Droid Does Trillian: Trillian for Android is coming!

Because we can’t handle any more blog comments or emails about it, we’re tipping our hand – Trillian for Android is on the way! Check out the awesome screenshots and detailed information after the jump, and be sure to tell all your friends so they stop emailing us.
Trillian on Home Screen and Login Screen
Contacts Screen and Tabbed Chat Screen
Trillian for Android will include all the fantastic features of Trillian you are familiar with, such as:
- Connect to Facebook Chat, Windows Live, Yahoo!, AIM, ICQ, Google Talk, Jabber/XMPP and MySpaceIM
- Synchronize your contacts, avatars, status, accounts and more with your Trillian-enabled desktop or mobile apps
- Get notified easily with Android notification system integration
- Contact list sorting, grouping, metacontacts support, privacy settings and various ways to organize
- Set status, avatar and display name quickly in one simple screen
- Tabbed chat windows with bubble view, photo transfer, buzz and emoticon support
- Support for Android phones as far back as version 1.6 – works with your good old T-Mobile G1 or the newest HTC Evo 4G or Motorola Droid!
- We took special care and respect to design and build the user interface to smoothly integrate with Android – this is not just a clone from the iPhone!
The first beta release is only a few weeks away. Stay tuned!

The iPhone version is stable enough for such an announcement. Congratulations!
July 8th, 2010 at 6:13 pm
WOOOOOOT!!!! Finally, I love you guys!
July 8th, 2010 at 6:17 pm
Any hope for Trillian for Linux anytime soon?
July 8th, 2010 at 6:20 pm
Finally! I was beginning to think you’d never get around to Android!

Hell has finally frozen over….THANK THE MAKERS!!!
July 8th, 2010 at 6:27 pm
Thank you so much for this
, I knew when I’ve been using Trillian since it came with a disc from a pc magazine, and I’ve been using it ever since. I’m a pro customer, and I wouldn’t mind paying for this, since I’ve been begging for a good IM application for android for awhile!
July 8th, 2010 at 6:31 pm
Hell hasn’t frozen over, and this has been in the works for quite some time. We just normally don’t announce things until they’re ready for a beta anymore. But you guys have just been so persistent, we’re announcing it early to try and at least reduce the ‘ANDROID +1′ e-mails we continually get.
July 8th, 2010 at 6:33 pm
Oh my, that’s awesome! First Trillian 5 (which is amazing by itself) and now Trillian for Android, great news! By the way and on the topic of Trillian 5, I guess contact/chat history synchronization will be supported by the Android version, when Trillian 5 gets out, right? Synchronization is an important feature for me, when working on multiple devices.
Anyway, keep up the good work and thanks for those awesome products!
July 8th, 2010 at 6:38 pm
Omg. =D
I feel like shaking someone in excitement.. lmao. I am happy you guys are working on this and I will eagerly await for more details. =)
July 8th, 2010 at 6:40 pm
Certainly exciting news. First Trillian 5 for Windows. Now Trillian for Android is closing in on a beta. And yet Trillian for the Mac is still in alpha… I guess we really are third rate customers afterall.
July 8th, 2010 at 6:40 pm
Holy crap! I’ve been waiting for this announcement since mid-2008! This is gonna be awesome. Trillian on all major OSs.
July 8th, 2010 at 6:42 pm
Maybe now everyone will shut up. (:
“New build for Windows!” “You need an Android version.”
“New release for OSX fixes lots of problems!” “Android plz.”
“Click here to download Trillian for the Blackberry!” “Needs moar Android.”
“Trillian for the iPhone is in the iTunes store now!” “Where’s Android?”
“FINE HERE’S AN ANDROID VERSION” “You need a Trillian for the Nintendo DS.”
July 8th, 2010 at 6:42 pm
Hopefully this will cut down on the forum android related flame wars as well. Almost makes me wish I had a cell phone haha.
July 8th, 2010 at 7:02 pm
Now my Evo 4G will be complete! (well, when it gets FroYo it will be)
July 8th, 2010 at 7:04 pm
fantastic. I hope the iChat like bubbles are toggle-able. Thanks team.
July 8th, 2010 at 7:13 pm
I think I just peed, pooped, and creamed my pants all at the same time. I’m really hoping all the benefits of Trillian Pro will be available on this download, I want what I paid for.
July 8th, 2010 at 7:27 pm
Great to see this coming to Android. Now that the selection of OSes is broadening, is there any hope of seeing it under Linux any time soon? I’d so love to ditch Pidgin, even if I had to re-buy Pro… hell, I might do that anyways to support you if you put out a Linux port.

