The update brings a wide range of improvements including:

New emoticons: 16 new emoticons have been added to bring more personality to your chats
A simplified PIN barcode screen where you can display and scan barcodes in one place
A new invite screen that includes suggested BBM contacts along with invites you’ve received and sent
BBM Group enhancements: Invite contacts to join your BBM Group through email and SMS
Bug fixes and performance improvements
