A new Xbox Live iPhone app is now available on the Apple Store that allows you to manage your Live account in just about every way you would possibly want to on the go -- from accepting friend requests to seeing which friends are online and sending them messages.

Called 360 Live, the app currently costs $1.99, but as Joystiq noted, that price may soon be reduced to free. Microsoft decreed back in August of 2008 that any Xbox Live-related app must be released free of charge, so it's likely the price for this app will be dropped once Microsoft has its say.

In the meanwhile, the app's main features -- as described on its website -- follow below.

* Sign in securely using your Xbox Live credentials. 360 Live automatically retrieves your friends.
* Complete Gamertags management. Add, remove, accept or reject pending requests.
* An organized Friends List. Grouped by status (Online, Offline, etc.)
* Gamer Profile and details including gamerscore, bio, location, country, gamercard, avatar, etc.
* Check your friends' complete games history.
* Compare locked and unlocked achievements per game and gamertag.
* Send and receive messages. You can even send messages to multiple recipients!
* Gamercard coverflow style carousel on landscape mode!

EDITORS NOTE: This app is not created by Microsoft so use proper precaution before entering your personal information in a third-party application.

dont mean to sound stupid but is this app only to be released on for the iphone if it is thats a bit shit for ppl without an iphone

Make sure you read it all next time

Xbox Live iPhone App

wow thats canny good that

Its an advertising scam they wont to make you think that it will only work on iPhone but what thy dont say is that it wont work on iPods

Unless of course i didnt read that part

it's a scam they're charging you to check their servers for online status, after all it's not like you're playing online.

Did you not read the part where it says an old Microsoft policy may mean the app will become FREE OF CHARGE once Microsoft has its say?
Take it you didn't.

IMO, it's about time someone made this. It got kind of annoying signing into xbox.com on my itouch to check shit like that. This should make it easier