July 8th, 2010 at 8:36 pm
I think it hilarious, they announce the iPhone version and everyone asks for Android and Blackberry… so they announce Blackberry and the Android requests double… Then they announce Android and presto all the Linux users start whining. Sure guys, Linux would be great some day, but don’t you think that maybe just for once they can write a blog post about a new version and everyone can refrain from the “OMG I WANT IT FOR THIS OTHER PLATFORM” posts? It is so damn annoying. Great work CS, we all secretly knew you had to have something brewing for Android.

I’m loving the UI. This is shaping up to be the first good multi-protocol IM client for Android.
My one beef is with the conversation UI. Please don’t go with the iPhone chat bubble look.
Take on the look of the Default android SMS app and Google Talk. Simple, yet elegant, and it’ll fit with other forms of communication on Android perfectly.
July 8th, 2010 at 9:45 pm

July 8th, 2010 at 9:57 pm
[...] Trillian Coming Soon to Android Instant Messaging (IM) clients are already available for Android in varying flavors, including Yahoo! Messaging, Google Talk, AndChat, and Hello AIM, among others. But so far there has been no decent IM client that handles all of these IM services in one application. And the first thing that may pop into your head when you think of an all-in-one IM client, would be Trillian. Well, today we have great news for you. Trillian is currently working on an Android app, and should have a Beta out within the next few weeks! So, I guess now we can say, "Droid Does Trillian". With the app, you will be able to connect to AIM, ICQ, IRC, Windows Live!, Facebook Chat, Yahoo!, and Jabber. You will also be able to synchronize all your contacts and accounts with your desktop-based Trillian client. Also, interestingly, Trillian for Android will take advantage of Google's updated push notification system. Check out a few screenshots below: [...]
July 8th, 2010 at 10:11 pm
One Trillian to rule them all. Great job CC! It’s good to see such a flurry of activity after how long v3 -> v4 took.
July 8th, 2010 at 10:18 pm
Hey devs, I love what you’ve done here but what I’d love even more is maybe another skin set! I know you guys, want it to integrate with Android nicely but I personally like apps to have a signature look. Maybe you do a skin that is similar to the one for Windows or the web based version.
Anyway, great stuff!

Also, instead of tabbed convos you could handle them like the Google Talk app does. Just a thought. Tabs are ugly.

July 9th, 2010 at 11:10 am
I must agree with everyone here, this is one piece of awesome news! Also to agree with some others, please don’t do the chat bubbles. I have the iPhone version and to be honest, the bubbles are HORRIBLE. I never use them on my window version, they make things so difficult to follow. I like straight up and down, name to the left and message appearing after that. I know some might like the bubbles, so giving an option to do bubbles or to do standard style chat would be the key here.
How can we sign up for beta? Is their an application we can fill out? Thanks guys, I look forward to this and finally my chat needs are SOLVED!
July 9th, 2010 at 11:19 am
Although I am happy to hear this since I own a Droid and have been using IM+
it really annoys me that there are far more Mac computers in the wild than there are Androids, or even iPads. Why can we never get a functional product on the Mac? The latest release is not even a plausible replacement for Adium, and not even within eyeshot of your awesome Windows product. One guy occasionally on the project is ridiculous.

This is some of the more important android news as far as IM power on the android.
Overall the majority of the already existing IM clients on android are full of fail (imho).
To those of you asking for skype support, or for them to remove the chat bubbles, i hope you realize that this is a first release and not the final product..(its not even in beta yet!) also we only have a small sampling of screenshots. I have full faith that CS will continue to put out a wonderful product again and again and I for one cant wait to try it out.
I anxiously await to see what the first release fully looks like and how it works on my moto droid, but a future releases as well. If anyone can do a great IM app for the android market then its CS.
I also would love to get information on how to sign up for a beta. i assume that the beta install procedure would be similar to other android apps (make sure you can install apps not from the market place and then install the apk manually etc etc etc )
(and fyi i love the bubble chat)

