Big holes in the iPhone’s SMS/MMS functionality have been filled with two apps, SMSD and MMS. SMSD allows you to forward old SMS messages to new recipients, as well as sending new messages to multiple people. MMS, on the other hand, lets you send MMS messages (but not receive them yet) from pictures on your phone. This one’s still early beta, so be careful if you really need your phone to “not crash.” Our only hope is that these apps can be ported over to the “official” iPhone third-party SDK once that’s available next year.

This will overcome the biggest let down of this phone

Tuesday, December 30, 2008 at 4:45 PMI am very disappointed with the SMS functions of my new iPhone. I like to be able to save drafts and templates. I often need to send emails to multiple numbers and iPhone does not save a half finished message to draft. I often edit emails and forward them to others and iPhone does not allow this. I also miss prediction spelling. Apple really did not get the SMS function right at all.
