    As some of you might know, whatsapp on iPhone was updated with the new IOS7 skin, lots of my iPhone friends actually like the new style and I've been noticing that they are slowly moving back to whatsapp, they aren't deleting BBM but they rarely open it.

    I used my sister's iPhone to check the new whatsapp style and I was actually impressed by how responsive it is on the iPhone compared to BBM on iPhone, I even noticed that BBM on iPhone contact updates are unreliable.

    I know it's an new app and needs time to get better but why can't they at least add landscape mode and black theme?! These two are enough to keep people on BBM until they improve it.

    Don't kill me for this post, I'm in now way trying to be negative, I'm pushing BBM like crazy to my friends, they download it for me but they don't use it which is disappointing.

    What makes me crazy is why they didn't add black theme and other customisation we had on BBOS, would make a lot of difference, at least black theme would.

    I've had really bad days when everyone was moving to androids and IPhones when they knew BBMX was coming, I actually lost friends cause of whatsapp or lets say I was talking a lot less with my friends on whatsapp.

    That is not true! Black theme is only available on BlackBerrys running 10.2

    Screenshot maybe?
