    Would it be possible for Crackberry to host and maintain - somewhere central on the site and easy-to-find - a listing of APKs that work on BB10 and also those that do not? The reason for the latter seems to be (?) that BB10 is frozen at jellybean and the world has moved on to kitkat. Here is a short list to start. By the way these are def not from Amazon Store or Google Play or even BB World but taken as straight downloads from e.g. apk4fun, apk20, apkpure, apk-dl, apkmirror and others. (Incidentally I find apk4blackberry completely un-navigable: pity.)
    All these are CURRENT (i.e. latest) as far as I know and work just fine:
    audible-2.4.0
    british.airways-4.2
    bbc.iplayer-4.17.0
    bbc.iplayerradio-2.6.2 (but note: you can't download podcasts)
    bbc.mediaplayer-3.1.10 (horrible numbering: 1< 6 but this version supersedes 3.1.6)
    bbc.music-1.0.2
    bbc.news-3.7.1.9
    chrome-49.0.2623.105
    firefox-45.0.1
    glympse-3.04
    google.maps-9.22.2 (I have not tried 9.23.0)
    kindle-4.22.0.154
    netflix-3.16.1 (but 4.3.1 does NOT work)
    ringgo-5.1
    skype-6.28.0.510
    tumblr-5.4.1.00
    webex-9.0.0
    wikipedia-2.1.143
    As well as netflix-4.3.1 failing, I cannot find a working APK for any of:
    google.streetview
    here.maps
    blinkbox
    all4
    amazon.video
    truecrypt
    It would be great to have some kind of evolving warranted list easily available at Crackberry.

    What is the sense in having such a list? Guess it's easier to just download the app from Play Store and see if it works.

    To save "seeing if it works" which is a complete pain.

    The sense is to make life easier for those of us that bought into the lies of Blackberry.

    Why BlackBerry? Because I can!

    If you don't like the lies, sell your Blackberry and buy an Android or iOS device.

    Life is too short to be salty about a cell phone. Move on with your life.

    With reference to the top item in this thread, chrome-49 seems not to permit Erase Browser History. Tried all possible trajectories and there are several, but it just kept coming back. Regressed to 42.0.2311. All fine.
    1 Incidentally such regressions were impossible (error msgs wrongly asserting later version still installed) until I upgraded Android Runtime recently. Forgotten how I did that. Can anybody point me to a link please?
    2 Still on top item, can anybody state a working version of Here Maps or TrueCrypt for BB10? Thank you!
