  • Top 10 BlackBerry 10 Apps for Business

    This may just be due to the fact that I had lunch with IBB for Business blogger Luke this week; or maybe I've just got business apps on the brain because I've grabbed a couple of good ones for my Z10 this morning. Whatever the reason, I've been doing a bit of research on business apps lately, and I wanted to share ten of my newly discovered gems with you. If you happen to find yourself with enterprise on the brain after reading this and jamming on some of these apps, pay Luke a visit for more BlackBerry business goodness. Ready for the list? Great, let's go!


    1. Vault Password Manager by XLabz Technologies Pvt Ltd: If you spend any time online at work, you have passwords. If you have passwords, you know how frustrating it is to forget a password, so you end up writing them down, compromising your security in the process. Consider Vault your encrypted digital notepad of passwords that is far more secure and just as accessible.
    2. Business Cards for BlackBerry 10 by Saper-ek: How many times have you come home from an event with business cards from and could not remember why you needed to connect with them? Using the Business Cards app, you can scan them in and make notes, saving hours of guesswork.
    3. Hide Files for BlackBerry 10 by Runisoft Ltd.: Hide Files is perfect if your company uses one device for multiple people, or if you simply want to keep your data safe from snoops. This app allows you to hide photos, videos, documents, music and any other type of file in your SD Card or in your device's memory. Of course if you're using your own BlackBerry 10 device with BlackBerry Balance, you already have a pretty cool way of keeping your personal things personal.
    4. Find Near Me by XLabz Technologies Pvt Ltd: Here's a familiar situation for me: An important client is coming into the office and is staying for a working dinner. The problem is that you're unfamiliar with the fancy restaurant scene around the office, and this is a meal where you need to impress. Find Near Me is an app that helps you locate a variety of places – from Restaurants to Wi-Fi hotspots – near your location. Using the app's detailed information about the location, you are sure to find a place to impress your client and look like a hero at the office.
    5. A Day in Life by XLabz Technologies Pvt Ltd: Ever have a great idea, or think of something you just have to write down at that moment? There have been times I've been on the road and thought, "I have to remember to do this when I get home" so I BBM, text or email it to myself. A Day in Life allows you to jot down your free-form thoughts in a digital journal for later reference.
    6. SayIt by BachKhoa University: If you ever find yourself needing a personal assistant, organizer, encyclopedia, or a dictionary while on the go with your BlackBerry Z10, you are going to want SayIt. Offering all of these features plus a 25 language translator, SayIt is a veritable Swiss knife of usefulness. This app is part of the Built for BlackBerry program, and you can find a handy video demo right here.
    7. Stocks for BlackBerry 10 by Alex Garipian: Day traders, night traders, bulls and bears all will love this BlackBerry 10 app. True to its name, Stocks for BlackBerry 10 helps you track your stocks, monitor your portfolio when the market is open, and after hours trading after the markets close.
    8. NYTimes for BlackBerry10 by The New York Times: Even if I can't yet consider myself a native New Yorker(maybe a "Canadian port?") I can still keep up with the news there. This app syncs the news and give you limited access for free, with a small fee to open up the whole pizza pie.
    9. TV for BlackBerry 10 by Yaybe.tv Television TV and Video Tablet Apps: Keeping up with the news is an essential part of my job, and I appreciate the multitude of channels this app provides for me to watch. I can catch news reports from around the world with the TV app on my BlackBerry Z10 as well as use the PlayBook version to watch TV on a larger screen if I want.
    10. Print My Files by Runisoft Ltd.: Print My Files is a slick and easy way to print from your mobile device just as you would if you were sitting at your desk. You can also use PMF to connect directly to a Wi-Fi printer and print documents on your device right from your BlackBerry device.

    There you have it, 10 of the more useful apps I've seen hit BlackBerry World for business folks of all stripes. If you have any that you use or you think I missed, share them in the comments!

  • BlackBerry Introduces: BlackBerry Fan of the Month, April 2013

    If using both a phone and a tablet together is a hot tech trend this year, April's BlackBerry Fan of the Month is ON TREND.

