Finally Blackberry gradually rolls out BBM on android and i-phones

Barely a month ago when blackberry initially announced the rolling out of what many considers as Blackberry most treasured apps, BBM on android and i-phones, so many android and iphone owners were thrown into agog by such announcement, to the extent that millions of android and iphone users went ahead to download the unofficial BBM aps. 

But after the announcement by blackberry and the initial date set for the BBM to become functional on said platforms was reached, blackberry came up again stating that they were facing challenges and therefore will no longer be able to meet up on that date, and so for that reason they suspended the move and shifted it forward.

Later on, they went ahead to put up another date on an official site bbm.com created for the proper update, pertaining the BBM aps and the official date that it will finally be made functional and available for download for android and i-phone users.

Before now, if you visit bbm.com, you will see the new arrival date for BBM on other platforms clearly stated to be on 22^nd of October 2013 for the android version and this is mainly for the Samsung android only, then they went ahead to mention that in 3 days’ time being 25^th October 2013 the BBM app will be fully available for other android phones and i-phones respectively.

The good news here is that 22^nd October 2013 has come and even gone and low and behold some android users have started attesting to the fact that they have succeeded in downloading the official BBM apps to their devices and have even started using it to connect with their friends and loved ones who have since been using the BBM on their BlackBerrys.

Though some have succeeded in making use of the BBM already, while others are lamenting of their inability to make use of it yet on their android phones and tablet.

But for those lamenting, it was clearly stated that the 22^nd October date was meant for Samsung android users alone and that other android and iphone users will follow suit on 25^th and so there is no cause for alarm yet, if you are having problems installing and making use of it on other android and i-phones apart from Samsung for now.

It is also important to note here that on currently visiting bbm.com now for the BBM aps download for android and i-phones, it is now clearly stated that the BBM aps will only be made available for those running android version 4.0 and above i.e. the Ice cream sandwich (ICS), Jelly bean and the new kitkat android versions, and i-phones with iOS 6 and above, they also made it known that it will not be available for tablet users.