I think you are missing the point, I’m sorry if I was not clear. It seems your biggest development push is always Windows, because that’s where the majority of users are. And it is without a doubt, a spectacular product. Then, we have seen occasional bursts of work on Mac, followed by long lags. I admit I don’t have exact numbers, but I am certain there are far more Macs in the world than Androids, or iPads. If I’m wrong, I’m sorry. Yes, your build 107 will allow messages, but not much more. You can’t truly be equating the lack of time invested in the Mac product as even remotely as usable as Adium. And believe me, I really dislike Adium after years on Trillian for Windows. I just want a Triilian for Windows on the Mac. Thanks for your efforts and would love to see more on the Mac.
July 9th, 2010 at 4:23 pm
As an avid user of trillian, since early 2000, and now droid owner, this news comes quite literally as “Christmas In July!!” I have tried almost every IM app on the android market, and have been truly disappointed in none of them holding a candle to trillian for PC. I even remember the days of pre 3.1 contact list merging, though I would graciously accept those days again to simply use an android version of trillian with anywhere near the feature pack or even the look and feel of the Astra desktop client!!
July 9th, 2010 at 4:36 pm
@Marc, why didn’t you answer his question? He wants to know specifically what one or two or three features are the most important to you in Adium that Trillian does not provide you with yet…

July 11th, 2010 at 6:29 pm
@hinano, why would we want to use the web version on our phones instead of specific custom made apps? They all use the same backend so there is no reason for the iPhone and the Android platforms to have to be “merged”.
July 11th, 2010 at 9:08 pm
Well I’m a BlackBerry user so this really doesn’t affect me at all… But I still feel like releasing my opinion.
@People asking for webOS version: Palm was sold to HP and webOS won’t be on any new phones. There’s no point in making a Trillian for it.
@People complaining about the Mac version: I agree 100%. I’m a Mac user and I feel pretty neglected.
@People asking for Linux version: Linux isn’t a major Operating System. I wouldn’t expect anything like that when there’s a future version of Windows Trillian coming out and a Mac version that is in development.
@People asking for WinMo version: Eww. Windows Mobile of any type is gross. Zune is gross. Anything mobile that is made by Microsoft has no potential. Get a BlackBerry or iPhone.
July 12th, 2010 at 2:18 am
@David, Um.. since when is Linux not a major operating system? You do realize that OS X (another major OS) is based off the Linux/Unix kernel.. right?
I’d love to see Trillian make something at some point for Linux, theres really no point not to.
July 12th, 2010 at 2:43 am
@David – Linux isn’t a major OS? It has far more users than there are Mac users, so if anything was next, it would make most sense to be Linux before Mac. I am a Mac user as well, and yes our market share is growing, but we are still far from being anywhere near Linux users.

Despite how many people use Linux I personally don’t consider it to be major since many programs port to both Windows and Mac but avoid Linux and how Linux is just something you download and doesn’t come preinstalled on any computer (as far as I know). I can completely see the developers making a version of Trillian for Linux in the future, but as of now they have a Mac Alpha, a BlackBerry beta, an Android beta and Trillian 5 for Windows coming soon. I think they should prioritize and get some Alphas and Betas finished before they start working on a Trillian for a new Operating System.
July 12th, 2010 at 1:35 pm
YAY!!!!
July 12th, 2010 at 2:54 pm
[...] Tipp noch am Rande, der auch mich persönlich sehr interessiert: Trillian wurde für Android angekündigt. Zu Meebo ist ebenfalls ein ausführlicherer Testbericht auf Android-Hilfe.de von mir [...]
July 12th, 2010 at 5:27 pm
@David, your opinions are just going to get people pissed off at you. CS announced a version for Android, why come in here and trash what other people want to see? Windows Phone 7 will be a great release, and its not “ewww”. Please try to remain mature and insightful. Opinions are like buttholes… everyone has one and nobody cares to have anything to do with anyone else’s.
July 13th, 2010 at 12:49 am
@DiamondNRG
I don’t mean to trash, but people are being unrealistic. People have been complaining about them needing to make Trillian for Android for months. Now that it exists people are demanding more? If that gets repetitive to me, how do you think the developers feel? Also, the only thing I really trash is Windows Mobile and I’m sure most people would agree. Previous Windows Mobile phones have given everyone low expectations for Windows Phone 7 and none of the videos are close to promising. A mindless opinion is worthless, but mine is based on facts.
July 13th, 2010 at 5:44 am
@David,
Most of those who demanded/requested Trillian for Android are NOT the ones requesting Trillian for Linux/Windows Mobile/Etc. You cannot just clump them all together!
July 13th, 2010 at 12:16 pm
@Steven
I am not clumping them together, I’m saying that CS released the most requested thing on the forum and people still found more to complain about.
July 13th, 2010 at 12:43 pm
Wow, I love you, Trillian Team! Trillian will rock Meebo and eBuddy any day!

