smartphones and enjoy a smart life and to be
able to use the phone to its maximum benefit,
and that is why we are working with BlackBerry
to preload BBM on all new TECNO smartphones.

Android customers can enjoy the rich features of
BBM that include:
· BBM Chat – Enjoy real, immediate
conversations with friends on Android,
iPhone and BlackBerry smartphones.
Not only does BBM let you know that
your message has been delivered and
read, it also shows you that your friend
is responding to the message.
· More than chat – With BBM you can
share files on your 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. BBM Groups
lets you invite up to 30 friends 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.
Executive Vice President for BBM at BlackBerry
Mr. Andrew Bocking said, “BBM continues to
grow in popularity and as the recent launch on
Android and iOS suggests, BBM is the ‘must
have’ app for active conversations. While we
continue to evolve BBM with more features and
functionality, we are excited to work with OEMs
like TECNO to preinstall BBM, giving their
smartphone customers in Africa quick and easy
access to the service right out of the box.”
