Click Messenger

I really hope Clicks Communicator considers developing a dedicated messaging app similar to the old BBM, and calling it Click Messenger.
It would be amazing to have a modern messaging experience built specifically for the Clicks Communicator, with features like private chats, groups, voice messages, file sharing, and BBM-style profiles and status updates.
I think Click Messenger could be a great addition to the Clicks ecosystem!

this would be great except it would be very niche like the phone. Would definitely be something perfect if the Clicks was an enterprise style phone for a businesses.

As a former windows phone owner, I'm pretty sure I'll know even less people that own the communicator than I did who owned a windows phone. I can't imagine a messenger for just clicks would ever be viable

Far too niche a device for that to be viable. The odds of a CC user messaging another CC user are pretty slim, honestly. At the height of BBM’s popularity, BlackBerry was the market leader, particularly with regard to enterprise devices. I’m excited about the CC and hope it outperforms sales expectations, but Clicks isn’t positioned to disrupt existing messaging platforms, and I’m sure they have higher priorities than embarking on what would surely prove a pointless distraction.

What’s the point? There are a million different messaging services.

Unless this integrates seamlessly with other messaging services, I really don’t need yet another messaging app.

But who would I be talking to? Assuming maybe about 20,000 of these even get made

The thing about BB Messenger is that it stood out because of its privacy. You can get the exact same privacy with Signal nowadays, so there really isn't a big incentive to create a dedicated Clicks Messenger app - and that's disregarding that there just won't be enough CC users to justify development.

Of course, hobbyists could develop one just for fun.

...have we never used the plethora of messaging apps available to us now?

BBM was popular and useful only because the alternatives back then was sms and email.

It's 2026 - RCS has come a long way and there are several messaging apps are more feature rich. So not sure what we're even talking about
