If I’m right about the mistakes they made, then they are also wasting a lot of the users battery.
Maybe you could reach out to BBL and offer some insight? Kind of like a bug bounty program where you might get a small reward? I do more of BI/ERP data reporting where I've seen the results (err disaster) from poor report/SPROC designs where the developer did not understand how the data and/or hardware functions.
Nothing worse than apps that drain batteries faster than necessary. Bad for the user and the environment as it drives the device to premature obsolescence.
I would like to use the ios app, but I need to upgrade my ipad (only have ios 9 due to 32 bit hardware). Sure would be nice to use to chat with my parents. I'd pay for their service. I might buy an updated iPad just so I could use BBMe.
I just wish they brought the Hub+ to ios. It's the only reason my wife and I stick with our BB10 devices.
