Streamwide has launched the Bzoo OTT instant messaging app for consumers with Android and iOS devices, Les Echos reports. Streamwide uses its operator clients' datacentres, rather than facilities based in the US, as Whatsapp does. Bzoo is interoperable with other OTT IM services and sends an SMS if a correspondent is not immediately contactable by IM.

It competes directly with Orange's Libon offer.
