BlackBerry Messaging, or BBM, is a messaging platform that provides collaboration tools like BBM Groups, BBM and BBM Voice Channels and competes with services like WhatsApp, which Facebook bought last week by 19 billion dollars.

BBM will be available as a download in the Windows Phone gratuiro Store from half of this year, while the BBM for Nokia X will be available on Nokia Store Nokia X when the platform is launched, said in a statement on BlackBerry Monday.

BBM service was a pioneer of mobile messaging, but its user base could not keep pace with WhatsApp and other upstarts, in part because the BlackBerry refused to open the service to users on other platforms.

BBM is still popular, even though the popularity of BlackBerry devices has fallen. Late last year, the company’s Waterloo, Ontario, finally opened the messaging platform for users of iPhone and Android, and the number of active users of the service has grown to more than 80 million.
