Welcome to our first installment of the Top 10 Blackberry Apps of the week! Much akin to our Android list we compile once a week we will focus on a combination of native apps available on Blackberry World and ported apps available on Good e-Reader.
Good e-Reader is the only mainstream website with advanced tools to allow the public to convert Android files to Blackberry Files. Learn more about our free APK TO BAR convertor. We spend around 30 hours a week testing popular Android apps on Blackberry devices such as the Playbook and Blackberry 10 OS. We recognize that Blackberry World is severely lacking with quality apps and no serious developers really make Blackberry a priority. This is why you won’t find Pinterest, Snapchat, Netflix, Hulu, or a thousand other great apps. We have them on our store and will showcase the best apps in a dedicated weekly segment.
Are you new to sideloading Blackberry Apps on your Z10, Z30, Q5, Q10 or Playbook? Learn more about the process involved with our easy to use software and tutorial videos HERE.
