Blackberry messenger gets Timed Messages and Message Retraction across platform.

10:42 pm By

Blackberry’s Messenger app has received an update today, which brings with it two new features – TIMED MESSAGES AND MESSAGE RETRACTION.


Timed messages allows you to set how long contacts have access to messages and pictures shared in a chat before it disappears from the screen. When that expires, the message you sent will disappear from the BBM chat. With Message Retraction, you can retract a message to remove it from your BBM chat.

Other new additions include HD picture transfer – making it easier to get a high quality version of pictures and a quicker sticker picker –making it even quicker to add stickers to chats. Also, the ability for you to discover what music your contacts are listening to in BBM Feeds has been added

You do need to remember, however, that people can still capture screen shots of what you send them before you retract anything (or before a Timed Message expires). They can also make copies of messages, which naturally won’t disappear once you use the Retraction feature. Interestingly, Timed Messages and Message Retraction will only be offered for free and without restrictions for three months. After that, they will become part of a paid “broader bundle of features” that will require a subscription.

This updated version of BBM is already available for download from the various ( Android, Blackberry and IOS) platforms market.
