There are litteraly thousands of apps available that do an array of things but how many of these apps do you actually use? There maybe only a handful you probably use on a daily basis. IOS and Android are the top two operating systems that offer so many apps and now Blackberry 10 and Microsoft’s Windows 8 are fighting to be number 3. More than likely Blackberry 10 and Windows 8 phones will not have all the apps you would want. We have previously reported on Netflix and Instagram will not be apps for to Blackberry 10 OS. With these new operating systems its not enough users for developers to benefit from creating app that works on them.
@TatWza Well the only thing i wanted to add to that Blackberry 10 knows the lack of app that they have that’s why they put they option of side loading apps on the phone from the android market and it works great example i have the blackberry z10 and i have Intsagram on it and my friend have netflix i just don’t use it myself that much i got my sites for my movies are crackle that’s enough for me personally.
This article is way off base and clearly written by someone who has not used the new Z10. I have no problem with the amount of apps that are available, in fact I was quite impressed that they launched a brand new platform with more than 700,000 apps available. The best part is there are new apps everyday. Also, as the previous poster stated, you can easily side load any apps designed for Android and BB10 is one of the easiest platforms for developers to work with. BB10 is the smoothest Os I have ever used and at this point would never use any other platform. I think that BlackBerry has a good chance with having great success with this.
