, "Who knows, but let's build it." And thus, Flutter was born. Here's the official blurb:
Picture messaging takes flight for the first time on the iPhone!
Send unlimited picture messages and geo-tagged location to any mobile phone in the world. Now, you have the convenience of sending multi-media messages (MMS) to virtually any mobile phone number in your iPhone contact book.
When creating a picture or simple text message using Flutter, you have the option to attach your location. Flutter automatically adds a link to your message so friends can instantly view your location on Google Maps!
Send to one or multiple recipients at a time. Messages are sent over Wi-Fi or a data connection. Your messages are private and contact info is not stored. Start fluttering!
As I type, we're putting up the web landing page for the app. In my next post, I'll link to a short features page and a FAQ so you can find out more.
In the meantime, you can get Flutter - for free - from the App Store, right here!
