URL scheme to launch blackberry messenger in iOS

Question

If i need to check whether Facebook is installed on my iOS device, i can check it by :

if([[UIApplication sharedApplication] canOpenURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"fb://"]])

Is there any url scheme for bbm ?

I have tried for bbm://, but didn't work.

Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

I got the url scheme, its bbmc:// , You can detect whether bbm is installed on your iOS device by

if([[UIApplication sharedApplication] canOpenURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"bbmc://"]])

Blackberry should provide it on its site like instagram did like this.

Answer 2

I've found three URL schemes for the app:

• bbmi://
• pin://
• bbmc://

it is unknown what they are really doing after the application opens.

Answer 3

I don't think there is. If you want to know for certain, you can open the ipa for it (it's a zip file), and find the plist. Within the plist, you can check if it registers any schemes.
