BlackBerry launched with great success last year, the app BBM (BlackBerry Messenger) for iOS and Android systems, attracting more than 20 million users just these two platforms. However, as the company executive David Proulx, Windows Phone owners should not see the application on their phones.
Beforeavailable only to the system manufacturer, BBM is an instant messaging service that is facing competitors like WhatsApp and Viber. More than 60 million customers use the app through BlackBerry devices, and now those users can also exchange messages with friends and contacts using iOS and Android devices with PIN numbers.
However, once again the Windows Phone users must cope with the delay in the launch of an application after the saga that was until the arrival of Instagram and WhatsApp to the system. Proulx has, in a press release that the reason for not investing in a BlackBerry version of BBM for Windows Phone is purely financial and commercial.
company simply sees no reason and demand to spend time and money at the moment with the system. According to the executive, that may change if the platform will grow or if many consumers request and show interest in the application, but for now it does not.
The truth is that Windows Phone is gaining ground in recent months, and the latest releases are equipped with this system at the same level of top of the line Android smartphone platform. Does the BlackBerry can back its decision and retract with a BBM app for Microsoft’s system?
