Nope. Either way, not interested in another messaging app service.
All my friends will not leave WhatsApp, and the people I talk to on BBM went back to using whatsapp. lol.
It's SMS and WhatsApp, and a little bit of WeChat.

BBM is a lot slower than Whatsapp in terms of loading messages. It doesn't let you send media or files to groups (at least in the iOS version).

However it has been great for groups I feel. You don't have to expose your phone number to everyone in your group, all they can see is your pin, and if you don't want people to add you just click ignore.

I still use it for groups, but when it comes to one on one, I stick to whatsapp.

No voice notes (actually really useful), No location sending..

Group chats delete messages after awhile(or not being active), stupid when you need to check back and refer to something.

I felt that if anything, BBM groups are the worst part about the application. Having to go to the main screen then clicking on the group and then clicking on the photos to add or comment on them is really annoying.

Not to mention, the keyboard takes up half the screen so when you have groups with 10 ppl + you usually have to catch up with messages, you only get to see 2-3 messages at a time on the screen.

Can't send voice notes is huge and locations are fun.

What I really do like is the option of "lists" and "events".

For example, back in my whatsapp group we needed to organize an event, and it involved a list of who's going and who has paid (and how much), who's bringing what item, etc what we are missing. If we had the option of lists similar to bbm, it would have made our lives a lot easier.

I'm using it against my will. I prefer whatsapp. It is growing on me, but I find it too slow on my phone. Sharing links on group chats doesn't seem to be an option for me, and I keep on getting notifications from messages I've already viewed..over..and over again.

Double tap to get the pic full screen and then pinch to zoom. Well that's how it works on z10 anyways.
