If you are using BBM to text to other users, update now to BBM version 7, so that you can also voice call. The only limitation is users can only voice call using WiFi.
Using Bluetooth or wired headset, or speakerphone, users can BBM Voice call directly or instantly switch from a chat to talk and back again. Using the split-screen feature users can talk and text at the same time. When on a voice call, they can check other BBM text chats, check email, or navigate to other apps. If the other users are available to voice call a visual indicator shows up. If he cannot voice call back, he can just text back. Voice chat is integrated with a user's BlackBerry ID, to back up BBM profile, groups and contacts for restoring to a new BlackBerry smartphone or BlackBerry 10 device.
BBM version 7 with the new BBM Voice feature is in Beta for BlackBerry smartphones running the BlackBerry 6 OS or higher. Support for smartphones running BlackBerry 5 OS is planned for a future date. Sign up to BlackBerry Beta Zone for free at www.BlackBerry.com/betazone and download the upgrade.
