not working, bypass doesn't work

All you need is to enter an email addy of someone who has a BB ID. Click on "I've received the email". There's no code to enter.

On next page, click on create new BB ID, and you can put a different email address.

Been using it since yesterday on my iphone 5.

Id rather use it to communicate with my android friends that whatsapp. It's very smooth and easy to use.It does have limitations though.

Remembered by old BBM account name and logged in with it. I still have like 30 friends on the berry...

It's just another platform to communicate with people. Many people don't want to text due to contract limitations and therefore opt for bbm or whataspp.

for me i was interested in the group chat feature. didn't like whatsapp and facebook although i might give FB another chance. i'll be honest tho if bbm doesn't take off amongst my close friends, i will probably uninstall.

whatsapp kinda does the same thing does it not

people in different groups, cultures, nationalities... use different programs to chat.

if one of your values in life is communicating and keeping in touch with people, you would probably use every chat program out there like I do.

north americans mostly use whatsapp

chinese mostly use wechat

taiwanese mostly use line chat

the koreans i know use kakao

etc so on so forth.


so really, the answer depends on how many friends you have, how global your friends/contacts are, and how willing you are to keep in contact with them.

same contact list is growing.

bbm is working great on my nexus4 and galaxy nexus

ShyGuy 10-22-2013 11:25 AM

Don't see the point of BBM. Such a hassle to have to share your PIN and have all your friends add you again manually. Whatsapp or other chat programs works just fine.

Alpine50 10-22-2013 11:29 AM

Let the waiting begin......just installed it this morning

No option for this yet. I'm hoping they add in the ability to change group notification settings separately from regular chat notifications as well in the next update.

I've been waiting for an email since yesterday afternoon. Anyone else have this problem?

Timewav3zer0 10-22-2013 07:21 PM

^ya i had to wait pretty much a whole day

thegentleman 10-22-2013 07:54 PM

It's fucked. I installed yesterday and earlier today I was able to get in and try to sign up for a new BBID but it wouldn't work. Pressed back and tried to get in again but now have to wait again? Wtf? I have friends who got it faster than me and they installed after me.

Gh0stRider 10-22-2013 07:57 PM

i never had to wait, signed up and it worked right away.

MR_BIGGS 10-22-2013 08:27 PM

Managed to sign in with my old BBM account on my iphone 5. Contact list is growing, friends posting PIN on facebook.
