[world traveler and former ceo]

The first of the Big App announcments . more to come! .. gonna be a big month!!

[markypro85]

sweet been using the andriod version and it doesn't update my contacts

[JAGWIRE]

Im very happy with this!!!
I had WhatsApp on my 9810 and it was great because i finally was able to talk to my non BB friends. Well there werent REAL friends then didnt even have a BlackBerry LOL LOL. Does anyone know if the WhatsApp for Z10 is going to have a vid-chat option? Right now Face Flow that was suppose to be a big thing sucks because its not even in Apple's store. So getting a replacement for that would be greatly prefered.

No, WhatsApp does not have video chat. FaceFlow is currently writing the apps for both iOS and Android.

I like the OpenWhatsApp too. But a real Hub integration would be nice (an own section in the hub like Twitter). And no need to be stay in the background.

I don't know much about the ecosystem. But is it technical possible for an app like WA to be completely closed and still run in the background somehow (push) and to be integrated with an own section in the hub?

[Daveensannie]

Thats awsome news !

[EauRouge]

great way to a kick off a month of app announcements!

[lawguyman]

Less announcing.

Michael Clewley tweeted that a lot of major BlackBerry updates will be released by the end of next week

[Nabooy]

So if WhatsApp will be aimed to be released by next week, what app are we expected to see this week then?

The Twitter for BlackBerry and LinkedIn apps were this weeks treat it seems.

[Nabooy]

No I mean the big BB app that people were talking about. I didn't mean about the updates or anything unless I'm being confused here.

[talal55]

Bad news for some !! They won't be able to complain much

[Cap_172R]

[ErinnM]

That's WhatsApp. It was delayed a week from the original teaser. BB said there would be one high-profile new app released and updates to 2 other apps. Then they said "Sorry, the big app was delayed to get tweaks/improvements, we gave you the 2 updates though." (Twitter and LinkedIn)