@DiamondNRG
Don’t get me wrong, I’m beyond well aware the hardware isn’t out…then again I may or may not be one of the people receiving a dev/test device. Wink wink, know what i mean say no more?
I know Cerulean wouldn’t put effort towards an OS whose hardware/marketshare hasn’t even been seen yet. But I’m just an eager supporter of Cerulean and Microsoft to simply WANT the product to exist. I’m beyond satisfied with what CS has done in terms of a product and merely hoping that I will eventually see such an app. Until such a day occurs, I’ll eagerly be pushing this product on clients and purchasing upgrades.
July 14th, 2010 at 2:41 am
When will we be able to sign up for the beta? I am so in an so psyched!!!!!
July 15th, 2010 at 2:54 pm

Thank you so much! Finally!
July 16th, 2010 at 4:45 pm
Awesome! I saw this on Yahoo news as well, and came over here looking for details.
Given the choices in IM right now, on Android, Trillian will be a most welcome addition.
July 17th, 2010 at 12:38 am
Will the Andriod version work on the Verizon Imagio or will it get it’s own version?
July 17th, 2010 at 3:05 pm
Anthony, the Verizon Imagio runs Windows Mobile 6.5 not Android. It’s like trying to run Apple only programs on Windows..it won’t work!
July 17th, 2010 at 8:55 pm
heyy the trillian for blackberry via Tcp dont login at astra.. chek the server plz
July 18th, 2010 at 11:51 am
DROID!!!
Yay! That sums up what I have to say.
Actually quite excited by the prospect, have been waiting for a clever and dedicated developer to bring a proper IM client to Android for some time, can’t wait to get this on my Hero, eBuddy until then…

