Samsung has released their instant messaging app, ChatON for iPhone which is now available from the Apple’s app store.

From App Store:
ChatON is a Global Mobile Communication Service that enables you to have better relationships with your buddies or groups.
ChatON brings together all of these methods of communication, expression, and sharing in one place.
The all new release of ChatON for iOS brings one-on-one messaging, along with a group chat feature similar to iMessage group chat for those who like to share conversation. A broadcast feature also gifted with message drawing as well.
Along with major features, users can share all the usual media, with photos, videos and voice snippets. The user’s location, along with calender appointments and contacts can also be shared if you wish to.
Samsung’s ChatON now gone into direct compitition with other SMS replacements on the iOS platform, with Apple’s iMessage probably the big fish that will need to be cooked in order for ChatON to take off on iOS devices.
