Today, BlackBerry pushed an update to its BBM for iPhone application (also known as BlackBerry Messenger) featuring an all-new contact-adding experience.

In addition to the obligatory bug fixes and performance improvements, BBM version 2.3.0.12 makes it easier to add new contacts by PIN, email, SMS and barcode.

Among other new features, the revamped software also permits you to search for BBM users, as well as review and accept invites from other people using the cross-platform messaging service…

Back in June, BlackBerry redesigned BBM’s sign up and friending interface while adding new emoticons and improving experience for adding new contacts by email.

  • Add new contacts to BBM by PIN, email, SMS, and barcode
  • Review and accept invites from other BBM users

  • Invite address book contacts to download BBM
  • Display your barcode and scan barcodes all in one screen

Download BBM free in the App Store.