Count me in for testing with the Droid Eris
July 19th, 2010 at 8:25 am
Please, please, please put me on the beta list! This looks incredible! I can’t wait!
July 19th, 2010 at 10:07 am
Wow thats great news, its about time android got a decent IM client, Ive not really been happy with any one of ones on the marketplace at the moment.
I know you guys will do a great job
July 19th, 2010 at 11:06 am
Thank the maker! At long last my desire will be filled!
July 19th, 2010 at 12:22 pm
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I know I will love this app and very excited about ditching Palringo. BTW, I’d also pay extra to get the IRC chat on this too. But totally get that this would probably need to be an add on sometime later feature. Just want you to know since you already have the most user friendly IRC client out there for Windows. If we don’t let you know what we want and will pay for, you guys just have to shoot in the dark and hope for the best.
July 19th, 2010 at 3:41 pm
Is it possible to add russian language support to Trillian? If I like your program, I’ll buy it then.
July 20th, 2010 at 11:47 pm
I am so excited to read this. I cannot wait for this release. Goodbye Nimbuzz and eBuddy. I am certainly going to be paying for this app if that’s necessary.
Uhh… now to look up my Astra username…
July 21st, 2010 at 6:38 am
What about Symbion? there are many users who use Nokia E series. Please think about us also.
July 21st, 2010 at 7:46 am
I wish the iphone version had a similar theme, please make light and dark themes available to both platform.
July 22nd, 2010 at 10:42 am
So almost 3 weeks after the announcement and nothing…
I remember when I first got my Droid and wanted to run Trillian but was told by Cerulean Studios they’d not be supporting the Android OS. Do I wish I would have kept that email. would be awesome to post it up in here…
guys it should have been out a year ago…WTF
July 22nd, 2010 at 12:53 pm
@michael, CS never said they were not going to support android. They just were not going to say IF they were going to.
July 22nd, 2010 at 3:06 pm
AAHHHH….it needs to be out already…I’m so excited!
July 23rd, 2010 at 2:05 am
Great news, I cant wait until we can test the beta release
Good work. Team
July 23rd, 2010 at 2:11 pm
I have been waiting forever to get Trillian on my Behold 2. I’ll totally beta test this without question!
July 23rd, 2010 at 5:32 pm
Can’t wait can’t wait can’t wait can’t wait can’t wait
Why don’t you guys at Cerulean have people working on this around the clock? No one should be paid or fed until this app goes public!! We want it.. we NEEED it!
All the other Android IM clients are so very lacking, and most have stopped connecting to facebook chat over the past couple weeks. In another week they may be fixed but if you release early you could sweep the entire android IM client market!! (And I’d get to use it sooner heheh)
July 23rd, 2010 at 8:27 pm
I am very anxious for the release of Trillian for my droid phone. Hope it comes out very soon. I am hoping it will be announced in the corner of my computer screen upon load up, as I’ll be first in line to grab this app. I already use the Pro version since it’s my favorite chat client.
July 24th, 2010 at 10:01 pm
I can’t wait, started using Trillian .74 back in the day, last about two months before I went to Pro and haven’t found anything anywhere as good. How can one become a beta tester??? PLEASE….
July 25th, 2010 at 7:15 am
I really can not believe Trillian developers haven’t already had this out for Android.
Talk about being behind the curve! Get with the program guys.
Already a large amount of other IM clients available & you don’t even have a Alpha or Beta release!
Trillian once was my favorite IM client but,you are so far behind anyone else I’d be embarrassed if I where you.
GET WITH IT!
July 25th, 2010 at 1:19 pm
And what about Trillian for Symbian (S60 v5)?

July 25th, 2010 at 5:22 pm
So… any idea for a specific date of release? I’m getting a bit antsy. Nimbuzz kind of sucks imo, and eBuddy isn’t any better. Not to be a nusance but it would be awesome to get it soon! Thanks guys! Please hurry up with it!
July 25th, 2010 at 7:51 pm
They don’t give out release dates ahead of time…
July 26th, 2010 at 2:18 pm
Lets hope its released soon, apart from the Official Yahoo client every IM client for Android is down right horrible and a total UI disaster,
Nimbuzz and Ebuddy are down right horrible, im glad Cerulean Studios are bringing Trillian to Android, atleast they will be one great client out there for MSN Messenger on Android.
July 26th, 2010 at 2:41 pm
This is awesome!
July 27th, 2010 at 10:03 pm
I have 2 small humble requests. !!!!These are two things i would pay to see in Trillian for android.!!!!
SIP account support. and Bluetooth headset support via said SIP account and/or voice chat medium.
July 28th, 2010 at 11:31 am
Any friggen day now. You work on blackberry beta before android? Get your priorities straight. We need a better IM client, other phones don’t.
July 28th, 2010 at 3:12 pm
to nick:
dont piss ‘em off, they may take longer, in spite. i cant wait tho whenevr you all do push it out even if it is beta.
July 28th, 2010 at 8:00 pm
Hey, if ANYONE knows how we can sign up as beta tester, let me know please, or heck I would even test the alpha version if it’s availible……..
July 29th, 2010 at 1:33 am
Finally! This is the best news in months.. Especially wirking on G1. I’d love to be tester.
July 29th, 2010 at 5:46 am
I can’t wait! I want to stay online all the time on my android phone. I want an actually good IM client for my mobile!
July 29th, 2010 at 4:19 pm
And what about Trillian for Symbian (S60 v5)?
July 29th, 2010 at 4:37 pm
That app will be great! Thank you guys for bringing Trillian to Android! Finally.
July 29th, 2010 at 9:38 pm
This is just some cruel joke. There is no app for the android, they never even intend to make one.
July 29th, 2010 at 11:30 pm
Where is the Droid app? Any comments from CS would be greatly appreciated.
July 30th, 2010 at 6:20 am
@Izzy, you are completely wrong. The dev’s have even been online with the Android app recently.
July 30th, 2010 at 1:32 pm
@Mark, it’s still in alpha development, so there’s no way it’ll be in the marketplace for anyone just yet.
@Izzy, same thing to you. It’s being made, so it’ll be out when they finish it.
@Nick, their priorities are what they make of it. Just because YOU have different ones, doesn’t mean that THEY can’t work on their own list in their own time. Right now, they’re shuffling four new clients (Mac, Blackberry, Android, and Trillian 5), as well as working on updates for the previous two main revisions of Trillian (Trillian 3.x and Trillian Astra). They are busy people, and the fact that they even MADE Trillian in the first place is a great thing. They’ll do what they want, WHEN they want, HOW they want, because it’s THEIR PRODUCT.
July 30th, 2010 at 1:33 pm
And now, since I totally forgot my own comments on this, I’m quite hyped. I’m supposed to be getting a new Sony X10 in the near future, so this’ll be a great thing to have on there. Hell, I’ll even buy the thing, because I like CS products that much (I own Astra pro, iPod Touch and will own 5 pro already).
July 30th, 2010 at 8:11 pm
They shouldn’t have set a date then. Regardless.
July 31st, 2010 at 10:10 am
Rock on you complete my Android.
August 1st, 2010 at 10:52 am
Got 2.2 for my HTC Desire today. Now I only have to wait for this app to get released and I’ll be a very happy man.

