This is probably all (bar bugs and some polishing) for Release 5.1 as we are working on a MASSIVE new feature that is going to take a few weeks to complete.
Works in any app, not just Safari. The color of the Send button shows you how you'll be sending it: pink via biteSMS and blue via Carrier. You can switch by holding down the Send button for a few seconds.
Quick Reply works in landscape too:
And, it works in the lock screen too!

On the lock screen, the pink biteSMS icon is added when a summary appears:
Quick Compose
Browsing the Internet and suddenly remember you need to send an SMS? Send one with Quick Compose without quitting the browser – press Volume Up, then tap in the middle. Easy!
For advanced users, biteSMS also supports libactivator (available from Cydia), so you can define your own hardware buttons & gestures to open Quick List.
Same as Quick Reply, works in any app, not just Safari. The color of the Send button shows you how you'll be sending it: pink via biteSMS and blue via Carrier. You can switch by holding down the Send button for a few seconds.
Quick Compose also works in landscape:

And, Quick Compose also works in the lock screen!
Quick List
Quick List is an easy way to deal with unread SMS messages. When there are unread messages, an icon appears in the status bar. Tapping the icon brings up the Quick List. Or, advanced users can set up libactivator (available from Cydia) to configure hardware buttons and/or gestures to invoke Quick List.
Works in lock screen and landscape mode too!
Delivery Reports
Only available when sending via your carrier, delivery reports show the status of a sent message: pending, received, or failed.
Note: if your mobile carrier doesn't support low-level delivery reports, like for example AT&T in the US and O2 in the UK, you can still configure the "old" method of delivery reports that uses prefixes.
Scheduled SMS
You can schedule SMS messages to be sent at a later date, either as a one-off, or repeatedly. You do that by composing an SMS normally, and then, instead of sending it, add scheduling via the menu:
For convenience, you can see all scheduled messages together in the settings, and edit them there too:
Passcode Lock
Protect your privacy from prying eyes using a dedicated SMS passcode. The passcode protects both biteSMS and the built-in Messaging application.
Coming soon: Passcode Lock in Quick Reply for even more privacy.
Contact Pics
Cool! Contact pictures!
Adding Smileys, Templates & Contacts
You can enter smileys, templates and contacts easily: just bring up the menu by double tapping/long holding in the text box, or hitting the "+" key on MMS enabled phones:
Smileys are rendered beautifully:
Also works in Quick Compose and Quick Reply:
Signatures
You can set up a signature that automatically is appended to every message:
Privacy
The privacy settings let you hide the sender identity or text of an incoming SMS, so people can't see them at a glance.
You can customise to only hide the text if you wish, or, for full privacy, hide the preview and Quick Reply window altogether!
You can configure different privacy settings for lock and unlock modes.
So, you can customize your privacy settings to do pretty much exactly what you want!
Search
Just like other built-in iPhone applications (except Messaging for some reason), biteSMS now supports searching:
The search results are narrowed down as you type, very convenient:
Then chose a search result to see the conversation, with the search result bubbles nicely highlighted for you!
Note: For iOS 4 users biteSMS uses the built-in Messaging search feature, which is slightly different from that described above.
Cancel Sending
Ever started to send a message and wished you could cancel it? Now you can in biteSMS! Simply configure a delay period of between 1 and 3 seconds, and then every time you send a message you'll have the ability to cancel it during that period.
Also works when using Quick Compose and Quick Reply.
Failed Indicator
A red exclamation mark appears on the biteSMS icon if you have any messages that have failed to send in the last week:
If you have both failed and unread messages, the icon changes to:
Accents/Diacritics
This feature converts these special characters into their closest equivalent non-special character. For example, when turned on, the special character á is replaced by regular a.
This lets you send more text without paying more! Why? Because otherwise some special characters reduce the available characters in an SMS from 160 to only 70 characters.
Character & Credit Counter
The character and credit counter makes it very clear how many credits will be used and how many characters remain for the text being entered.
Typically each SMS message (and biteSMS credit) allows you to send 160 characters, unless you type a special character, switching the character set to Unicode, in which case you'll only get 70 characters.
So let's look at how the counter works. The counter appears once you're on the second line of text:
Quick Reply and Quick Compose also have a character counter. It only kicks in when you've almost filled up a messsage:
Message Timestamp
To see the exact time a message was sent or received, simply long-hold or double tap the bubble:
Quick Forward a Message
To forward a message, just double tap/long hold on a conversation bubble to bring up the menu:
Proxy Support
A number of applications, for example TZones Proxy Hack (from Cydia), install mobile carrier specific proxy settings on your iPhone so you can surf the web, check emails, etc. These proxy settings are honored by biteSMS, so you can also send SMS texts via a proxy!
Control Auto-Correction
The built-in auto correction doesn't work very well in some languages, for example in Swiss German, but it works great in other languages. So, on the biteSMS settings page you can turn auto correction on or off for each language keyboard independently.
Here it's on for English, but off for German and Swedish.
Hide Keyboard
When typing text in an SMS message you can tap in the bubble area and the keyboard will slide away, letting you read the conversation more easily.
Save Money!
As well as all the great features above, there are some additional features to help save you money by using the biteSMS network to send messages (for example for texting to overseas).
Once you have bought credits, simply choose biteSMS as the SMS Network in the Settings page:
Also on the Settings page are options to automatically switch to and from the biteSMS network. This is convenient if you are on a plan that for example includes 100 SMS messages per month:
You can now send MMS messages via the biteSMS network. Currently just to Germany, but more countries are coming soon…
