Want some extra security when it comes to BBM? Max Secure Software have you covered once again with Private Messages for BBM. The native BlackBerry 10 application is perfect for those of you (like me) that don't use a password on your BlackBerry. The app will prompt you to create a password once you first launch it and this will be required on each occasion that you need to access a private message. Only BBM contacts that have the app installed will be able to receive these secret messages so if you fancy joining in the gang you can do so from the link below.
The following press release is pretty self explanatory, although it's worth mentioning that the app is a free download, but that will only allow you to send 10 messages. After that you'll be prompted to purchase the full version at $2.99 or you have the option to purchase a further 10 messages for $0.99 or 50 messages for $1.99. If you're going to use the app I suggest the unlimited option is the way forward.
Does Private Messages for BBM sound your cup of tea? Sound off in the comments if you'd be so kind.
