Countless other messaging services have since proliferated both the Android and iOS ecosystems, and while the novelty of having the once-exclusive BBM service on your phone should be attractive to some, many might not bother to switch from the comfort of Viber, WhatsApp or LINE.

Will you use BBM when it comes to Android and iOS? Let us know in the comments!
