This feels like a minor oversight, but now the app is out of beta and it remains a puzzling omission.
#Dual bbm for android update
The BBM app's tile will show you if there are any unread messages, but if you're waiting for an update to a particular conversation, you'll just have to duck into the app and check. Instead, it doesn't even offer an unread notification count. A snippet of the latest message in a conversation - akin to a snippet on your email's live tile, for example - would've been awesome, much like the BBM widget on Android. It's a neat concept, but the ensuing Live Tile is little more than a shortcut to the conversation. Windows Phone BBM users get the ability to pin individual conversations directly to the Start screen, for speedy access. Performance is solid too it chugs along amicably on the Nokia Lumia 925 I've been using it on, and while the beta version could be a little sluggish at times, things have cleared up rather nicely with this first version. Either way it's a very simple process: once you've created your PIN, you can send conversation invites to friends in your address book (inviting them to create BlackBerry IDs), or input their PIN if you know it. You'll trade that PIN number with anyone you'd like to chat with, as it's ostensibly more secure than sharing sensitive information like a phone and email address.
