Pros and cons of Jelly SMS app for iPhone and iPad

Jelly SMS app good for

Im using this app since a loooooong time with justvoip to send sms to Ukraine and its just perfect! It only lacks delivery report and "éè" support but im fine with it. Some bugs are longlasting though. In the GUI, in landscape mode you cant modify your text nor scroll up or down.
This is great app if you send international SMS. After trying many Apps I found this to be the best, unlike the other Apps I tried. I send SMS to India and they get there in instant. works great for me.
for your information i am studying at japan so i set my iphones keyboard to english and japanese keyboard. but after i upgraded my iphone to version 3.0os, i having problems with the keyboard lag and also backspace problems. i have followed the instruction regarding this problem but until now i still having the same problem. is it because i am using japanese keyboard? anyone know about that?i really need help. anyway this application is really great.
Hi, I was searching for app allowing to send SMSs worldwide from Japan through 3G and Wi-Fi networks, Japanese operators are controlled and prevent us from sending int`l SMSes ( we are allowed to receive it though). This one I found very good :) Easy to set up too. Update August 25th, 2009. In spite of many updates from company they did not fix keyboard and backspace problem yet. UPDATE September 10th, 2009 - New iPhone update 3.1 solved backspace problem :) Now JellySMS works as it supposed to, even with Japanese & other intl characters. 5 STARS !!! Update: November 6th, 2009 - Everyone should get this app if you need to send cheap SMS not only int. Found out recently, that one of Japanese operators allows intl SMS, but it cost ¥100 (US$1.1) per message!!! Now you know what to do :)
It has a wide range of Sip Providers. Practical and you can see your balance. An essential app.
Just downloaded this and even at just a small look I was impressed. Well worth it. Buy it

Some bad moments

Because of its heavy data usage, the total cost of sending SMS by this app is higher than some other alternatives. Unless any improvement is made on that issue, the current pricing is just too high! 改善の余地有り。 送信時に使用するデータ量が多い為、結果的に他の安い方法に比べて費用が高くついてしまう。 iPhoneをパケット量を抑えながら使いたい人にはお勧めしません。
Am very sorry to share this here. I bought this few weeks ago still now I cant send any SMS. I tried many carriers but its getting error always
Does not work. Waste of money i am asking for a refund it is fraud.
Waste of two dollars! Unless you want to buy SMS online from suspicious websites, dont buy this app. It does not use the SMS/Internet from your service provider. Ripoff..
Not as good a Eirtext Pro, should be easy to switch providers or been able to have more than 1 provider configure.
Pay per SMS on ur cell--why dont u directly SMS from ur cell. Complex processing. International SMS not reliable. Text have to b english only ,not accept Asian language. NOT worth ur $$!
