    Hey has anybody else noticed this?

    Use to be at Google Play store i click on the app, under the install button, Google Play store recognizes my Blackberry Q10 but says it is incompatible.

    Now it says it is compatible and recognizes that the app has been installed!

    I'm using Snap. Has anybody else noticed this change?

    It's because you're tapping into Google Play when you use Snap. You're inputting your username and password and essentially registering the device with Google Play. If you delete it from your registered devices list, it will go back to the old way.

    Sorry if I burst your bubble, you were probably thinking it was something magical like getting Google Play on BB10.

    BURN!! Ok I totally tried to install Google play and it opened the front page for a second and that's all she wrote. I use aptoid now. It's amazing.

    ha. so i can register my device, but can't actually get GSF. Looks like we don't need Play, we just need GSF.

    Bla1ze, what about getting an Android section in BB World? Are you for or against that?
