Not only did the BBM for iOS Beta get updated, BBM Beta for BlackBerry 10 was also updated adding more or less the same features including one addition; sharing multiple pictures in BBM Group Chats. The same applies for the BB10 update; the Vanity PIN feature will cost $1.99 on a monthly basis (recurring fees) and to remove ads will cost $0.99. These prices aren’t final and can change. Again, for those that are eligible, you will see the update on BlackBerry Beta Zone.

Changelog:

  • Vanity PINs: have a fun idea for a PIN? Looking for an easier PIN to communicate with friends? Try out this new feature and customize your own personal BBM PIN!
  • Remove Ads: hide sponsored ads and sponsored invites in BBM with this subscription.
  • Avatar Badging: Show off your special BBM status with a badge. This badge also appears on display pictures that have an active subscription.

It is noted that updating to this version of BBM will wipe chats.
