    So turned on my passport silver edition to update the app world as everyone else is doing....only to discover a 85mb update to blackberry 10 applications.

    See pic attached.

    What's this about? Good news, right? Or are they limiting functions?

    Your OS is up-to-date now so to speak (10.3.3.2137). It seems that you PP was OFF for quite a while.

    Yeah, for 1 week I had the phone off. Due to covid...

    Is this the very latest OS for this device?

    Is there a change log?

    Anything to do with also updating the android runtime in blackberry world?

    Thank you for your attention!

    Well... it's a 2-year old update, and as far as I remember it contains few bugfixes and that's it. It was released after they claimed about EOL by the end of 2019. You'd rather google it for 10.3.3.2137 release notes

    This is the exact size of the Android Runtime. Any chance you fooled around with that some time in the past?

    In any event, your device is just refreshing apps you either reverted or deleted.

    You have the latest. OS 10.3.3.3216, SR 10.3.3.2137.

    The Android Runtime "patch" in BlackBerry World was meant for a much older version of the OS. This is what your current update is "fixing" for you.

    I see! yeah, while in the app world I saw an android run time app or update - installed it and rebooted. then thought I'd also check for software updates in settings - and this happened.

    I do remember reading something about only getting the android run time app IF my android apps were crashing?

    I figured I'd 'update' it anyway.

    at least it produced a lil excitement for me and the silver edition.

    The BlackBerry World patch was specifically for OS 10.3.2.2876. It fixed a bug whereby you couldn't fully delete Android apps.
