iBee Farting - Best BlackBerry Fart App Yet?!!

By Kevin Michaluk on 10 Feb 2009 05:12 pm

BlackBerry Fart Apps: If you watched College Humor's hilarious Cell Phone Reunion movie we posted to the blogs last night you might come away thinking that BlackBerry smartphones can't fart. That's not the case!! BlackBerry Fart apps are starting to stink up the CrackBerry App Store at an alarming rate. First, it was the Fart Machine - very basic, but it got the gas out for $2.99. Then came PhoneyFart, which for $1 less comes with a free trial of 20 minutes or 20 farts (brilliant). Then a free fart app popped up in the forums, Cippi the Farting Chipmunk. Cipi's not a built-for-BlackBerry app (ported over), so it kind of really stinks (doesn't use up the screen, navigation is a bit wonky and doesn't seem to run on the Storm) but the price is right for bargain farters who don't mind that this one may be requiring a wipe.

iBee Farting: That brings us to the next contender in the evolving battle for BlackBerry Fart App supremecy, iBee Farting. I haven't farted around with iBee Farting too much yet, but if you plan on having a fart app face off (a$$ off?!) with your iPhone-owning, fart-app loving friends, from my first impressions this is probably the BlackBerry fart app you'll want to go with.

iBee Farting features include:

Record your own sounds (farts / burps / other bodily noises), be creative! (not available on the Storm).
Adjustable Time Delay (5 to 30 seconds)
Random Fun Facts about Farts!
Preloaded with over 10+ farts and burps sounds
Shake and Fart (BlackBerry Storm only) - You can shake your BlackBerry Storm to make it fart!
Free 20 minute trial

iBee Farting is available for the Bold, Curve 8900 and Storm and sells for $1.99. I installed it on both my Bold and Storm. The built-in farts are pretty good (there's a couple of burps too), and on the non-Storm versions there is a fart recorder within the app so you can record and playback your own toots. Due to a known bug on OS4.7.0.75 on Storm's OS, you need to actually have OS4.7.0.99 installed for it to play sounds properly (see product page for details). A free trial is available, so you give that a go before you buy.

I think next week I'm going to put together a video shoot out of all the BlackBerry fart apps going butt to butt. I'm guessing there'll be a couple more out by then too! In the meantime, give them a go and post your feedback in the comments!

First it was a lightsaber app...now its a Fart app, Im glad I have a curve and not a Storm cause I would be pissed knowing that the Iphone has a ton of cool apps and these are the apps that are coming out for the storm...I plan on getting a Storm in the next 6 months so I hope they step up their game. I mean, what is the demographic they are targeting...14 year old's with a nasty video game habbit??

Wait til the app center comes out for blackberry. Until then your comparison isn't valid.

moosc Feb 11, 2009 at 10:51 am

man just read an article stated 31 fart apps in 90 seconds on the app store from apple omg thats alot

piggly009 Feb 10, 2009 at 5:48 pm

How do you think the apple app store started. with a few basic apps that show what the device is capable of doing and it leads to more complex better ones.

pecanBB Feb 10, 2009 at 5:31 pm

Are you kidding me iPhone has more kiddy apps than anything lol

javgue31 Feb 10, 2009 at 5:37 pm

this app should be free!!!

cjmjmm2006 Feb 10, 2009 at 5:44 pm

Hmmmm, who cares..

hennesseystealth Feb 10, 2009 at 5:50 pm

When I hit the free trial link it says no free trial for the selected device (Storm)...what's up?

ibeemobile Feb 10, 2009 at 6:24 pm

we are fixing working with mobihand. it was working before, as it is currently working for the Bold and the Curve.

will keep you updated.

Thanks.

ibeemobile Feb 10, 2009 at 7:53 pm

this is now fixed.

Thanks.

legendofdon Feb 10, 2009 at 6:33 pm

nevermind

RobUM2011 Feb 10, 2009 at 6:11 pm

I will never, ever, ever, ever, ever, everevereverever......... PAY for a blackberry application that does nothing more than make fart noises.

Mastr0 Feb 10, 2009 at 6:34 pm

when i click on free trial for the storm it says: No Free Trial Available

Am I missing something?

hennesseystealth Feb 10, 2009 at 6:42 pm

See the above comment reply to my previous post...I can hardly wait to own a $199 whoopie cushion.

hudres Feb 10, 2009 at 6:39 pm

Is it really necessary to encourage this infantile behavior?

Kevin Michaluk Feb 10, 2009 at 7:28 pm

That's a good question. I sorta held off on blogging fart apps for as long as I could! But once there's one app, then two, then three, then four...gotta round em up and post them or else I'm not doing my job! But don't worry... we'll try and keep the fart app posts down to a minimum. In the meantime, just scroll down to the next story. :)

I just purchased this application and I have to say that I'm a bit disappointed with the fart selection and the volume of the farts. My co-worker couldnt even hear it and he was sitting about 10 feet away from me. If it had a volume adjustment, I think it would appeal to me a bit more. I think next time I'll save my two bucks and buy a double cheeseburger from McDonalds so that I can reproduce the fart noises naturally.

soulbreak Feb 10, 2009 at 7:31 pm

I might have bought this if you could record sounds on the storm...

PvT Feb 10, 2009 at 7:38 pm

I just about pooped myself when I saw this...

abdala_24 Feb 10, 2009 at 7:46 pm

Cippi the Farting Chipmunk is working fine for me. Uses up the whole screen and is really good. Plus its free.

312 Feb 10, 2009 at 7:48 pm

I downloaded the lightsaber app to piss my dog off...

No way in hell I'd download, let alone PAY, for this app.

jfriz81579 Feb 10, 2009 at 8:07 pm

Had to download it...what can I say....I can't buy it though. On my storm when I click bb>buy it takes me to a page that says your shopping cart is empty, and I can't click on anything! :(

level Feb 10, 2009 at 8:51 pm

...not.

teddrironalloy Feb 10, 2009 at 9:00 pm

anyone else notice this? Grammar mistake in the picture (app)
"fart sounds is produced" should be "fart sounds are produced"

fart machine Feb 10, 2009 at 10:08 pm

i farted about ten times just reading about the thing....surprisingly i wasnt charged anything.

headshrink Feb 10, 2009 at 10:13 pm

This is such a guy app

A£aric Feb 10, 2009 at 10:21 pm

.. for simple minds.

Hiatus69 Feb 10, 2009 at 10:54 pm

Most of the comments are in disgrace of this app. When looking at iphone apps the fart and childish apps are known as the greatest....with BB it is seen as not worth it. This just goes to show you how much more professional and matrure BB users are. ;)

jfriz81579 Feb 10, 2009 at 11:52 pm

Had to have it

Anonymous2 Feb 11, 2009 at 1:44 am

I've had all 3 and even though this one looks cool, i prefer phoney fart

missouriboy611 Feb 11, 2009 at 2:08 am

I might have purchased this if I was still... I don't know, 8 years old. But I'm an adult, and it is certainly disgusting that is for sure!

real hack berry Feb 11, 2009 at 8:20 am

What the hell is wrong with you people 2 dollars for a program that farts!!!!! FU#@*ng stupid!!!!! why cant the devz for blackberry apps be more user friendly and produce apps that are out their for everyone??? I mean who would actually buy this peace of sh#* app any way? really stupid!!! These apps should be free!!!! I could see paying for a service but most of the programs that are on this site don't do much and cost a sh*# tone of money. To each there own I guess, but some how I will end up getting these apps for free and be sure that I will be sharing with the rest of the world and the rest of you should be doing the same!!! FU#* these to bit programmers and there nine dollar themes stupid idiots!!!!!

che85mor Feb 11, 2009 at 8:59 am

"fart sounds IS produced by"? wtf

Pathetic that you can program a phone to FART but you can't speak correctly.

vanessakay Feb 11, 2009 at 11:13 am

gee, have a sence of humor people!!

vanessakay Feb 11, 2009 at 11:15 am

oops my bad, i mean sense

cyberbob Feb 11, 2009 at 12:14 pm

I remember everyone slamming the iPhone for releasing "stupid and useless" apps like these. At least on the iPhone, they are either free or only a buck. For three bucks you can buy several cans of beans and make the farts yourself. Plus you get feed. :-)
