Macadamian Launches Messenger App for Facebook on BB10


(PR Web Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) Gatineau, QC (PRWEB) February 14, 2014 Macadamian Technologies, a full-service software design and development firm, today announced the launch of its messenger app for Facebook on the BlackBerry 10 platform that it developed in partnership with Cello Applications. The messenger app for Facebook lets users instantly chat with Facebook friends without having to launch the full Facebook app. This provides a simpler and faster chatting experience.



“The Macadamian messenger app for Facebook on BlackBerry 10 is a fast and free way to stay in touch,” said Francois Boisvert, VP consulting services, Macadamian. “It's just like having all of your Facebook friends at your fingertips.” The new messenger app for Facebook on the BB10 platform makes it easy for users to instantly reach the people they care about. It provides all of the familiar messaging capabilities while leveraging the BB10 platform to provide a unique experience. These features include accessing messages without opening Facebook and even chatting while using other apps. The app provides an at-a-glance view to easily see who is active on Facebook and easily search for contacts. The messenger app for Facebook also provides an enhanced chat experience with contact typing notification, sticker and emoticon display, and flexible notification settings to turn off notifications when working or sleeping.

Designed specifically for the BlackBerry 10 platform, the app allows users to connect multiple communication networks by tapping into their BlackBerry Messenger (BBM) contacts to send an invitation to connect and download the messenger app for Facebook. In addition, the app meets BlackBerry 10’s stringent security requirements using OAuth Authentication with HTTPS and SSL transport.


“This app provides a compelling Facebook messaging experience for BlackBerry 10 users,” said David Kary, founder of Cello Applications. “BlackBerry’s grassroots developer support made the BlackBerry 10 platform a clear choice for this best-of-breed mobile app that will impact users globally."
