BBM for Android hits 100 mn downloads since launch

Blackberry has announced that its BBM (Blackberry Messenger) for Android has hit 100 million downloads in the Google Play store since it was launched a year and a half ago, in 2013.

According to the Verge, the company also said that the BBM stickers have been sent more than a billion times by users.

Blackberry claimed that these numbers show the 'tremendous momentum' behind the instant messaging service at the moment.

The number of active BBM users, however, is not the same as the messaging service's download numbers.
