Nobex for BlackBerry 10 features podcasts with Hub notifications

Nobex Radio was showing off their brand new BlackBerry 10 app at the Toronto launch event recently, and we got to get a good, close look at what was new. The UI is all very Cascadey in terms of menus and transitions, but the real cool stuff with Nobex on BlackBerry 10 is how it plugs into the Hub.

Nobex allows users to add podcast subscriptions (audio or video) and get notifications when new episodes are available to download or stream. As always, Nobex lets users tune into local radio stations for free and if they're willing to pay up, gain access to a vast international catalog. With BlackBerry's in-house Podcasts app being out of commission for the forseeable future, it's likely that Nobex will quickly become the podcatcher of choice for many early BlackBerry Z10 owners. 

Nobex for BlackBerry 10 has been available for a day or two now; if you're one of the lucky few with a Dev Alpha or Z10, you can get downloading at the link below. Any diehard Nobex fans out there? Which music apps beyond Songza, Slacker, Rdio, and TuneIn (which have all been confirmed) would you like to see on BlackBerry 10?

"Cascadey" I like that word.

I've never looked into the Nobex app before and this little preview for BB10 is a nice showcase of what it does...

six6xis

Well done. I will definitely buy this app.

ScottDionBrown

That's an awesome app. I'll definitely be getting it when I get my BB10.

Good looking app. Nice and slick. Slick is becoming THE word to describe the Z10. Can hardly wait to try it out when I get my new device.

Dezz01

Ohh God!!! Tune-In and now Nobex!!! I'm gonna loose my mind!!!

lcgoldman

I think this app just sold me on the Z10... I was on the fence before... but, darned that is HOTT.

I use this on my PlayBook and on my 9810 already. I can't wait to get my Z10!

If PodTrapper doesn't get ported to BB10, I'll definitely be trying this out. Looks very nice.

endevour

thank you so much for podcasts!

moonfalle

good example of a built-for-blackberry app I'm thinking... Gorgeous...been using nobex since came out on playbook and it is excellent.

awesome!!! bb Z10! can't wait to get one!!!

Shame they don't offer a one-off payment option for the app to access radio stations though, I don't use the radio enough to merit subscribing but would have been happy to pay for that functionality.

nobex

Hi there, Nobex here.

Actually, we do offer a one-off payment. There's no more monthly subscription. It's a one-time In App purchase of $9.99, and you are premium for life.

Hope you enjoy Nobex!

Vorkosigan

+1 very nice looking, and functioning app!

Skeevecr

Once I have checked out that podcast support I think I will have to spend some money in that case, need to reward the devs that actually spend the time to make a really nice bb10 app.

I would recommend that you advertise this change in the app details or on your site because this is a very welcome change in the pricing.

I use Nobex on my current 9810. absolutely ROCKS! was hoping they'd make it available on the BB10. Thanks Nobex...can't wait to download

nobex

Thanks all for all the replies. We worked hard on this version, love the capabilities of the platform that are available to us, and it's great to see the reactions and the acceptance by users.

Feel free to email us suggestions or comments to comments@nobexinc.com. And please download, enjoy, and write a review in BlackBerry World.

Enjoy!
