Blackberry’s latest update to its popular app has been designed to boost its privacy level.

BlackBerry has recently announced that the latest update to the BBM Messenger, across the versions for BB10, iOS, and Android devices, has been launched in order to help to enhance the mobile security level that will protect the privacy of the users.

A new feature has become a central part of the update to the smartphone app, specifically aimed at privacy.

The company has decided to add the additional security feature as a part of the premium components of the app. This mobile security addition can be purchased for a monthly or annual subscription fee. It provides BBM Messenger users with access to a range of features that will include the ability to send a timed message that will self destruct once it has been read, as well as the opportunity to stop their sender details from being revealed on the interface.

Among the more appealing of these mobile security features for BBM Messenger is to retract a mistakenly sent message.

This would mean that if a message was sent to the wrong recipient, by accident, or if the mobile app user changes his or her mind about the message that was sent, it is possible to retract it as long as the recipient has not yet seen it.

The users of the free BBM Messenger service won’t be without the additional mobile privacy features. However, theirs will be limited when compared to the ones that will be offered with the premium subscription. For instance, people who are using the free app will still be able to send timed messages that will self destruct.

However, they will not have access to the additional feature that allows them to keep their user details a secret from those with whom they are communicating. Furthermore, it continues to allow recipients to take screenshots that could be saved as evidence, potentially negating the benefit of the self destructing timed messages.

The retracted messages are also a mobile security feature that will be saved exclusively for those who will be using the service through a paid subscription.

In a recent non-paid review from OSReviews this power bank stood out above the competition.

Popular YouTube video review channel OSReviews has placed its focus on the Mogix portable battery charger and has pointed out the many ways that this device was able to shine within its category.

Among the first things that was pointed out in the review was the powerful dual charging ports.

The reviewer demonstrated that not only does the Mogix portable battery charger make it possible to plug two different devices in at the same time, but that it also makes it possible to recharge a device at a rate that is even faster than plugging it in to the average wall socket. This is a very attractive feature in a backup power bank as it allows the device to be recharged as quickly as possible.

The small, light, and durable construction of the portable battery charger from Mogix was also spotlighted.

This 10400 mAh mobile power bank was also praised for its durable, sleek, and attractive construction and the fact that it is quite slim and light. The one downside to its glossy exterior was that it attracts fingerprints. Equally, those can be easily wiped away using virtually any kind of soft fabric cloth. The reviewer pointed out that it feels solid in the hand and has a consistent weight distribution, each of which revealed careful attention to quality.

The top corner of this mobile battery pack offers a button for an LED indicator that reveals how much battery power is left within the device. This is made up of four LED lights, each of which represents approximately 25 percent of the complete charge of the gadget.

All of the ports (the two USB outputs for recharging mobile devices and the micro USB input for charging up the battery pack, itself through a computer or a wall charger) are all available on the top. The reviewer pointed out that the device isn’t much wider than the USB ports, themselves, showing that this portable battery charger is very slim, despite the large amount of power that it holds, and can be easily carried in a pocket and is “easy to carry around”.

When the power bank was tested with two devices, it was determined that even when “simultaneously charging to products at once has no effect on the charging rate, the speed, or the temperature of the power bank.”

A spokesperson from Mogix, Angelia Linders was pleased to see the review and explained that “We are thrilled about our 5 Star customer satisfaction reports, scoring 95%, showing people are loving how dependable and easy our Slim Fit power banks really are.”  More information is also available through the Mogix YouTube Channel.
