After all the false starts and fake apps Andrew Bocking has now revealed the news that the BBM app for Android and iOS will be hitting the App Store and Google Play in the next few hours. Again it has been confirmed that it will be a free download, and he continued that the demand for the app remained high.
He stated that over one million users had found ways to side load the app on their iPhone’s, and have provided some instructions on how to download the app more smoothly. Users are advised to visit BBM.com from their handsets browser and install the app.
Once installed users will have to enter an email address to hold their spot in line, and will then receive an email alerting them once they reach the front of the line to start using the app. Users that have already signed up for news about the app will be able to start using the app immediately.
