10+ Million Downloads of BBM on Android & iPhone Devices

Blackberry Messenger (BBM), the flagship chat app on Blackberry, is now available for download for Android and iPhone users. This, weeks after a botched release in September, saw over 10 million downloads in 24 hours, recording one of the best single days for a mobile app. BBM can now be downloaded via Apple App Store and Google Play.

“This has been an incredible launch for BBM across Android and iPhone devices. The mobile messaging market is full of opportunity for BBM. We intend to be the leading private social network for everyone who needs the immediate communication and collaboration of instant messaging combined with the privacy, control and reliability delivered through BBM,” said Andrew Bocking, Executive Vice President, BBM at BlackBerry.
According to Blackberry, “BBM also quickly rose through the rankings on the App Store to be the number one free app in more than 75 countries in the first 24 hours, including the US, Canada, the UK, Indonesia and most of the Middle East. User ratings in both the App Store and Google Play are overwhelmingly positive, earning BBM 60,000 five-star reviews on Google Play from about 87,000 reviews.”
Users will get a unique PIN, and have access to voice calls, video, and more.
