vivacious vivi:

For me, it goes more than that. Its having any random fellow who had your phone number in the past just come out of the blue to say "Hi baby"!!! angry I mean wth! I got something like that from a Carpenter I used years ago in my old rented apartment?! undecided

And what is with all those Useless and Incomprehensible Emoticons!!!! The Cow, Pig, Sheep, baby, lft foot, gas, Meat, Dog, Duck, firetruck, fried eggs......................WTH!!!! angry angry angry angry
I can agree with you with the whole random fellows having your number and shii....but DON'T hate on those Emotions.... they are in fact actually awesome.... did you know you can actually have an entire conversation with someone without actually typing a single letter on your keyboard.... you can have a full conversation with those Emotions.... how many IM apps can boast of that....?? in my opinion only the concept of privacy that BBM has the edge...of which if some random person messages you on whatsapp, there's always the block option to end it all...so it's only a matter of using it....

and why do u post a grinning emoticon at d end of ur posts
Re: BBM vs Whatsapp: Which Is Better? by unmask: 6:09pm On Oct 23, 2013
whatsapp is still the deal......and the use of phone numbers is just brilliant.....as for security its over flogged.....most use it to send insecure data anyway.....and the best is it's simplicity......

My mom could use it and she isn't techy

bbm has its advantage which is majorly the security

but for now I would trade security for intimacy, speed and simplicity.....

So it remains whatsapp for me

The Metro has reported that a Whatsapp user noticed a friend being active on the instant messaging client two years after his death. This would be enough to shock and confuse anyone! The reason this occurred is that the mobile number had been reassigned to a new user and therefore the poor chap that had passed away was not in fact able to Whatsapp from heaven, but instead it was a new random person with the same phone number.

I'm surprised nobody mentioned the "send location" features in whatsapp. With whatsapp, a girl can can send u her location tru GPS, so that u won't bother asking for her street name or address. BBm doesn't have such feature.. Team whatsapp

Y u dey compare goat 2 cow?
Anybody we say whatsapp beta pas BBM.....I say die well wit ya Nokia
Person 4 front page say if u buy new BBM,ur pin go change n u go lose contact (I knw no who tel am say dem dey buy BBM)
Well if u change bb,ur pin no go change,as long as u get ur email n pasword for app world,(if d fone na new 1,if u wan open BBM,e go direct u 2 app world so 2 log in ur detail,den u go retain ur frnds back,dem no go knw say u change pin self,but na d new pin u go still dey use) but if no b new bb,try format am so u 2 login ur detail 2 retrieve ur contact!
Makin new frnds is far beta dan makin old frnds....,pins dey every where,but numbas no dey everywhere!

No try compare dis tins again, compare 2go 2 whatsapp,thou I find 2go more interesting

Nonso23: Tell airtel to stabilize their network and mtn to bring back bis on android then i will download BBM, use it and afterwards, give my verdict. I am not going to use bbm on an unstable or a ripoff network . I need a steady, reliable and cost-efficient data plan first!
Till then; Whatsapp is better! grin

From all the post so far, Whatsapp seem to have better features and can be found on so many mobile platforms. BBM on the other hand is more secure because of the PIN concept. Trying to be objective here, as applications, Whatsapp is still ahead off BBM. (From the posts so far, we await more)
