GOGII just announced the launch of textPlus on the Android Market. The texting application was previously available only on the Apple App Store.

The textPlus app brings sponsor-supported free and unlimited messaging to Android users and allows them to have instant group “conversations” in text with friends on most U.S. carriers.

textPlus allows both old-style texting (one-to-one conversations) and what GOGII refers to as "next-generation" texting which include a richer, more engaging experience through instant group conversations. The "reply-all" feature, similar to email, turns texting essentially into a chat room.

“We’ve already seen overwhelming consumer response to the textPlus app in the Apple App Store thanks to the millions of consumers who’ve embraced our game-changing features - from casual texters to the staggering number of consumers who text as their primary mode of communication,” said Scott Lahman, CEO and co-founder of GOGII.

“We’re pleased to make textPlus available to Android users, and offer even more text-happy mobile consumers this tricked-out, next generation texting service.”
