The search is still on for the de-facto winner of the all-in one IM app. imo for iPhone throws its hat in the ring with the latest update that freshens up the UI, adds location sharing and more.

It doesn't look like we will have one hands-down winner of "This is what everybody uses for IM's" anytime soon. So all the current apps in the field better make sure they stay up on the latest and greatest IM features or get left in the dust. imo has recently updated to version 3.0 that adds even more functionality to its long list of already useful features like: support for 12 different IM services, voice IM's (emulates PTT or Walkie-Talkie), and group chat. With the latest update, users can take advantage of features like an enhanced UI (with improved web content viewing), location sharing, profile management screen and multi-line input box.

Until popular proprietary IM services like iMessage or BlackBerry Messenger opens its doors to other platforms, look to apps like imo to try and bring many of your current non-voice methods of communication under one roof.

imo for iPhone is a free download from iTunes. imo is also available for Android & BlackBerry.
