biteSMS gets updated [jailbreak]
biteSMS has just been updated to version 5.2 which includes integration with TextFreek, a service that provides free SMS messaging between iOS, Android, and Blackberry users. This update to biteSMS also includes iOS 4.3 compatibility. The update also includes a few new features such as remembering contact settings for the bite network and carrier network. Jailbreakers should still keep in mind that even though iOS 4.3 compatibility has been added, there's still no easy untethered iOS 4.3 jailbreak solution available yet. Click through for a full list of changes.
- TextFreek integration (text for FREE!!!) - See biteSMS, Settings, TextFreek.
- iOS 4.3 compatibility.
- New feature for the default send method to be 'Remember per Contact'. Especially useful when you’d like to switch to using the biteSMS network for specific friends (say international or not included in your carriers unlimited plan).
- Added ringtone support for iOS 4.2.1 such that biteSMS now interacts correctly with the new iOS per contact ringtone feature.
- For biteSMS Ringtones (packaged or in directory structure) the volume is now reduced by 50% if headphones are plugged-in.
- With privacy set, the [Open] and [Call] buttons should display as active / inactive as expected.
- Fixed up bug when composing a new scheduled message it did not always show the scheduled clock icon.

Love this app ! SMS the way it's meant to be
Now if they would just add swipe so my friend will get off my a** that she doesn't have it.
My friend switched from iPhone to Android and hardcore misses biteSMS. She's currently using ChompSMS and tried Handcent, but nothing compares...
Seeing a oddity with hidden contacts where "Open" is always a live button. It will open the biteSMS App then it crashes bringing me back to the springboard. No 'security' issues but still not how it was in 5.1
Great update. I use the privacy settings, so anything fixed with that is a welcome addition.
Best jailbreak app out there. That being said this update doesn't interest me as it already fulfils all my needs
It is one of the reason I JB.
biteSMS is like a taste of Heaven!
They should make a legal app for iphone users.
I've always wanted to try bitesms... but I primarily use textfree and it doesn't support textfree yet sooo kind of pointless for me right now.
Is this actually a free texting app?
