Hi Everyone!
We’ve been updating our J2ME versions to improve your Palringo service yet again. We’ve increased performance in many areas and fixed the bugs you helped us to find – keeping you connected and making Palringo more stable than ever before.
To enhance your experience, we’ve also improved the reliability of Palringo’s connection to Facebook. Finally, Palringo is now available in 25 languages:
Simplified Chinese, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Malay, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Portuguese-Brazil, Slovak, Spanish, Spanish-Latin America, Swedish, Thai, Turkish, Russian, Vietnamese.
Happy Chatting!
The Palringo Team.
Hi Guys!
We hope you’re all enjoying version 2.5 for iPhone! We’ve been busy making additions and adjustments to make Palringo even better to use.
Message Screen
*The messages screen has been completely re-designed to make it faster, more stable and even more customisable than ever before.
*Palringo Premium users now have exclusive access to the three brand new themes which we’ve added.
Image Viewer
* The brand new image viewer now lets you look over a whole gallery of group or private chat images, as well as allowing you to flick between images in a slide show!
Group Search
*In response to popular demand, we have added Group search to the latest versions. This means it’s now easier than ever to meet new friends and become part of the countless groups on Palringo.
Privacy Control
Palringo now comes with an in-client privacy system – allowing you to block those people you just don’t feel like talking to!
It’s easy to enable (Or disable if you are the forgiving type!) but private messages sent by a blocked contact won’t be sent to you at all.
Emoticons
Since the recent updates of Palringo, it seems there has been much confusion surrounding the use of emoticons. The next release of Palringo due before Christmas will add a much improved emoticon pane, until then all the emoticons can still be used by typing in their text version- ‘:)’ will show a smiley face, ‘;)’ shows a wink… etc.
Have fun using!!
The Palringo Team.

Using Palringo when on holidays abroad instead of making expensive roaming calls could save you a fortune this summer. Although some mobile operators are reducing and even getting rid of their roaming charges (only in Europe if you read the small print) Palringo offers major savings in destinations worldwide. Because we use your mobile’s data connection to send and receive messages the cost of a message corresponds directly to the length of the message. That means a lot of talking, texting or picture messages for as little as fractions of a penny.
Just 1MB of data with Palringo can let you send and receive the equivalent of 4,500 SMS messages, up to 15 minutes of voice messages, and about 32 picture messages using a typical cameraphone.
With groups you can update everyone at the same time, and for the same cost. So if you want to tell 3 of your friends all about your holiday you can send just one voice message, or one photo message. No need to pay for 3 phone calls or 3 MMS messages, simply create a Palringo group and start saving.
But how much could you save? Imagine you’re in Turkey for one week, you make one five minute call home per day, receive one five minute inbound call, five texts in and five texts out. That’s not excessive usage, but with certain operators on pay as you go it could cost more than £92. On Palringo you could do this with the same mobile network operator for just £14. Plus as Palringo is free we won’t charge you a penny, the only charges you need to pay are to your mobile operator.
Making savings on your mobile when abroad may not sound very glamorous, but it all adds up. And perhaps with the savings you make you can afford another holiday even sooner. Make the most of your summer with Palringo.
We’re delighted and honoured to let you know that Palringo has been nominated for not one but two Europas. The Europas are the technology innovation awards for European tech companies, run by TechCrunch.
It’s great to be nominated but we need your help to win. The Europas are voted for by TechCrunch readers, just like you, so please help us to win by voting for Palringo in the best mobile start-up and best mobile application category.
Thanks for supporting us. Please spread the word to your friends and fellow Palringo users and help us win.
