BlackBerry has been busy updating the Priv and DTEK Beta Zone OS builds and plenty of apps but they have certainly not forgotten about apps already on the Google Play Store either such as BBM. A new BBM build for Android has arrived and is now available for download. The changelog appears to be recycled from a previous build but takes a look in case you missed out on something the first time around.

  • Simplified BBM Channel profile and join UI
  • 'BBM Groups' can be accessed from the main navigation menu
  • Navigation enhancements to services in the Discovery screen and BBM in-app browser
  • Full-screen video support in BBM in-app browser
  • Phone Number sign-up feature enhancements
  • Bug fixes

I know some folks who were using an older version on Nexus devices had some issues with earlier builds and according to the forums, this appears to have corrected them. Either way, go ahead and get it downloaded and let us know if you spot any bugs not mentioned already that have been fixed.
