When Google released the YouTube app for the Storm only I was a bit peeved. Looks like Xenozu has tried to rectify the situation by releasing their own free YouTube app that works on more devices. So far this looks like another app that is only available in the App World at this link.
This [...]
Bellshare let me know about a new application, BerryPopup, that they just released. BerryPopup is yet another email/SMS popup application that looks quite good. On the other hand this application solution space is getting a bit crowded already… BerryPopup does look really nice though and options are good in case you don’t like one of [...]
I knew it was inevitable before such an application came out. I spend hours a day on my BlackBerry but I never really count all those minutes and time I spend and tally it at the end of the day. EarlySail let me know that they now have a free app that will do [...]
BeFTP is essentially a free FTP client created by the find developers at BEIKS. The program has quite a bit of functionality but it has some limitations in its free version. The main limitation is that it will not remember your connection information after you close the application. This makes the free version good [...]
A bit back we mentioned SaveNumberAs as a solution to our DreamBerry which let you save a number to an existing contact. I searched and it looks like the product is no longer available for sale. (Let me know if that is right) MobiChampion seems to have stepped into the void with their new [...]
Tom let me know that the popular BBFileScout file manager has been updated yet again. Last week we mentioned that they added image thumbnails but this week they added a update that really rounds out that feature. You can now select for thumbnails to be two sizes larger so they are easier to see along [...]
I have to preface this by saying that I don’t know much about the BlackBerry dictation market. From what I can tell you could easily use the voice recorder on newer devices and email the audio file to the transcription service of your choosing or just your secretary.
On the other hand Dataworxs let me [...]
VersatileMonkey let me know that they have updated their popular PodTrapper Podcast Manager application to version 2.0. This new version brings a totally new UI that looks slick along with a bunch of new features. The app is going for a reasonable $9.99 in the store with a 30 day free trial though it might [...]
Mbpyro over at HowardForums spotted a new My Verizon application from Verizon Wireless. It lets you manage your Verizon Wireless account from your BlackBerry which is pretty cool. The sad part is that it looks like it only supports the 8130, 8330, & 8830 leaving Verizon’s flagship BlackBerry Storm out instead of “IN”. Maybe [...]
The very popular donation-ware file manager BBFileScout has just been updated to version 0.6.5 which adds a feature that many will be interested in. The application is under active development which is why we keep mentioning it. This latest version adds thumbnail support for images that you can enable or disable in the options. The [...]
UPDATE: Official word is that OS 4.2+ is required along with a trackball or touchscreen device. Sorry 8700 users.
Okay this is a nice bump for all Facebook fans. Brian just let me know that RIM has released version 1.5.0.31 of their free Facebook application. This is newer than the 1.5.0 version that was leaked [...]
I just found this nice article at BlackBerry Cool about an application called Adorno! MultiAlarm Pro. They have a thorough review, really worth reading if you like alarm applications and think that no, the stock BlackBerry alarm application just doesn’t cut it.
Adorno! MultiAlarm Pro has many features, like recurrence, configurable sounds, snooze, vibrator and a [...]
Yatca is a Twitter client application for BlackBerry devices running OS 4.6+ or later, it delivers updates and replies directly to the BlackBerry’s inbox so you can tweet and reply in much the same way that you work with email and SMS. We mentioned it one month ago. Version 1.4.2 was released three days ago [...]
PhoneFace is a speed dial phone add-on that gets your friends’ profile pictures from your SD card, your Facebook profile and now from your Twitter account, too. It has been around for a while now, but the integration with Twitter is a new feature.
PhoneFace launches phone calls, email and text messages with a simple click [...]
BBFileScout is one great free application, and it’s updated so often it’s almost getting boring. And the change log is quite an example to most of the other BlackBerry applications. This time, it has better search capabilities and a few other minor improvements. Actually, version 0.6 brought the better search capabilities a few days ago. [...]
So what’s on your mind? We often don’t know what’s on our own mind, or rather we do, but there is so much going on that we fail to manage it adequately. So in this day and age people have come up with the concept of “mind maps”, idea charts that help you keep tabs [...]
I’ve always wanted the ability to edit email that I forward from my BlackBerry and was never sure why this wasn’t a feature already on RIM’s OS.
In that spirit, I have decided to try Mobile Imagination’s: Forward with Edit™. It’s a teeny app that hardly takes up any space on your BlackBerry and the only [...]
VR+ has been one of my all-time favorite BlackBerry applications for a long time. Perhaps you have read the review I wrote one year ago. If you haven’t, I think you should. I think it’s very, very useful because it takes mobile texting communication one step further: by sending voice messages instead of text. Why [...]
Have you ever wished you could tell who’s emailing you without having to pick up your BlackBerry and look inside your ‘messages’ folder? Well, Pimp My Mail is a program that does just that.
From Motek Mobile, Pimp My Mail is a software application that helps you customize and personalize your email notification by sender, using [...]
Recently, I’ve had the opportunity to test and suggest new features for the latest software to protect your BlackBerry smart phone, it’s called Smrtguard. Their latest software brings many features that strive to protect your BlackBerry and avoid sensitive information landing in the wrong hands. One of the increasing trends among criminals is to steal [...]
