IM+ All-in-One Messenger was a SHAPE Services app that combined several chat networks. The archive capture of this September 1, 2008 URL links Apple app ID 296246130. Its saved description includes features added in the evolving product, so it should not be read as a complete feature list available on the original publication date.
One contact view across separate services
The preserved text names services including AIM, MSN, Yahoo, ICQ, Jabber, Google Talk, MySpaceIM and Facebook, and also mentions Skype chat and Twitter. It describes a combined buddy list, photo sharing, voice-message links and location sharing. The practical premise was to reduce the need to switch interfaces when contacts used different networks.
The capture also discusses Apple push notifications and an IM Push mode that routed messages through email. Those are distinct mechanisms in the historical copy. They should not be collapsed into a promise that every network or delivery method still works.
A messaging client’s own interface is only part of its operation; the outside services must also accept its connections. Current network support, account compatibility and availability of this specific edition remain unverified. No sign-in or message delivery was tested. This overview documents the saved SHAPE Services edition rather than presenting its old network list as a current recommendation.
