I sent her another one about an hour after that. No D immediately but got the D later (maybe 5 mins). I asked her what she was doing. She confirmed she didn't open the app but was on the phone.
IPhone 5S user: she rarely use BBM.
I sent her a BBM, she opened, got a D.
Told her not to touch her BBM, sent her again a BBM half an hour later, no D.
Another half an hour later, I sent another message, no D.
Conclusion, the idea that iOS prioritise certain apps and shuts down some base on habits sound plausible. Also, seems like iOS will prioritise the core apps (phone) and once they are not use anymore, they might reallocate the memory to an app such as BBM. Kind of a smart multitasking. But too smart is like not smart since now, certain apps such as BBM has unpredictable behaviours.
