I can actualy count the number of times i changed my profile picture on whatsapp... its pointless...cos no one will notice u did...same with status updates...but on bbm,everything do on ur profile gets notified in the recent updates of ur contact list...atimes,u dont wanna chat...but keep yourself busy with what ur contact peeps are up ta... Whatsapp is quite a heavy app to use...not even as fast as bbm...no urgency like the "PING" feature on bbm...bbm is lighter...with a friendlier user interface...it's got class...With privacy and security. Both apps could come in handy though...especially when one would like to chat with peeps who arent on bbm, mostly the java,symbian or windows phones users...but c'mon, u cant deny the fact that bbm gives chatting a nice,safe and convenient feel...with class.. 4 Likes |

You've got valid points, but the bolded is not true. Whatsapp is lighter and faster. Even under a slow network condition, Whatsapp will still send and receive msgs. BBM will only send and receive when the network is fast enough. BBM doesn't even open sometimes unless network is good. More annoying, BBM doesn't deliver all messages you send under slow network. So in case of urgency, I give it to Whatsapp. 2 Likes |

virtuoso01: at times i wonder if you folks ever use these things you talk about at all. whatsapp has a block button. a report button. you are required to add the person if you dont already have the number. if you truly dont know the person then?...... if indeed a stranger has your number, the person could simply call you, sms you etc. its not a whatsapp problem. in my years of using BBM, i know it suffers exactly the same issue, pin or not. How many times have you asked someone "where did you get my pin"? ask girls if they don't do this ever so often. i know how many times i stole girls pins from other folks bbm u also have to accept invites etc on BBM, often times you also wont know who the person is, esp if the display name and DP are not regular so? in practical terms there is little difference.` u also conveniently forget a lot of the "features" on BBM are intrusive. just yesterday i was teasing a friend who was watching porn on her BB. i knew because the video app kept updating status on the BBM app and i saw a video name that was clearly porn as far as im concerned, the only selling point for BBM remains D and R. in a few weeks when the BBM euphoria goes down, we will revisit this issue of which is better again 1 Like |

4llerbuntu:exactly, u killed it. bb users over hype bbm. it had 10million download cos * everyone wanted to feel the over hyped bbm. still disappointed @ the trash called bbm on Android. *it is a free application. That's basically d reason I didn't think twice before downloading. *most peeps are addicted to social networks. I ain't Saying whatsapp is better Or bbm is better. I just don't see reasons Why someone would say whatsapp is not secured. If bbm is that secured, Why do ladies keep asking u How u got there pin. stop over hyping bbm jare. 2 Likes |

ollyndjeda: I think the pin and the phone are kinda fixed. So if u change ur phone and download d app u'll b given a new pin. Bbm has an edge over the other im's. Its updates-that shows other people what you just wrote as your status or when you change ur dp. And also the pin ish that gives you a sense of control over who is your contact. And also always being online-when u use a bb you are always connected to the internet and sending a message to someone, u are sure the persn is gonna get the msg immediately and reply asap. Unlike whatsapp and the likes. You receive message instantly on whatsapp my friend, faster than BB, na only if the receiver's fone is turned off or no MB or no credit, you can chat for minutes with less than 1naira deducted from your fone. Monthly, your whtsapp expenses fit no reach 50-100naira, unlike BBM. BB messenger network sef malfunction often, na whtsapp dey bail me, thats d fact! Are you a learner? Infact, u r a learner, ur post tell me say na only BB messenger u don use before for life. Go upgrade! |

You nailed it..Can't see why people would compare whatsapp to bbm, for me whatsapp is so dry and unfriendly. BBM rocks, you can share files,music,videos,voice notes as many as you can, its just that bbm has to increase the duration of active voice note messages and also increase the size of MB data you can share with your contacts...You can check in somewhere on facebook and also share it as your bbm status at the same time. I prefer to share my pin to someone I just met than releasing my number, because once I get pissed with you, its just to delete your ass and add you to my ignore list and that's it. But whatsapp is so annoying that you can still get calls from the person, so its even a waste of time to delete or block someone from your whatsapp list..I have both apps but I wake up to look at my bbm first before even remembering I have whatsapp on my phone. Most of my whatsapp contacts are now seriously downloading bbm and we now talk on bbm instead of whatsapp so people should accept the fact that bbm rocks and keep your fingers crossed for their updates which I know would come with so many features..BBM Fan 1 Like |

4llerbuntu: Sure some people steal ladies pin from other people's mobile, but its so easy to delete and ignore that person if you don't want the person on your list, he can keep adding you after you have successfully deleted him but you will never get a request from him because he has been transfered to your ignore list. You can only see what one is watching or listening to, only if the box is checked for people to know and see what am listening else its not possible if the box is unchecked. And whatsapp doesn't show location map and Timezone because some people lie alot with that but on bbm you can never lie and say you are in Canada,dubai,UK etc whereas you are behind iya basira buka in your village... 1 Like |

I wish there should be a way of personalising the BB pin so that the whole stuff about BBM will be more unique than ever. None the less, professional advice is highly needed. For the initiator, please press on to have a good head way on this matter. |

Re: BBM On Android And Iphone: My Questions by coolest01(m): 2:55pm On Oct 29, 2013 |
Letting your contacts on bbm know what music ure listening to or what video ure watching on your phone is a feature that can be turned on or off in your bbm profile/settings....i dont see how that's a disadvantage And as for the saying that "bbm only works with strong network",i dont quite agree with that. Saying bbm only opens when there is network is what only android or iphones are facing...not blackberry phone users. For crying out loud,bbm on android and ios Is yet to receive its first major upgrade...Unlike the bbm on bb fones,which has received close to 15 upgrades... |

[quote author=virtuoso01]With the current euphoria about BBM on Android and Iphone. New users are now in ecstasy and enjoying BBM Live on their devices. I am also one of them but despite this euphoria a lot of questions have been bugging my mind and I think it is important that I ask them because I dont have answers to them: (1). I hope that I can keep my BB Pin even if I change my Android phone. This was one of the reasons why I did not have a BB phone because you have to get a new Pin anytime you get a new phone which is like changing your home or office address every six months. I feel your BB Pin should be part of your identity just like your phone numbers and your name. (2). Now that Android phones and Iphones officially have a kind of Blackberry feature in them I think it is also wise that our Nigerian network providers should also make internet plans on these devices very affordable and pocket friendly. Just like the Blackberry plans. Or what do you think? (3). What is the future of other mobile IM services like WhatsApp, WeChat, Viber etc. Especially WhatsApp?. Something tells me that if WhatsApp does not step up its game soon, they could well have an exodus on their hands. These are my questions for now. Feel free to enlighten me and you may also ask your own questions.[/quote Has Android considered user's back up? I mean something in form BB Desktop manager. Cus users wil need to back up their contacts t be fully safe. |
Re: BBM On Android And Iphone: My Questions by fistonati(m): 10:06pm On Oct 29, 2013 |
Backing up of file's and other stuffs must be considered, as in Nokia PC Suit, Itunes and Blackberry Desktop Manager to propel adequate back-up of BBM contacts. |
