Blackberry App world alternatives?

**Kakaroto777** · 02-13-2013, 10:52 AM

Hi all. I tried to find this answer in Google and in the forums without success. I am relatively new to Blackberry and I would like to know if you can get apps only on the Blackberry App World, or are there other alternatives now that Mobihand is no more. I see on the Android side that even Amazon has an app store, but I don't know if for Blackberry we only have one option now. Thanks.

I don't think there's really any alternatives anymore, especially since with BB10 and the PlayBook it's not even possible to directly install apps except from App World or by sideloading from your PC.

Thanks for the response. I was afraid of that.

Hi.. does any body know how to turn off the download limit when downloading using a non wifi connection? I need to download a to show but there's no wifi available. I have a 6 g data plan so I can afford to do this.

If you are using Z10 swipe down from top of app. Go to settings then network and data limits.

according to this information from the Blackberry website ( Application Distribution Services - BlackBerry Developer )
you have 3 alternatives to Blackberry world

I think it is very good to not being any alternative of Blackberry Appworld.

When you try to put your apps to Blackberry appworld, BB Team tests your apps for long time. It seems good I think

Lol, no. Most definitely and emphatically no. If there was one thing I could change about developing for BlackBerry, it would be the horrible awfulness of the majority of the review team.
There's some amazing people working in that department (like @Hearteh), but for the most part, they're beyond redemption.
