    Just casually surfing BlackBerry World apps section.. to check if there's anything new, I get surprised by a new flood of new map apps by "Golden Forge,Inc" like the 200,000 already available map apps aren't enough...

    I don't know what the solution is, but these need to be pulled into a different category... I've been scrolling for 10 minutes and I still didn't get to the end of them..

    It is horrible that "new apps" is always a bunch of crap maps or books. Great, if your a map and book freak it's the place to be.

    They need to improve the searching too.

    BlackBerry needs to separate the new arrivals into app categories. That way, I can filter out the million map apps to find apps that people actually put time and effort into, but aren't getting any exposure.

    It has been like this for some time, BlackBerry do not seem to be putting any effort in to improving BB World. When BB 10.2.1 is released, may be we will be able to get an Android solution to our BB problem.

    I remember the blog post when CB wrote about the S4bb thing before... but it's just getting pointless and annoying now, search for any specific place for maps like "Egypt maps" and you get like 20 apps from different "developers" and if you open them, they contain literally the same screeshots...

    And they ask for prices up for 9.99$.. I don't get how someone would make an app with completely no real effort, then ask for these ridiculous prices for them..

    Totally agree, something definitely needs to be done about these.

    I give up pretty much straight away when I see this.

    Categories in this section is a good start.

    They just need to add filter options and we're good to go. Bye-bye spam apps.

    10.2 is a good OS, but there are a few things that absolutely suck! The app store new arrivals is one - I now find most of my apps on CB.

    Other things in bad need of improvement are the word prediction and pesky appointments notifications (no snooze all or extended snooze time).

    Under apps and games there are a couple of tabs when you scroll down like best paid etc. There is one for new arrivals, the 4th tab iirc

    Filtering out developers should be sufficient, as only a few are responsible for these maps, and city guides.

    Interesting. I don't have that tab. I have :

    Staff picks
    Top apps
    Top games
    Top music
    Top movies
    Top tv
