GroupMe on iPad
People have many complaints about iMessage, Apple's built-in text-messaging service for iPhones, iPads, and Macs.

There's a great solution, and it's from Microsoft, of all companies: GroupMe.

GroupMe's app, which Microsoft picked up when it acquired Skype last year, lets you exchange messages with several people at once.

And it just got a beautiful redesign that brings it to the iPad.

With GroupMe 4.0, chats are now in the forefront, photos are bigger, and it's much easier to switch between conversations. 

What's also cool is that you can easily share your location or where you're planning on going using the new map feature. 

And unlike iMessage, GroupMe works on iPhone, Android, and Windows Phone—as well as via a slick Web app or any phone which does regular text messages. So besides looking good, it's a much better option if you don't run with an Apple-only clique.

GroupMe 4.0 for iPads and iPhones is available as a free download.

Check out images below:
