Ok, quite interesting. Now give me one.

KPMcClave Oct 8, 2011 at 11:52 am

I guess maybe it is just me, but I don't see much of a need for these BBM connected apps like BB Music and Inquery (just that type, others that update your status and what not are cool).

I have a total of 4 or 5 true BBM contacts (+ text messaging contacts incorporated in to BBM), and there doesn't seem to be much value added to those type of BBM integrated apps for me. In fact, even if all my texting contacts were true BBM contacts (I'd say between 15-20), I still don't see much value added. It seems you would need a ton of BBM contacts to make those apps worthwhile, and then you start to lose some of the value of BBM.

cbdwolff7 Oct 8, 2011 at 11:54 am

OoooooH, I need this app, would love for free! I use my bb timer all the time. A new type would be Awesome! Thanks Crackberry!

SCrid2000 Oct 8, 2011 at 1:02 pm

There's already a timer and a stopwatch in the stock OS, but it's free so if I win I'll take it.

BB_Bmore Oct 8, 2011 at 1:07 pm

I could use this to time my 40 yard dash speed when my wife screems that its my turn to change the babys diapers.¤ Note to devs¤ please make my blackberry change diapers,I would surely sucribe to that app!

gyubok Oct 8, 2011 at 1:35 pm

cobracam Oct 8, 2011 at 1:37 pm

I like it, it's a good program.

breakmedown Oct 8, 2011 at 1:49 pm

Though I already use the stopwatch and timer on my BB the "down-repeat" mode is something I've always wished it could do. So I'd likee this if not for that alone!
