BBM on iOS has been a runaway hit from all accounts. But some users are experiencing crash issues since updating to iOS 7.0.3. It can crash when trying to send messages, photos or even just at startup. There’s been a fair amount of noise about this online. For example, check out the CrackBerry forums.
Now BlackBerry has identified the issue. Apparently BBM uses the “HelveticaNeue-Italic” font and it was removed in the 7.0.3 update. This is causing the app to crash. But this Tweet from BlackBerry suggests a fix might be imminent:

So stay tuned to the App Store on your iDevice for the fix. It sounds like it will be here shortly.
UPDATE: BlackBerry is pushing an update through the App Store. Download away!