August 2nd, 2010 at 12:46 am
The sooner the better!
August 2nd, 2010 at 10:49 am
If your not going to release it on time at least let us know what’s up.
August 2nd, 2010 at 4:23 pm
@Nick, they didn’t set a date, they simply said “a few weeks.” From google’s define site:
a few(a): more than one but indefinitely small in number
“Small” is of course reletive… But as far as weeks go, I would say 10 would no longer be a “Small” number, but by comparison to 1 million, even that would be fairly insignificant.
My point is that they have not broken any promises yet. And even by my first suggestion, they still have 6 weeks to go before *I* get upset.
That being said, CS: Keep up the good work! I can’t wait to see this app!
August 3rd, 2010 at 2:31 am
The design looks wack. At least if you comapre it with eBuddy. Is there any chance of proper redesign of what is supposed to be the final version?
August 3rd, 2010 at 5:18 am
I bought it for iphone now im using the galaxy s can iget the abdroid version cheaper? ? i bought pc version allsow
August 3rd, 2010 at 7:47 am
ok, that does it. Trillian for Android _and_ a special offer on the Pro version. I’m sold
August 3rd, 2010 at 4:16 pm
A =1, coupe =2, few =3.
August 3rd, 2010 at 4:59 pm
@Nick why are you getting so upset about this. A ‘few’ is not a definable number, just small in number whereas your quite right about ‘A’ and ‘Couple’.
August 4th, 2010 at 12:19 pm
I have been with Trillian since the beginning and love my droid….so what a great combination……can’t wait!!!
August 4th, 2010 at 10:22 pm
I’m upset because ebuddy sucks and all the rest suck and trillian sucks very little.
August 5th, 2010 at 5:01 am
superb for android
also wish to have video chat option but anyway in the future maybe.
August 5th, 2010 at 2:40 pm
Okay so it has been a month sense you announced Trillian for Droid…Any idea when you will have an open Beta and how someone like me can sign up for it?
August 5th, 2010 at 4:47 pm
I can’t believe it’s taken CS so long to put this out for Android.
Truly disappointing & quite sure when it’s released that will be followed by more disappointments.
August 5th, 2010 at 6:45 pm
Are you away CS, that android is up 886% in the stock market and sells and activates 200 thousand devices a DAY, and us now much bigger then iPhone, and blackberry? So wtf gives?
August 5th, 2010 at 8:24 pm
I just got myself a Droid X, first smartphone I’ve owned. I totally thought it would already have Trillian. I’m bummed its not an application yet. Just another vote hoping that it will be out soon so I can get it.
August 6th, 2010 at 4:58 am
I’m still ansious for that beta, the first app i searched for qhen got my anddr was trillian, now i can’t wait more, usig that f..k..ng ebudy i anoying me at all
, count on me for a beta tester
August 6th, 2010 at 7:54 am
Hi, Nimbuzz has a new version 2.0 that seems quite nice also. But I think this will be a killer when it gets out (when?)!

