No app in App World?

Greetings,
I went to download the spoofAPP by going to its mobile site. I thought it would redirect me to BlackBerry App World, but instead it offered a direct download from it's own site.
I canceled the download and tried to download it from BlackBerry App World (my belief is that if I download all apps from App World, it will make things easier later if I switch phones). However, I couldn't find spoofAPP in App World. I thought all apps that were compatible were BlackBerry were also available in the App World. Is this not the case?
Thanks,
Shane.

Hello,
No, it is not the case. AppWorld contains apps that the developers have registered with RIM (for which they pay fees). But, developers can have apps for BBs that are completely outside of AW.
Good luck!

Apps on BlackBerry World for BlackBerry Z10

Hi BlackBerry
I'm very impressed with the new BlackBerry Z10 device with its new features, display resolution, keyboard typing and gestures, but I have a big issue with the Apps on BlackBerry world.
Still BlackBerry World is missing lots and lots of popular apps that are widely used and are currently available on Apple AppStore & Android Google Play. I know that you are working on it, and it is hard for now to compete with Apple & Android appstores, but at least there is a punch of apps that are mostly common worldwide, especailly the social networking and voip calling apps which have to be launched officially on BlackBerry world as soon as possible.
In addition, I'd like to draw your attention that the Facbook app (which is currently integrated with BB 10) is an older version of Facebook than the currently available one for Android & iOS devices (one big difference is that the current facebook app version for Android & iOS devices include the "Share" feature for my feeds and stories, while the facebook app on BB 10 still does not include that feature). I don't know about twitter and linkedin, as I didn't check yet, but at least pleasue ensure with their developers that those native integrated apps are updated to their latest versions to provide BlackBerry users the same experience that Android & iOS users are having.
Also, about apps, there are many apps developed by Google (like youtube, Google Maps & Navigation, Google +, Google Current ...etc) which are not yet available on BlackBerry world (The Youtube app on BB 10 is just a shortcut to the internet broweser and not a fullt fledged Youtube App). Having Google apps on BlackBerry world will also give a big push to the users base for BB 10 (especially the Google Maps & Navigation, which are ranked and considered the best mapping database and app worldwide). I know that Google have to develop such apps from their side (as the same for other developers), but I hope that BlackBerry should give this issue its ultimae priority, as I think that the major drawback (if I can name it so) for BB 10 to earn a significant market share worldwide is the absence of many popular and widely used apps on the BlackBerry World as compared with Apple App Store and Android Google Play.
I know that BB 10 and its OS is just the begining, and that BlackBerry have more to provide to us from the apps side and other sides as well, so keep moving and hope to see the positive results soon.

Hi ahmed_mh1,
Blackberry has certainly put in a concerted effort to woo app developers of all types, big names and small alike. It by far the best effort that I have ever seen from them in this regard.. Unfortunately no matter the effort by them it will always come down to numbers for the big guys. If they aren't sure there will be a ROI on the investment of developing they won't put the resources into it.
This can be seen with the Facebook app you mentioned, it is a great example because it wasn't developed by Facebook... Blackberry ended up doing it for them. I'm sure that we have all noticed that Blackberry has been busy working on other areas of the phone, and that they have lots more work that we would all like to see done.
Would you rather have better notification granularity, or a better Facebook app?
If all of the million + z10 use re would all petition Facebook for a better FB built app, then we would have a much better chance of seeing the dream FB app that we desire.
Of course we all know about the rumours that FB wants to have their own phone.. so maybe conflict of interest has played into the game...?
#GetWithBB10!!! As Kevin O'Leary says.. it is the best!

Can't find an app on Blackberry World yet? Tweet the developer and ask when they will #GetWithBB10 !!

