Many Black Berry users argue that the BBM is one of the man reasons why Blackberry devices are(oops.. I meant were) rocking and storming the market. Then....ENTER ANDROID.When Android first hit the market, it was expensive like crazy but now thanks to companies like Tecno, you can get low-cost android devices. When this happened, Apps like Whatsapp hit the mobile world sweeping smartphone users off their feet. Though Whatsapp has serious competition lately.....well thats for another
post. It had some serious edge over BBM like its cross-platform nature. On seeing this, in other not to run out of users(Since they've been banned in some countries), Black Berry decided to move BBM to other platforms.
Black Berry made this announcement early this year but didn't give a precise release date. Now, some psycho used this to fool lots of people. A little while back, BBM for Android ht the play store. But after download, it tells you that "BBM coming soon" or something of the sort. I remember someone asking me if I had downloaded the BBM app fpr android yet and I swiftly told him I didnt need it else I would have fallen victim of this ruse. So when you see a BBM app on the Play Store be sure to check if the developer is Black Berry and NOT RIM (the name change took place a little while ago). But in my opinion, thus guy had alterior motives: probably to get some nasty stuff into your phone and gain a back door! You can't trust these people you know. Better Safe than sorry!.
