BlackBerry Messenger app is set to be available on Android and Apple's iOS , according to reports.
The instant messenger service, BBM, which is one of the most popular tools on the phone, has only been available exclusively on the BlackBerry platform until now.
According to Boy Genius Report, a technology blog, Research In Motion, BlackBerry's parent company, has been in talks with Apple and Google about making the software available to users across all three platforms.
But the pricing or timing details are yet to be finalised, and BGR has cited "multiple trusted sources" as its backup.
"We're also told strategy is still being developed, however, and RIM may end up charging users a one-time fee or even a recurring fee for access to its BBM service on third-party platforms," the Telegraph quoted the report as saying.
"As far as what Android and iOS users can look forward to, we've been told RIM will offer stripped down versions of the BBM experience BlackBerry owners know and love.
"That way, Android and iOS users can communicate with practically anyone who has a smartphone using BBM, but they might not be able to share photos, location, or videos.
