How To Know Your BBM Message Has Been Read

If you’re new to the Blackberry, you’ll likely discover Blackberry Messenger (BBM), a free app that lets you instant message for free via Blackberry’s network (with other Blackberry users). Many people seem to prefer BBM over regular text messaging as it’s free to send and receive messages. The other huge advantage is you are notified if the message recipient has received and read the BBM message you sent. How do you know your BBM message has been read? Look for the the small ‘D’ notification to say it’s been delivered, and look for the small ‘R’ notification to know it’s been read. See below for a diagram showing a Blackberry Messenger message showing as read by the recipient.
