    I don't know. Chrome Browser with the App Manager add-on can sideload on Win computers.

    Seems doubtful but if you manage to get it to work let us know.

    Okay, my post above was a bit silly, and maybe I'm wrong, but I'm guessing you'll need to root your iPad, and buy a usb drive connector to get this to work, and even then it might not (you may need to install a different os).

    In short, I suspect you're probably better off just doing without the app.

    Next time, buy a Windows tablet.

    No it's impossible. I don't think it's even possible with a Mac.

    If you can run Chrome browser, you can sideload. All that's needed is the Playbook App Manager from the Play store and the IP address of the BlackBerry, and a way to drag and drop the apps into the browser window.

    Kind of what I suggested above and I would love if the OP carried out the experiment. Does the Chrome (google) browser run on an ipad (apple)?

    Chrome runs on iOS, the bigger question is can a downloaded file be sideloaded via drag-and-drop?

    I have a Mac and I can side load without any problems. I use terminal. Here's how I do it How to load Android apps on your BlackBerry PlayBook from your Mac | CrackBerry.com

    The instructions are for the Playbook but it works the same for a BB 10 device.

    With Chrome and the App Manager, I've used wifi to drag/drop to install bar files.
