BlackBerry Messenger now available on Windows Phone
BlackBerry is not doing very well selling phones, but its app BlackBerry Messenger continues to be a benchmark among messaging services, which is also now available to users of Windows Phone The mobile platform of Microsoft is the third most important, behind Android and Apple's iOS. The system is very comfortable and intuitive, with an innovative structure of living windows that are articulated on the home screen.Although the interface, handling and operation are very good, its app store is somewhat limited compared to its competitors. However, we see how the Microsoft store is filling up little by little and in this case it was the turn of BBM or BlackBerry Messenger. At the moment the application is in beta phase, which means they are still working on it, but it isfully functional and you can also download free starting today.
BBM offers a safe, fast and convenient free messaging solution. When we register, a pin associated with our account is created, that code is what we will have to share with our contacts so that they can communicate with we.The functions it offers are not very different from those we can find in applications like Whatsapp or LINEIt allows us to have chat conversations with our contacts, create group conversations and also send multimedia files among other options. Although the application is for Windows Phone, logically we can talk to any device that has BBM installed, regardless of its platform. This installment of the application has been specially designed for Windows Phone, with areas of flat colors and also the same simple font found in the system. But in addition to the design, it also acquires a function specially designed for Windows Phone With BBM we can add chats, both individual and group, to the home screen as if they were a Live Tile. In this way we can always have at hand the chats that we use most often.
The BBM service informs us of when messages have been delivered and also when they are read , a function that is also in WhatsApp but in this case is distinguished by the letters D for Delivered (delivered) and R for Read (read). It also has emoticons to illustrate the messages and as we said allows you to create chats with several interlocutors at same time and broadcast lists,a useful way to distribute the same message among our contacts without having to create a group chat with all of them.
As we said, BBM uses a numerical pin that gives us allows you to control who will contact us, without revealing phone numbers or email addresses.BlackBerry already announced to be working on second version that will come with additional functions.
