It cost him, but in the end BBM for iPhone made its world appearance in the App Store. The success has been resounding, I don't know if it is a record, but if it is not, it must be very close, those responsible for the Canadian firm have announced that at this moment they have more than 10 million downloads of the "new" messaging application, yes, counting the versions of the OS and Android.
If you have downloaded it, it is very possible that you are on the waiting list to be able to activate it, a measure that they have had to impose so that the entire system does not collapse. Once your turn comes you will have to start dealing with an application that, if you have never used it, you can see something different from the ones you know.
In this post we are going to give you some clues on what you should do to start using it with ease, let's go there.
How to add a contact to BBM for iPhone
Once you have created your BlackBerryID You should start thinking about adding contacts to your list, a messaging application without contacts is a bit sad right? In the configuration process you have already had the opportunity to add contacts, if you did not or want to add some more follow these steps:
1- Open the bbm app on the iPhone.
2- In the lower right part of the screen you will see three points vertically, tap on them.
3- In the menu that appears, tap on Invite BBM
4- Now you only have to choose the way to send the invitation to your friends, there are these:
- Barcode: If you have your contact next to you, you can generate a barcode that he can scan to be your contact quickly.
- Invite by PIN: If you know the BBM PIN of the contact you want to add, you can send them a direct invitation to their mobile, a very quick way to add friends.
- Invite by Email: Your friend receives an email invitation that they must accept to add you as a contact.
- Invite by SMS: Same as Email but by text message.

Hi Diego. I have a problem with bbm notifications. I have an iPhone 5, and bbm doesn't notify me when I get a message. I already checked in the notification center, but the real problem I see is that bbm does not appear in the notification center. I don't know what it could be. Thanks in advance.
Diego, how do I get "What am I listening to" to appear in BBM Android?
I don't know, Dario, it doesn't work for me either...

Hello if you could help me. I had downloaded BBm and it stopped working. I mean, I received msg and when I opened it, they did not appear. I did the easy thing. I deleted it from my iPhone and downloaded it again. Once installed I opened my id and I stay "thinking" that is to say it tells me configuring BBm like this for 2 hours. I deleted it again and downloaded it. Does it keep doing the same to me? A solution? Or I'll just have to wait longer. From already thank you very much!!
Hello Diego, I need help to install bbm on my android table, download the application, create a user ID and then to start the session I get the device time is wrong! I don't understand what you mean, what should I do?
You can try to set the time automatically, so that the Tablet you have takes it directly, it may be that this solves your problem.

Cristina configure your bbm with your address and password from the black berry above, all your contacts will be passed to you automatically, and your contacts will have your pin modified if you need to invite them again

You are a star, I did not remember about the notifications and I was going and going to skull because the msg did not ring a bell, now a question…. I have a blackberry but I want to transfer all the bbm contacts to the iphone, I know that now the appworld account makes the respective backup for you and then restores them when you put it in another bb or in the same one, but it will also work with the iphone ? Will it restore my contacts and if so, will it automatically change the pin? I mean, when my contacts talk to me, will they go to the new pin, not the old one? thanks in advance…
greetings ! I recently installed the pin on my phone and I have the same problem as many for updating images, now my concern is to know if uninstalling it and reinstalling it could solve the problem?

Hello, I have an iPhone 5c, I downloaded BBM, all good, the only thing is that when I get a little message it doesn't make a sound, I only see it if I enter BBM.
What can be ?
Go into the settings of the notification center and make sure that you have activated the notifications with sounds in BBM. In any case, they sound very low, you will have to pay attention if you want to hear them, in addition, the app still has a lot to evolve, the notifications arrive cut off, without all the text, and it still has many bugs...
Hello, last night I downloaded the bbm on my iphone 4S with ios 7.0.3 I followed the steps they asked me to create the account and they send it to me by email but when I open the bbm I only get the bbm configuration and the little ball as an update and that's it I deleted and downloaded several times but it only comes out the same because it is...??

Go to your contact list and hold down the one you want to delete, a side menu will open, at the bottom you will see an icon in the shape of a trash can, hit it and bye-bye contact... 😉
On my ipad it keeps loading the configuration and never loads, what can I do? Thank you
Hello, I have a jailbroken iPhone 3G, I already have several versions of BBM downloaded, but I don't really want to install them via itools. It gives me an error. Is there any way to trick the device other than by using the plist version in ifile... I would really appreciate it...

Hello, is there a way to delete the list of updates from my contacts? I have accumulated status updates since I started the application and it's a very long list, but I can't find anywhere how to delete it every time I review it (as was done in the old days in BB).
Another thing, why will the application for iPhones and Androids be so different?
I don't know of any way to remove the list of updates
Hi, I'm an iPhone user, I have the 5 and the bbm application and suddenly the chats don't seem to me and I can't identify my contacts
Tremendous problem, I have installed the program and from a specific contact I cannot receive messages from his pin. It's not blocked or anything.
When a message from him arrives, it notifies me, but when I open the bbm there is nothing there.
all the messages that I send remain in D, even if my contact receives them.
any ideas????
thankssss
Hi, can you tell me how to update my status with what I'm listening to?
If you have iOS 7, it may have been updated automatically, check it by entering the App Store and clicking on the icon at the bottom right, the Updates icon, if it is not updated yet, tap on the box Update and ready
My contacts can't see my profile photo
Hi Luisa, you're not the only one, it happens to a lot of people, I imagine it's a bug in the application that they'll end up solving with an update...
Hello, because what I am listening to does not appear in the status of the pin from my iphone

Hello, when I configured it to the application, I set it to connect via Wi-Fi and now I want to set it to connect via 3G, how does it help?
Download the application and it is very good, I already have it active, but it does not have the option to edit contacts, or for now I have not been able to find it.
Pedro, to delete a contact, simply enter the contact icon, press and hold the contact you want to delete, and a trash can appears in the lower left, press it and that's it! Contact removed, hope I was able to help!
Download the application and it is very good, I already have it active, but it does not have the option to edit contacts (delete or block), or for now I have not been able to find it.
Hello Diego, I think that it is not possible to send or receive photos or videos, I have tried and I have not been able to! Is the app still not allowing you to do it?
It seems that there is a Bug with iOS 7.0.3 that does not allow you to pass them, I don't know if you are in this version... An update has already been released if so
Hi Diego !! I want you to get me out of a doubt... Regarding the Groups... I enter the Group and send a message or photo, I understand that all the contacts see it, just like if a contact writes something or uploads a photo, the others see it... .. is that so ???? Another little thing, if I want to send a message or photo to only 1 contact that is in the group without the others seeing it, how do I do it? I have to do it without entering the group??? I hope I have explained it well. Thank you!
You have explained yourself perfectly, if you send anything to a group, or all the members see it, if you want no one else to see it, you have to send it to your contact, but outside the group
Install bbm on my iPhone 5, I can't identify my contacts and I can't see the chats, how do I do it? In that case, I would appreciate it if you could help me fix this error

Can't for now Darwing
