Show Smiley in BBM Status Updates On Android [Emoticons]

While updating your status on Blackberry Messenger (BBM) you have the option of inserting a number of smiley(s) alongside. Performing this task on a Blackberry device is way straight forward, you just hit the Menu Button, select the 'Add Smiley' option and insert it wherever you please.

This feature is available on the Android platform too, but it's quite different on an Android device because you need to insert it manually while updating your status.
(-as at the time of this posting)

Either way, both methods will give the same result.


I gathered the symbols for a couple of smiley(s) one could use on BBM. To use any, copy the symbols below and paste it in a note app on your device so you could use it anytime you need it. You could as well memorize them if you can. Once you insert it manually, it automatically becomes a smiley.

You could quickly jump to whichever symbol you need if you know the name of the smiley by hitting CTRL + F on your keyboard to find it
