BlackBerry today added a handful of new features to its cross-platform messaging service.
All versions of BBM (Android, BlackBerry, iOS) earn the ability to send money to BBM contacts using PayPal. This feature had been in testing on BlackBerries, but is now available to all three smartphone platforms.
All versions of the app also allow users to subscribe to the BBM Sticker Club, which BlackBerry says is a great way to build sticker collections. Android users, in particular, can re-order sticker packs and place their favorites in easy-to-reach positions.
Android users can also customize the font size within the app, and make use of pinch-to-zoom. iOS devices have been given access to the Quick Reply function (iOS 9 only); the ability to send videos as attachments; and the ability to view, like, and comment on group pictures/events.
Last, BBM now works on the Apple Watch, where it can be used to read messages as well as fire off quick replies.
BBM is free to download from the Google Play Store, BlackBerry World, and iTunes App Store.
