There are two, both from Facebook. It's available in the Messages section of Facebook app, as well as the standalone Facebook Messenger app. The standalone app uses a denser interface, and would be an improvement if you were going to use this heavily, but the section of the complete app isn't much worse.

  • I see, however both don't show who is currently online... – aneuryzm Oct 31 '11 at 19:11
  • @Patrick: They haven't always worked for me in the past, but since I updated to iOS 4 I've got reliable push notifications for messages from Messenger. The Facebook app gives me some push notifications, but I'm not sure which; it's probably based on some settings. – Jeremy Banks Oct 31 '11 at 19:16
  • Push notifications work but they ignore mine and friends online status – aneuryzm Oct 31 '11 at 19:21
  • As of iOS 6 push notifications don't work right in the Facebook app. See this question for details:apple.stackexchange.com/a/89947/27661 – alx9r Apr 27 '13 at 21:43

Also you can use IM+ it's a free app. And if you like to spending some money you can use IM+ Pro.