    Meet Sergio – a lean, mean, BlackBerry PlayBook-ing-machine. Sergio knows how to work hard and play hard and he uses his BlackBerry PlayBook tablet to make the best of both worlds. In his personal life, Sergio's BlackBerry PlayBook helps him stay in touch with his loved ones – his wife, in particular (say it with us – 'awwww!')! And in his professional life as a successful business owner, Sergio can't live without his tablet. It allows him to remotely manage inventory for his robotic pool cleaning company and print invoices on demand for customers. The Evernote app on the BlackBerry PlayBook tablet is perfect for taking notes and pictures while on the job. And, best of all, he can use it as a phone whenever he needs to. Sergio is one of the original Super Users in the Spanish BlackBerry Support Community Forums. He is extremely helpful and passionate about the BlackBerry PlayBook with impressive stats in the community:

    • Total Posts: 3,704
    • Total Kudos: 215
    • Total Accepted Solutions: 107

    Like we said, lean, mean, BlackBerry-PlayBook-ing MACHINE. Ladies and gents, I present to you, our April FOTM, Sergio(@icemanswimmer):

      1. How many years have you been on Team BlackBerry?

    I have proudly been part of Team BlackBerry since 2010. Honestly, I have to tell you that it has been a great experience. I never imagined my passion for BlackBerry would lead me here to be part of FOTM.

      1. How many BlackBerry devices have you had in total? Could you list them all out for us?

    I have had four – BlackBerry Storm 9530, BlackBerry Bold 9700, BlackBerry PlayBook tablet (I really love this one) and now I’m getting a super sexy BlackBerry Z10!

      1. How many BlackBerry Messenger (BBM) contacts do you currently have?

    On my BBM, I only have a select group of people, 24 right now. But I’m sure BlackBerry 10 will put me back in touch with all those that I miss.

      1. What is your favorite BBM emoticon?

    Definitely the laughing one. Haha.

      1. What is the best BBM you ever received?

    One from a customer saying that the deal was closed in our favor, definitely the best!

      1. Sergio, if you could BBM your BlackBerry, what would you say? How do you think your BlackBerry would respond?

    Sincerely? Please don’t tell my wife, though. I would say, I love you and I can’t live without you.

    Of course the BlackBerry would answer: Me too!!

      1. Sergio, we know you own your own company, selling pool products. Tell us more about how and when you started this company!

    Sure, it’s a long story but I will try to be brief.
    My pool business started about six years ago, I never imagined that I would be doing this. Six years ago, I was selling VoiP solutions. One day my partner met some guys that were involved in the Robotic Pool Cleaning business. They showed him all the beautiful things that robots could do, it was awesome and a really great business opportunity in a market that was not existent in Mexico at the time.

    We weren't sure where to start, but, lucky for me, I'm a swimmer and I knew people that own swimming schools or are Coaches in Acapulco or Cuernavaca, so I used that network to start selling this technology and give the business a shot!

    But wait, the story doesn’t end there. Customers didn't just want the robots to clean their pools. That was just the beginning, later they wanted more from us – they wanted chemicals, equipment, accessories, services etc, so this business has been growing as a result. Now we have more customers than we could have expected and work on some of the main pools in Mexico City.

    I need to say that BlackBerry has been part of that story. These devices have been so useful for my business. Thank you guys.

      1. Sergio, how does BlackBerry keep you organized with your work? (Especially since you're one busy man!)

    Well, my BlackBerry and my BlackBerry PlayBook are really my main computing devices, but the BlackBerry PlayBook has sort of won me over because I can do so many things with it.

    On the PlayBook, when I’m not at the office I use remote access to check inventory or create invoices. Sometimes I also access email and Docs To Go using my BlackBerry PlayBook.

    I use Evernote on the PlayBook for updating the notes I take at each customer visit. This also involves taking pictures so I have a record of water clearness or turbidity, chemical parameters, etc. These notes can be shared immediately with the customers or my suppliers when there are product issues.

    Of course, presentations are part of this business, too. I edit my presentations on the PlayBook using an Office app. Sometimes I display these presentations on a LCD or LED TV and use my BlackBerry smartphone as my remote control with BlackBerry Bridge. It is so cool and it looks so profesional that customers are amazed each time I do this. In fact, when I finish the presentation, they often want to take a look at the BlackBerry PlayBook and play with the remote control feature. Haha.

