Hub Browser
Hub Browser updated with Passport support and more
26
It wasn't too long ago that I told you about a handy productivity application from Tundra Core Studios called Hub Browser. It's main purpose is to grant users quick and easy access to links sent via text, email, or any other location in the BlackBerry 10 OS, without having to leave the Hub or current application. Plain and simple, instead of your device launching the BlackBerry 10...
Block those unwanted calls
Grab this useful call blocking application
75
One of the most anticipated features in OS 10.3, at least for me as a former BBOS user, is that call blocking applications would finally be possible. With BlackBerry opening up the API to developers it was only a matter of time before a variety of applications were made available to ensure calls from those pesky telemarketers or other callers you may not want to get through do not get...
Grab a cup of Starbucks coffee with this app
Satisfy your Starbucks addiction with this app
40
Normally, I am not a coffee drinker. I usually get my caffeine fix from a can of soda. However, I must say that during this time of year, there is a propensity towards a certain seasonal drink at Starbucks, aka Pumpkin Spice Latte. If you are like me, you don't always have your Starbucks Loyalty card handy. To ensure you not only receive your gold stars on purchases but satisfy your...

Howdy CrackBerry nation! Another week has come a close here on the blogs and I must say it has been a pretty great one. Not only will James be hanging out at the Mercedes AMG Petronas and presented us with his top ten game choices for the Passport, but we saw a few more awesome pictures of the not yet released BlackBerry Classic. In case you missed it, be sure to take the State of the...

Power Tools gets BlackBerry Passport Support
56
Power Tools hands down has to be my most used productivity application. It combines several must-needed applications into one. From tracking your battery, having a homescreen wallpaper changer, choosing a Custom LED for contacts, apps, and messages, to blocking incoming calls and messages and scheduling event sounds and alarms. It's a full-featured application that fully enhances the...

On a daily basis, my BlackBerry serves as more than a communication device. From juggling a hectic calendar and several email accounts to simply switching between multiple screens, getting things done is a priority for me. One of the applications readily available to users to aid in this task is ClipMan Clipboard Manager. This headless application allows users to quickly and easily...
Grab this useful GPS Photo and Location app
Get the who, what, where, and when of your photos with Taken

Many of us look to our BlackBerry to capture, edit, and share photos. There is another options we can use to organize them well and that is Geolocation information or Geotagging. If you have ever browsed through your albums and asked yourself where an image was taken then you will enjoy Taken. Taken is quite simple in how it operates, as it utilizes the GPS tags already embedded in...

This headless utility application allows users to automatically divert SMS messages to one or more designated email addresses. Speaking from experience, business professionals will find this to be an extremely useful application to track and archive important conversations. Features...

Enjoy some 8-bit fun with BurgerCopter
18
Up in the sky, it's a bird, it's a plane, no wait it's a hamburger. Not literally, but for the purposes of this game the main character is a burger. From the developer that brought you Fly Fly Up, both games are based on a simple concept yet follow through on execution. Being that I am always commuting or working, BurgerCopter is a way to pass the time or when you need to take a break...

In this day and age, our messages play an important role in our lives. Whether it is tracking important emails for work or communicating with friends and family, there are certain conversations and information that need to be tracked or kept for long periods of time. For example, you never know when that brief text from a client may be necessary later on. One of the applications...

Free copies of Smart Watch and NFC Companion
50
For those of you who own a BlackBerry and a Pebble, the number of native applications meant for both is small. While that may be true it does not mean that a few talented developers haven't found a way to bring additional functionality for those of us who carry both. This includes the person behind Cast for BlackBerry and MediaX. If you are not familiar with these applications, Smart...

Camera++, an advanced photography tool for BlackBerry 10
116
Not to sound like a broken record, but my BlackBerry serves as my primary camera. No matter where I am or what may be going on around me, it is always there to grab the planned or impromptu shot to document the events in my life. While there is no shortage of photography applications available, I am a strong believer in always having options. Designed by the same team behind Effetica,...
Be more productive with this handy app
Quickly access the internet from the Hub
54
Since the release of BlackBerry 10, one of the features I utilize the most on a day-to-day basis is the Hub. It is the quintessential feature in my book as it allows easy access to all my accounts without having to switch screens or jump through various menus. As we are all aware, this practical feature makes life simpler so that I can be more productive and get things done faster....

Howdy CrackBerry nation! I probably do not have to recap the week for you but if you happened to miss it (and I say if because our eyes were all glued to the live feed on Wednesday) the BlackBerry Passport is finally here. At this very moment, mine is in on the delivery truck and there are no words to express my excitement. That being said, I highly recommend, rather sternly suggest,...

A while back, we told you about an application called Signal Tracker.

If you happened to open up the BBM Stickers shop tonight you might have noticed two new packs are now available to purchase for $1.99. The first is that finicky feline Garfield, known for his distaste of Mondays and his predilection for lasagna. For those who are a fan of the beloved comic strip this set includes all of the characters you know and love including John, Odie, and Arlene....

An addictive matching game for BlackBerry 10
46
The candy craze may not be over quite yet, or at least that is what this latest game would lead you to believe. However, this newest release from BlackBerry 10 developer Marco Gallo is a completely different match-3 game. As such, the look and feel of it cannot be compared to Candy Crush or any other three-in-a-row game. Previously available to download in the BlackBerry Beta Zone, the...
