About instant messaging apps
You can download instant messaging apps for your BlackBerry smartphone from the BlackBerry World storefront
(previously known as BlackBerry App World). By default, your smartphone comes with BlackBerry Messenger. You can use
BBM to chat with people who have a BlackBerry smartphone by sending and receiving messages and files. You can also
change your status and display picture. With the BBM Groups feature of BBM, you can share pictures, lists, appointments,
and more.
You must have a wireless service data plan to use these apps. Depending on your wireless service provider or organization,
some apps or features might not be supported.
