Pintagram by Marco Gallo

Pintagram is a third party application for the cross-platform instant messaging system called Telegram. Telegram users are able to exchange encrypted and self-destructing messages, videos, photos, and documents. One BlackBerry developer has taken it upon himself to create a native unofficial version for BlackBerry 10. With this application users can not only utilize Telegram's features such as their cloud storage and group chat capabilities, but also offers sending files up to 1GB. The developer behind Ice Cubes and Nostalgia has created a free, no ad, application that also has Hub integration. If you are a current user you can find it at the link.

Tap Heroes by YuchGame

A suggestion made by one of our users, Tap Heroes is an enjoyable time killer. Gameplay is rather simple, all you have to do is quickly tap to beat the monster/boss in a limited time to advance to the next level as well as collect the coins. This game tests not only your hand speed but gives you over 200 levels for you to beat. Between collecting coins, weapons, and marveling at the amazing graphics this is sure to keep you occupied for hours on end and is quite enjoyable. This application is free to download for the Q10, Q5, Z10, Z3, and Z30.

Goodreads by Goodreads

One of my favorite pastimes is reading. No matter where I am, I always carry a book with me whether it is a paperback, hardcover, or an electronic version to read on my devices. Goodreads grants users the ability to register their books and create an online reading list. Book lovers will enjoy how it lets them review what their reading, find new and interesting books based on what you've read, see what your friends are reading and their reviews, join groups based on specific interests and more. Whether you wish to discover something new or keep track of where you are (6% read of A Dance with Dragons!), you can find this application in the Amazon Appstore.

Head Words by Ebscer

If you're a fan of the Heads Up game then you'll be pleased with this native BlackBerry version. Head Words is a multi-player guessing game that is similar to charades whereby after a user selects a category they place their device on their forehead while the other players offer clues for them to guess the word, phrase, etc. The player can tilt the phone down for a correct answer or up to pass. If you are searching for a great party game on your BlackBerry 10 handset then you can grab it for FREE and start playing!
