After months of waiting and seeing some false starts BlackBerry finally released their messaging service to rival platforms that has since been downloaded by millions of users. Despite a recent update though we have found the BBM for Android app is still casing battery drain.
Like many mobile users I wanted to see what all the fuss was about the BBM app so downloaded the service to my handset. I soon set up my account and added contacts and used the app briefly but have not used it a great deal.
I have noticed though that the battery life on my Galaxy S3 that is still running Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean I hasten to add, was draining down quite quickly, and this comes after the recent update last month to the app that was supposed to address this issue.
Personally I don’t see what all the fuss is about BBM considering it’s easier for me just too quickly send a text message to someone, and I know of others you have uninstalled the service as well. My teenage daughter is a big BBM user and uses the service daily on her BlackBerry handset, but she has tried both the Android and iOS apps and really hates them.