    Check this, one of the coolest things I do on the PlayBook is placing calls through VoiP, this turns my tablet into a ‘phablet’ but also helps me reduce my phone costs as much as 40% on local calls and 80% on international calls. I do this when I’m at my customer’s facilities, coffee shops, restaurants or when I’m traveling. The phone function even works through the internet using a modem, but the voice quality isn't always the best.

    Of course, e-mail is one of the things I use most during the day. I probably split by time on e-mail between my two devices evenly.
    Getting access to web sites related to the business are part of every day tasks and I mainly do this on the PlayBook.

    Those are some of the areas in which BlackBerry helps me a lot.

      1. What did you think about the launch of BlackBerry 10? Did any announcement in particular stand out?

    More than seeing this as BlackBerry deserving another opportunity, I thought you guys did this once, why can't you do it again? BlackBerry 10 has all everything you need to succeed. I’m so sure of that. I believe!

    About announcements, yes, of course, there were some that stood out – those about the apps that customers could expect to see and use. There are so many! Congrats to your Developer Relations Team, they are doing a great job!

      1. And finally, we just have to ask: Are you prepared to handle the fame that comes with being our Fans of the Month?

    Hahaha, I hope to enjoy it! Bring it on!

  • BlackBerry 10 and the end of the "U-Turn" Button

    As more and more of my friends get their hands on a BlackBerry Z10, I find myself referring to an earlier Inside BlackBerry Blog post – "There's No Button like Home"- about the device's lack of a home button. Users migrating from a BlackBerry device or competitive devices needed more information on how using BlackBerry 10 Flow keeps you moving, and BlackBerry users in particular wondered how and why they would navigate apps without the much-adored "Back" or "U-Turn" button.

    uturnbutton

    Without belaboring the "how" part of using BlackBerry 10 Flow (explained in this video), I'd like to focus on why the U-turn button is no longer needed with BlackBerry 10. We frequently note that this function is due to the goal to "keep you moving forward" but what does that really mean?

    • It means that the user experience of your mobile operating system should adapt to you and not the other way around.
    • It means taking the human desire to reach higher and be more and packing it into a smartphone.
    • It means a smartphone that says "I agree with you, star-reacher. Let's go and be more."
    • It means knowing where you've been and how it impacts you, then using it to propel you beyond your expectations.
    • It means plunging fearlessly into apps and being able to peek into the correspondence that mean the most at any time, day or night.
    • It means BlackBerry 10 is more than a slogan or ad – it's a movement, and a movement forward.

    I hope this clears things up. If you have any questions about how BlackBerry 10 keeps you moving forward, shout them out in the comments.

  • BBM Video: Top 5 Things You Should Know

    [ YouTube link for mobile viewing ]

    Arguably, the most significant BlackBerry Messenger (BBM) innovation on BlackBerry 10 is the Video Chat feature. Built on multifaceted technology, BBM Video is intended to provide BlackBerry 10 users with a first-in-class video chat agent. As you start exploring BBM Video, keep these key points in mind to help optimize your BlackBerry 10 experience:

    1. Seamless transition between text and video. It's extremely easy to initiate a video chat with a BBM contact. When in a text-based BBM conversation, simply tap the video icon on the chat screen to start talking face-to-face. BAM!
    2. Screen Share. In addition to being able to make audio and video calls through BBM, you can share the screen of your BlackBerry 10 device while continuing your conversation. This allows you to chat in real time about a photo album, business document or website.
    3. High quality audio. BBM Video has stereo and wide-band audio technology. This means that two people can talk at the same time without canceling each other out.
    4. Cinematic experience. You can rotate your BlackBerry 10 device while BBM video chatting. This way, you can share you surrounding in portrait or landscape mode when conversing with a contact face-to-face over BBM.
    5. Front or rear-facing cameras. When in BBM Video, you switch between the front or rear-facing cameras on your BlackBerry 10 device. Which lens is more slimming (ha!) – you pick!

    Okay, now you can stop reading and start chatting. Let us know what you think about BBM Video in the comments below!
