you actually need to create the multichat by creating group in order to add pictures and vids. Then the pictures can be commented by the users sorta like facebook.
It's one of the things I don't like about bbm

bbm wont make a come back. it's just a secondary chat app.
whatsapp, wechat have it all.
bbm...
where's my auto add contacts? i have to manually add everyone? wtf.
where's my voice chat?
where's my share location?
where's my custom notifications for individuals or groups?
the only thing i like about it is, it's not attached to your number, there's an actual account.
if they fix ALL of that, then it'll be at par...
but most of all BBM is lacking user base.
looking at a global scale... whatsapp and wechat beat all other chats (line comes close especially if you're japanese or taiwanese).
this is coming from a guy that uses every chat program out there all the time.
BBM as of right now, is not convenient enough.

It's one of the things I don't like about bbm | Even in the group... I find it so inconvenient to post pictures separately from chat.. and have other people "comment/post" on it.

This among much more. BBM is superior to whatsapp in every way. Its just a matter of time before everyone migrates back. | Quote:

Everyone seems to have the same concerns, it's simply not the same as it used to be.
This is an interface designed off of Blackberry 10. The iPhone and most Android devices do not implement swipe away features and so navigating through the app is tedious.
As mentioned earlier, the features are very bare with these multi-platform versions. Many features we used to enjoy are no longer there. Group chats are awful on BBM now, at least after using WhatsApp. I do like the idea of being able to comment on photos but I don't want go into a separate window to view, post and comment on them, that's just a little more work than needed.
If I really wanted BBM to work and use it, I would rather pick up a Bold 9900 or equivalent and use the services on there. Unfortunately, it's a lose-lose situation because that Bold 9900 would be good for messaging and ONLY messaging lol.

I don't see a point in multi-person chat and a separate group chat. You can only send voice notes in multi-chat... but can't send them in a group chat? There are no custom notifications... no sharing pictures, videos, location (useful), 30 ppl limit. Meme405, how can you honestly say BBM is better than Whatsapp?
What I do like about BBM: 1 on 1 conversations
The BBM pins are separate from phone number, and there are proper read/send messages (far better than Whatsapp imo).

My store's staff are all using BBM now. I hate the Smiley button, they should swap the smiley button with the send button. Ugh.
Hopefully they bring over the new BBM/SMS popup/quickreply that is available in the Z30 and BB OS10.2

No, but in all seriousness, I see flaws in both programs. I just prefer BBM, and I think once they roll out all the other features they have planned and already implemented in the actual BB10 app, then it will really come into its own.
They did already say that ads are coming to the app, but they also mentioned that they will not be intrusive.
