BBM for Android & iPhone – it's FINALLY here!

BBM (blackberry messenger)

 Why BBM??

1. The PIN-based invitation model on BBM is something that makes it different from WhatsApp as users get an absolute authority on adding people to their BBM networks, unlike WhatsApp that lets anyone who has your phone number reach out to you.

 1. The PIN-based invitation model on BBM is something that makes it different from WhatsApp as users get an absolute authority on adding people to their BBM networks, unlike WhatsApp that lets anyone who has your phone number reach out to you. While the PIN-based invites may be considered an advantage.

 2.  Another thing that BlackBerry brags about BBM is the 'D' and 'R' indicators - where D signifies messages delivered and R says that the messages sent to a recipient have been read.
3. Today, emoji is a new language of communication. Instant messaging apps have almost dozens of emoji icons to reflect much of your moods and behavior.

4. Like WhatsApp, BBM also lets you share files with other users.

5. The PING! button on BBM reminds me of the Buzz button on Yahoo Messenger. This is one feature WhatsApp lacks.

6. Today, when most of the people own more than one device and prefer the convenience of using an app on multiple devices, BlackBerry released the BBM app in a way that confines users to use one BBM ID on one device at a time. The same issue is with WhatsApp. A WhatsApp account can only be verified with one number, on one device. Being a late participant in the race, BlackBerry could have got an edge over WhatsApp by making the BBM app work across devices. It is here, where Google Hangouts has an absolute advantage over the other two.
