Leveraging the advanced technology of iPhone OS 3.0., Bluchat allows you to connect and instant message with people in the vicinity by establishing a direct connection between devices via bluetooth. Finally, instant messaging with out boundaries.

BluChat (http://itunes.com/apps/Bluchat) offers peace of mind, allowing kids to chat without the worries of the Internet, allowing private conversations as no server is used, and allowing you to contact classmates or co-workers where internet or cellular signal is unavailable. We hope you find Bluchat to be as vital to your iPhone and iPod Touch 2G as we do.

Key features:

How Bluchat works:
When you launch Bluchat, the app immediately begins scanning the area and provides a list of discovered iPhone or iPod 2G devices also running Bluchat.

Selecting a listed name will instantly send a request to the user asking them if they would like to chat.

When the recipient accepts the invitation, both parties are instantly connected and can begin chatting.

Compatible with iPhone 3G, iPhone 3G S and iPod Touch 2nd Generation.

Great concept, too bad I never am around other people with iPhones (that I know of.)

If you're close enough to connect on bluetooth, why not just.... I dunno... talk to them?

Class, work, not sitting next to each other on a train. The list goes on and on.

Class, work...

These seem like situations you shouldn't be talking in the first place.

...not sitting next to each other on a train

That would make sense I suppose.

I'm not trying to bash this app and think it's a cool idea but I don't think it provides enough usability to charge for it. Just my opinion.

cool thanks I love the theme would be great of other Instant Messengers had this type of them...


THX for the app

I think this is a pretty cool app. Could think of some potential uses for it.

would be far more useful if the app could run in the background, otherwise, you have to have someone else with a device, have the app running, and have to be within eyesight of each other.........

limited usefulness
