Use “Bar Download” to download your apps from BlackBerry World

xsacha of Sachesi fame has just published an interesting new online service called Bar Download.

It allows you to download free apps from BlackBerry World straight from any browser.

  1. Browse BlackBerry World until you find the app you want to download
  2. Copy the address you see in the browser (URL field)
  3. Paste the address in the “Application ID” field on the Bar Download page
  4. Click Submit and you will be presented with a link
  5. Click on the link to download the file and make sure you rename it so that the extension is .bar. You browser will want to download it as a .txt or .zip file.

That’s it, you will now have a bar file which you can quickly install on all your devices via a tool such as Sachesi or DBBT.

A couple of important notes

  • The Authorization field has to be left empty for now, until xsacha finds a way for you to generate your own. That means you’re using his BBID to download apps.
  • You’re not allowed to redistribute the bar files that you download.
