BBM for iOS gets update to fix font issue with iOS 7.0.3

On Wednesday, we told you that BBM for iOS was crashing on iOS 7.0.3. This was happening because a font used on the BBM app was removed from Apple devices with the iOS 7.0.3 update. We did show you a way to work around the glitch, but who wants to have to use it every time you want to contact someone using the messaging app?

So that is why we are happy to report that the BBM for iOS app has received an update that makes it compatible with Apple's latest iOS build. But that isn't the only change that the update brought. While they had BBM up on the table, the Canadian OEM's developers and engineers decided to add some new features like contact categories and list sorting and filtering in BBM Groups, along with the usual performance improvements and as we know, bug fixes.

BBM for iOS is now the number one free app in the App Store. If you already downloaded it and want a crash-free version, or if you haven't installed it on your iOS flavored device yet, click on the sourcelink.
