We are glad to mention to you that our iPhone app for sending MMS is now available in the Apple App Store. So far it only works in Sweden and more specifically it works for users with a Telia SIM card.Our ambition is to make this service available in more countries and for more operators as quickly as possible. We also want to implement the functionality of receiving MMS in iPhone + some other cool features into the app.
Supporting more operators + more countries
In order to support more operators we are willing to strike deals with operators and quickly launch the MMS for iPhone app. If you know some operators who needs this service or you are working for an operator yourself please contact us (sales AT mobispine.com) and we will help you out.
Support for incoming MMS in iPhones
To receive MMS in the iPhone seamlessly we need the mobile operator to do some configuration on their side and it would also make lots of sense to use the Apple notification API when released. Before that API comes we can always notify the users with SMS to start with.
I know our techies work right now on fixing some bugs/issues that have been reported by kind early adopters. Here are the bugs/issues we have noticed so far:
- Some users reckoned that multiple MMS were delivered to a user when sending one MMS. This bug IS FIXED NOW as I write this blog post. Thx @marko_salonen
- Only one receiver for the MMS can be selected, not multiple.
- Sometimes when EDGE connection is used, an error message is displayed and the MMS is not sent.
- (Workaround - hit Send again)
- One user reported some problems registering the app up-front but it worked for him second time.
- Sometimes when sending MMS, the toolbar flickers (cosmetical bug)
Thx a lot for this initial feedback! We just want to let you know that we are onto it and we will fix the above bugs straight away. Any other feedback is well appreciated (both positive and negative feedback of course)
Thx!

Great overview; great response Marko.
ould you please add this app to the US iTunes store aswell. Alot of Swedish people are using the US iTunes store for different reasons.
Please make this happen!
...And I do have telia as provider.
Is it impossible to use this app with Telenor?
It's better to wait for iPhone 3.0 as it's possible it'll be included and FREE.
There's only one reason why they'd release it now; the fear of iPhone 3.0.
Tråkigt nog så funkar den inte speciellt bra. 1) Vill man lägga till en bild man tar med kameran direkt så läggs den inte till 2) Har man redan skrivit text innan man lägger till en bild så försvinner texten. 3) Finns ingen inkorg eller ukorg.
4) Ibland så lägger sig bilden på textfältet så man ser inte det man skrivit.
Thx all for great feedback! We work currenty hard with additional improvements & bug fixings. Some answers below to your questions:
- It works currently only with Telia SIM cards
- We will try to make this available for other operators asap
- We do not what happens with future versions of iPhone. Always lots of specualtions.
- We will fix the bug that text gets lost if user firs write text and then use the camera.
- We will make it more clear for people when message is sent or not.
More feedback please!
- It works currently only with Telia SIM cards
how about Telia SIM Cards in Denmark,
are they supported???
Kan ni inte göra det möjligt att välja att sätta svarsadressen till mail? Detta går att göra i Telias programvara för mms i datorn.
I IphoneOS 3.0 beta 2 fungerar MMS alldeles utmärkt att både skicka och ta emot. Direkt från Apples standardappliaktion.
