BBM update brings Quick Reply for Nougat among many other new features

Following the release of its Privacy Shade App, BlackBerry has now updated its infamous BBM-BlackBerry Messenger app- with the most noticeable update being its implementation of Quick Reply feature for Nougat running devices.

BlackBerry prides itself with its closed-source, secure services and the BBM is a prime example of the same. While the inclusion of voice and video calls, stickers, small in app games, news, and vouchers isn’t exactly revolutionary, the privacy features in BBM are certainly exemplary.

The latest update, besides the quick reply feature, includes ability to reduce spam messages, updated icons for BBM’s voice and video calls, introduction of ‘Me’ and ‘Discover’ screens into the main navigation menu.