August 6th, 2010 at 9:27 am
I keep checking the android market every day to see if trillian is listed… sadly still not yet
August 6th, 2010 at 10:28 am
Does a few short weeks mean indefinite?
August 6th, 2010 at 7:22 pm
Forget it CS, everyone try the new nimbuzz it has better features. I’m deleting trillian off all my computers because of this lie.
August 9th, 2010 at 1:37 am
forget it..this is just a joke…..
August 9th, 2010 at 10:18 am
Any word on a (semi-) firm release date? I think we’re all chomping at the bit, here.
Thanks!
August 9th, 2010 at 3:40 pm
So, where is the application? This was posted beginning of July and it’s now about middle of August and still not available. what’s up?
August 9th, 2010 at 6:17 pm
Hey everyone – we’re still hard at work on the Droid version. Our first priority was getting Trillian 5 to beta which we’ve now done, so our next goal will be the release of a beta version of Trillian for Android. We are also dealing with the month of August and employee vacations but rest assured that progress is being made!
August 9th, 2010 at 9:38 pm
But no ideas on a release date, how cruel is that.
August 10th, 2010 at 9:54 am
Nick, I thought you were leaving. Go away and uninstall Trillian and load up your inferior product.
Or – shut up, wait till they release the end-all mobile IM product in their time, and get over your childishness.
August 10th, 2010 at 4:34 pm
Count me in on the beta. I’ve a Samsung Captivate all rooted and ready to side-load anything you need tested. Bring it!
August 10th, 2010 at 9:37 pm
When is this supposed to be coming EXACTLY? i’m about sick of waiting for it..and of course no one can give a clear cut answer

I also waiting for the history synchronization support and i hope you guys will implement in near future a full custom emoticons support for the MSN plugin.

August 12th, 2010 at 1:29 am
Any idea on whether or not Trillian for Android will also support IRC? Or will I still need a separate app for that?
August 14th, 2010 at 12:35 pm
It’s funny how people complain after a few weeks, thinking back on how long Astra took
I’m as hyped as everyone else, but seriously: Be a little more patient, we’ll get it eventually and it’ll be awesome.
Oh and everyone: Just ignore Nick, don’t feed the troll.
August 15th, 2010 at 7:33 am

Are we there yet? Week 6 (since the July 8th posting ………) eagerly waiting for the BETA launch
August 15th, 2010 at 6:45 pm
Your mother was a troll. Bitch… Trillian is starting to get out done already by other apps in the market.
August 17th, 2010 at 5:43 pm
+1 Android user here (Samsung Vibrant), and a Trillian Pro purchaser.
Trillian for Android is one of the must-have apps for the Android Market. To have the Trilly experience on my phone, if it’s anywhere as fluid as on the desktop, will make on-the-go communications much easier.
Can’t wait – as others have said. Keep up the good work, and hope to see a beta out soon.
August 18th, 2010 at 10:38 am
Woooo! I can’t wait either this would make my Droid top notch! any android phone would be top notch with this! Hope progress is going well!

Woot! I have a Google Nexus One. I will gladly beta test for the android release
August 18th, 2010 at 1:58 pm
Woot! Very excited!!! Trillian is the best multi-IM client for Windows based desktops, and now I’ll be able to use the same app and synchronize my contacts with my Droid. Props go to Cerulean Studios for their efforts to meet the needs of all their diverse customer base!!!
August 18th, 2010 at 3:46 pm
Whoa… Wait a sec… At the bottom of the announcement about Trillian 5 they said “News about Trillian for Android coming next…” Where is that news?
I’m not trying to troll, and I do understand the necessity to work out bugs in the early releases… But Trillian for Android will have bugs to squash too… The sooner we get all the clients out, the sooner we can get the session and history syncing running… That’s what I want to see, and what will get me to blow my dollars on these updates. Keep up the good work, and I hope to see this out soon!
August 19th, 2010 at 1:09 am
Really looking forward to this, I have been using Trillian PRO for quite a while now and haven’t been disappointed. Hopefully the android app will do the same! Just make sure you keep the data transfer in check!
August 19th, 2010 at 11:22 am
While you guys are making the trillian for android (which will be awesome) why don’t you port it on over to linux too?
