Sad that it's come to this...

Though that mxit wasn't the best chatting app around it was the first application that I used to chat. I will miss it and all the features it provided. I actually created skins for myself using my pc at one stage. We even played moon base. That was an epic game. However it did have draw backs and I supposed due to the lack of users it's has decreased in popularity. It could have been improved in iPhone like online status and skin customization. Not logging out when you multitask e.t.c. But alas all good things must come to an end. We had a good run Mxit Team. All the best to the Mxit Team and thanks for your effort and time.

AVFoundation
The AV Foundation framework provides an Objective-C interface for managing and playing audio-visual media in iOS and OS X applications.
Core Data
Use Core Data to save your application’s permanent data for offline use, to cache temporary data, and to add undo functionality to your app on a single device. Through Core Data’s Data Model editor, you define your data’s types and relationships, and generate respective class definitions. Core Data can then manage object instances at runtime to provide the following features.
Core Location Framework
The Core Location framework lets you determine the current location or heading associated with a device. The framework uses the available hardware to determine the user’s position and heading. You use the classes and protocols in this framework to configure and schedule the delivery of location and heading events. You can also use it to define geographic regions and monitor when the user crosses the boundaries of those regions. In iOS, you can also define a region around a Bluetooth beacon.
MessageUI
The Message UI framework provides specialized view controllers for presenting standard composition interfaces for email and SMS (Short Messaging Service) text messages. Use these interfaces to add message delivery capabilities without requiring the user to leave your app.
