Although BlackBerry has been falling behind in recent years, its ever-so-popular BlackBerry Messenger is still used worldwide. Back in June, BlackBerry added a redesigned interface to BBM, along with new emoticons/stickers, and an easier way to add contacts by email.
BBM has been updated today to version 2.3.0.12, as if it couldn't get any longer than that, adding bug fixes, performance improvements, and now the ability to add contacts by PIN, email, SMS, and barcode.
The new update also allows for folks to search for users through BBM. Among the new features, BBM fanatics can review and accept invites from other users as well.
BBM 2.3.0.12 changelog:
- Add new contacts to BBM by PIN, email, SMS, and barcode
- Review and accept invites from other BBM users
- Find friends using BBM
- Invite address book contacts to download BBM
- Display your barcode and scan barcodes all in one screen
