While we've yet to see BBM for Android pop up on any top lists in Google Play, its looks like it's well on the way. The Google Play store is showing BBM installs in the 1 million to 5 million range - which is pretty damn awesome. Google doesn't show the exact number of downloads so BBM could sit anywhere in that range, but it's crazy to see that it's hit over 1 million installs in under 24 hours. As of now, BBM has nearly 87k reviews and over 60k of those are 5 stars. Not too shabby.
It's also good to note that, according to our buddies at Android Central, BBM doesn't work on roughly 30 percent of existing Android devices and only runs on Android 4.x, which makes up around 69 percent of active devices.
Some pretty crazy numbers here and it looks like they aren't slowing down yet. We'll do some more recon in the next few days to see if we can pin down some more exact numbers.
