Using the mobile browser site is no different, and will most likely provide a better experience if you use something like Kiwi browser. So it's just a pick whatever looks good to you approach. Every other webwrapper hasn't been updated for ages. And stopped maintaining his work ages ago. Overall scummy guy - And the person who at the time made some of the best webwrappers around. He is known for selling free apps for money, ripping other peoples work off, and threatening to steal peoples data. How most of these older apps worked is that you sent your login information to a third party Server - His, which acts as a middle man. The best webwrapper made is by a guy called Nemory, who is a known scam artist and is sketchy - And his apps aren't recommended for security purposes. Everything else in the store is just a webwrapper. Twitter is gone and Blaq is partially broken, and only available to people who already bought it. Google Maps: There are native web wrappers that will work well for this.ĮBooks: playePub Reader (native app in Blackberry World) is VERY solid and handles ePub and MOBI files with ease.
YouTube: There are many native apps (FastTube is one) that work well with YouTube.Īmazon/Amazon Music: I believe both of these will work via APK but will test if you'd like. Twitter: There are still some native apps that work well for Twitter. Instagram: A native app known as Inst10 works quite well for this. I'll start by saying please do not be concerned about the suggestion to disable Blackberry Protect, as Blackberry Limited has confirmed all BB10 services (BBID, Protect, etc.) will keep working well into 2020.įacebook Messenger: This works via a lite version.ĭiscord: I'm unsure but can test if you'd like.Į-Mail: Gmail and any other e-mail service that uses standard protocols works natively in the Blackberry Hub.įacebook: Works via Facebook Lite APK or a number of native web wrapper-style apps. pdf and epub files?Īnd good alternatives to Google Docs and Drive would be much appreciated! Discord (if there's a way to get discord to work, at all). So, then, which are the applications work on the platform?Ĭhat applications: Facebook Messenger.
Until then, I could happily switch over to a BlackBerry Passport, and even if BlackBerry decide to not license the brand to another OEM, I could still continue using the Passport until the hardware falls apart/android runtime for the apps expires. I could of course get a Key2 once again, but if I am going to drop that kind of money, I might as well wait and see what goes down with the brand, especially with TCL not playing ball, anymore. Am getting more and more fed up with my slab/s, and I think I may finally just make the switch over to a BlackBerry.
