BBM and BBM Video
You can use BlackBerry Messenger to chat and
share voice notes, pictures, videos, and other files
with friends who have a BlackBerry smartphone.
With BBM, you can enjoy chatting in real-time
with your friends and knowing when someone
has read your message. The BBM Groups feature
lets you share pictures, lists, appointments, and
more with a group of family members, friends, or
co-workers.
• From the home screen, tap to open BBM.
You can start a BBM Video chat from any BBM
chat or from the Phone or Contacts app on your
smartphone. If you try to start a BBM Video chat
from the Phone or Contacts app with someone
who isn’t a BBM contact, you will be asked to
add the person to BBM before you start your
BBM Video chat.
