    Straw Poll

    The BBM improvement poll: I tried to make a list of issues I have seen mentioned around various communities about what should be addressed in future BBM updates.
    Since the community Sticker-effort seems to have paid off, I was thinking "why not take the same approach for other issues?"

    So please take a moment and select a few (3-4?) features on the list you think would benefit BBM the most, and let's see if one or two issues pop out as the most prevalent. Maybe we can get those issues noticed and even resolved in the same way as with the Stickers.

    (I know I missed some stuff, like multi-device BBM with the same BBID, but the idea here is that this won't be the last poll of its kind.)

    AWESOME LIST
    Can you edit the poll?

    Channel pics seem to be good quality to me(as long as the uploaded picture was good quality), it's display pics that are downscaled for no good reason.

    Either way, that's a good list for now. Let's see how many things they get done

    Edit: hmm, my vote doesn't seem to be registering
    Edit nvm it just took a minute

    You need to restrict people to the "top 5 (or 3)", otherwise you'll likely get a very uninformative poll result.

    Anyway, I picked better chat history export/backup. Has to be the most important missing feature, even if you don't realize it yet.

    I know it's a touchy subject but: Stickers. Love them or hate them, with BBM's new 'be in control' mantra, we should be able to customize the order of the sticker packs and remove packs not wanted any longer in your collection. Why not the ability to make a favorites folder with your most used stickers from various packs? Also, if you don't like them, we should also have the ability to enable / disable stickers altogether.

    2. Two stickers on Q10 take out whole conversation screen - I want option in BBM to remove/hide them completely. Not everyone here is a kid, some just want to communicate.

    1) Always been there, and can't see it ever leaving. BBM Protected seems to have folks confused. It increases the current peer2peer security.

    2) Here! Here!

    Nice Poll here's some more stuff to add to your poll.

    1. File, media and location sharing in multi-person chats and Group Chats.

    2. Timed messages and message retraction in multi-person chats and Group Chats.

    3. Improved Channels sharing capabilities: Sharing Channels and articles within channels not only in individual chats not but in multi-person and Group Chats as well.

    4. Improved Group Management: being able to change the name of the Group without having to delete it and start from scratch.

    Mainly I'd like to see all the same options and features currently in individual chats, in multi-person and Group Chats as well.

    Font size & emoticons on Android devices are terribly small & it is so difficult to read BBM messages. Please make bigger fonts for BBM or let us choose the font size.

    Emoticons are way too tiny to know what they Are.

    Yeah that's unfortunate! I will still keep track of any much requested features and will post them to the Beta Zone if they are not there yet.

    I'll try and make a new poll in a few days with the best options so far. (can't hurt to at least keep it going for a while right?.)

    My ideas to improve:

    1. Way faster picture receiving!!!!

    2. Adding a 'Recent used emoticons' tab into the keyboard.

    3. After pressing an emoticon stay at the emoticons rather than switching back to the keyboard. Think about what happens if you want to send lots of kisses to your girlfriend /wife... it takes ages now.

    4. Make the BBM faster!

    Load at oldest unread message feature should be NO.1

    Its the main reason most of my friends shunn BBM in our groups chats.

    How can it have so little votes. Dont you guys have busy group chats?

    BTW. Want to see BBM explode? Have phone numbers as a contact adding OPTION.

    Add a non-recurring calendar-timed or selectably time-deferred message option to two-person, multi-person, & group chats. Message gathering & alerts are already handled by general phone features such as bedtime mode & automatic phone power off/power on.

    Make list names editable by at least the administrator (& at best, an administrator check list of authorized list editors). Currently, one must start a list from scratch just to change the name of the list.

    I second that notion for invitations by phone numbers as another option.

    Adding invites is currently confusing when confirming someone who has accepted an initial invitation or when responding to the invitation.

    How do we put others' or our own list of apps in BBM to use?? How do we add more apps that we already have to this list (as applies to apps that could tie into BBM)?

    Oh! The add by phone # option IS there. Instead of using suggested contacts, press the add contact button up top & add contacts via SMS.

    I agree... it's never a feature that I actually used so I disabled the feature. You can turn it on or off in settings.

    I think you have misunderstood our friend's earlier post. What he means is that instead of finding who amongst your friends have BBM using an email address, BBM should use phone number to detect who on your phone book has BBM & then suggest that you add him or her.

    Currently 9 out of 10 of my friends don't store email addresses of their contacts in their phones. That's why they cannot find their other friends using BBM. So to these people the current way to find their friends is useless.
