Easily Filter Your BlackBerry 10 Hub by Unread, Flags, & More
One of the features I have been missing from my BlackBerry 9900 when switching to the BlackBerry Z10 was the ability to easily view only my unread messages. No other platform really has this since it is a challenge on touchscreens. That is why I was very happy that I did find a way to…
BlackBerry 10 Retains “Mark Prior Read” & “Delete Prior” Options
One of the first things I missed when I started using BlackBerry 10 was the ability to “Mark Prior Read” and “Delete Prior.” For some reason no other mobile OS has managed to add such a simple function and I thought we had lost it in BlackBerry 10. Thankfully I asked Annu Dawar @BlackBerry and…

One of the coolest and much needed features that BlackBerry added in BlackBerry 10 is the ability to save passwords in the browser. It simply prompts you after you login to a website if you wish to save the password for later use. Next time you browse to the page the username and password will…
How to Easily Take a Screenshot on BlackBerry 10
BlackBerry has thankfully maintained the really easy shortcut the PlayBook introduced for taking screenshots on BlackBerry 10. You simply hold down both the volume up and down buttons at the same time and you will hear a quick “snap” sound. The screenshots can then be found in the Camera folder on the phone (not the…
Easily Star or Archive Gmail Messages in BlackBerry 10
Here is another BlackBerry 10 tip I noticed recently.
