Most reviews focus on access issues and feature gaps. The majority report sign-in/sign-up failures, missing activation emails, and awkward account recovery, sometimes with no signup option. Many feel BBM has been discontinued or limited for general users. A smaller but clear portion praises BBM Enterprise for strong security and expresses nostalgia for older BBM features, urging restoration of classic functions (stickers, emojis, widgets) or a more open signup with separate pricing. Overall: security praised, usability and availability concerns dominate.

### Pros

- Strong security and privacy is praised, with reviewers calling BBMe the most secure messaging option.
- Some users view BBM Enterprise as a solid, reliable messenger and overall positive app quality.

### Cons

- Activation emails failing and support flow (case numbers) making access difficult.
- Perceived discontinuation or gating of access for normal users, with many calling to bring back or relaunch BBM.
- Missing legacy features (stickers, emojis, BBMe widget, ping/status) driving dissatisfaction.
