    I keep trying to download Snap, but I can't find an APK file, only the BAR file. Does anyone have a link to download the app directly to my phone or do I have to download the BAR file on my computer?

    Snap is a BB10 app - there is no APK.

    Install Snap using Sachesi:
    1. Download the appropriate Sachesi version here: Sachesi
    2. Un-archive the exe file (currently a 7zip file)
    3. Put the exe file in a folder on it's own on your computer (it's a stand-alone program)
    4. Download Snap here: Snap Google Play Client
    5. Plug your device into your computer.
    6. Double click the Sachesi exe file to launch it. Enter your device password, if you use one.
    7. Click on the install tab.
    8. Drag/drop the Snap bar file into the window. You'll see a progress bar on your device and in Sachesi.
    9. When complete, unplug your device. You're done, enjoy.

    *** "Development Mode" is not required when using Sachesi.
    *** Unless you know what you're doing, do not mess with the other, advanced options within Sachesi!
    *** Settings > App Manager > Installing Apps > "Allow Apps from Other Sources to be Installed" must be enabled to install APK's.

    Some have had issues with the G-Play installation. I've found that updates through G-Play aren't as smooth as with Snap. And, as I haven't found any paid Android apps I need, Snap has served me well.

    It's really a matter of preference.

    Where do I download the Google Play Store? From Google, an APK, or Amazon?
