So it seems that BBM for the iPhone and the iPad is now also available on the iTunes App Store today, just like on Google Play Store. Compatibility: Requires iOS 6.0 or later. On our 2nd day of the BlackBerry Live Conference, we sat down with several key executives to ask questions about the device, partnerships, apps and the move to expand BBM service to Android and iOS. BlackBerry believes now is the right time to expand the BBM service. They're confident that the BB 10.1 OS, the line-up of devices and the 120,000 apps in BB World is already a strong foundation that gives them a good foot-hold of their user base and hopefully expand this to Android and iOS. Is BlackBerry not concerned about no longer attracting new customers into their ecosystem now that BBM can be used on any iOS or Android device? This move is a showcase on how strong, fast and efficient the BBM service is. The BBM service will still have the best experience on a BB 10 device along with the most complete and updated features.
