 phone such as photos and voice notes, all in an instant.
 Keep your group in the loop – Multi-person chats are a
 great way to invite contacts to chat together.

 and go a step further than multi-chat by sharing photos
 and schedules. And, with Broadcast Message, you can
 send a message out to all your BBM contacts at once.
 Post Updates and stay in the know – BBM lets you post a
 personal message, profile picture and your current status,
 and lets your contacts know instantly in Updates.
 Your unique PIN – Every BBM user has a unique PIN that
 maintains your privacy, so you don’t have to give out
 your phone number or email address to a new or casual
 contact.
 Availability: BBM will be available as a free download for
 Android smartphones running Ice Cream Sandwich and
 Jelly Bean (Android 4.x) beginning at 7AM EDT on

 schedule of 12:01 AM local time on September 22.