Unable to download/update apps, lost App World from BB9780 and unable to download App World again

Hi, I see posts about this subject but none have helped me so far. I seem to have accumulated 3 issues
Since a couple of weeks I am unable to download apps from the app world or update apps from the app world.
1. unable to download / update apps from App World
The progress bar of the download progresses some and the it hoves me the error "There was a problem during installation, please try again".
2. While trying to fix this issue 1, the App World icon has disappeared from my BB9780. On the desktop software I see that the App World stll shows as installed on my device (version 3.1.1.121). a search on my device shows nothing though.
3. I try to fix the issue 2 by reinstalling the App World. Everything goes well untill the language selection. Final message is whether I want to replace version 3.1.1.121 with version 3.1.1.121? When continuing I receive the error "Download failed". Detailed error mesage: "909 Application authentication failure".
Please help me how to fix this. I have tried:
-battery pulls
-security wipes
-time zone synch
nothing seems to help.
Thanks in advance. Rob

Hi, jimac.1729.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I understand that you are unable to download or update an App. Sometimes simply forcing all apps to close and restarting the device can resolve this issue. Also, try going through the steps outlined below.
Force an app to close in iOS
Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time.
Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update(iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking Check for Update on your device's Summary page.
Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check the user guide for your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.

Unable to find Mosip App in Blackberry world

Hi...
Am unable to find MoSIP app in Blackberry world. But when i search in my PC i can find the same. Please help how to download the same.

Hello,
App compatibility is a choice by the app developer. The on-device BBWorld is designed to only show you those apps where the developer has chosen to support your specific device model and OS level. Given what you describe, I would deduce that the developer has not chosen to support yours. You can see what platforms they have chosen to support via your PC in BBWorld, when not logged into your BBID...search for the app and there will be drop down menus listing the BB models and OS levels the developer has chosen to support. The place to make your request, therefore, is to the app developer...plead with them to port their app to your device model and OS level.
Good luck!

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
I recommend that you attempt to boot into Safe Mode:
KB17877 How to start a BlackBerry smartphone in Safe Mode
It may take you multiple attempts to get the ESC key sequence (press/release/hold) correct, so be patient. When successfully into Safe Mode, attempt to remove that app.
Good luck and let us know!

Mobile Twitter site, NOT Twitter App from app world.

How do I log out of Twitter mobile site on my Blackberry Curve 8520? It's NOT the App
How do i log out of Twitter mobiel site on my BB Curve 8520? It's NOT the Twitter App from App world. I have the app and can log out on it but on when I use the mobile internet, I can't seem to find the log out button or log out at all. When I scroll down to the bottom there is no option to log out there

I'm having the same issue. It's defnitely not the phone. I used another account to log in and it worked perfectly fine. I think it is facebook trying to change something or maybe something is wrong with one of our settings? I dislike the facebook application.

App store app problems

I am trying to download App Store App on I pad but get message that web site not available day after day. Can you suggest a solution?

The company needs to erase this Mac and reinstall the original version of OS X that came with the Mac. Then the company should create a company Apple ID which the company controls with which to set up this Mac. You should be careful of associating your personal Apple ID with a company owned Mac.

App Store app nearly unusable on iPad 3 and iPhone 4 with iOS 6

Thankfully I do not have any WiFi troubles with iOS 6 but I am facing another problem. iOS 6 offers that revamped App Store app which looks nice to me on my iPad 3 and iPhone 4, both using iOS 6. But it is nearly impossible to use that App Store app. I am quite often moving. apps onto and. off my devices and if possible I am doing it without using the USB connection to my mac, I like to use WiFi.
I have to admit that I am owning more than 3.000 different apps by now. It always took some time to het those apps listed in iTunes on my Mac, in iOS 5 it also was no high speed listing. but at least it worked. Now after changing to iOS 6 the simple listing takes much more time. When changing the lsting type from "actual" to "by name" it even takes more time (and why is it still not possible to set the prefered view type within some preferences option?). When the view type finally has changed scrolling, detail look onto selected applications and the overall handling of this lsting is awfully slow.
But the really annoying thing is that I can not scroll further than letter "D" or "E" - the App Store app constantly crashes (but remains active in the taskbar). You can imagine that this behaviour takes even more time on a iPhone 4.....!
Does anybody in here face the same troubles?

P.S. I solved the problem now and I'm only left with "installing..." status. Here's how got rid of that "waiting..." status:
1) Open iTunes with your device connected to the laptop or pc.
2) On the left sidebar, press "Apps".
3) Then on the lower right, you'll see like in my case, "30 (this varies on the number of apps available for updates) Updates Available".
4) Click on the desired app you want to update.
5) Lastly, after updating, press the "sync" button.
It worked, though my apps are currently stuck on "installing..." status. I don't know if this'll work in your case, but there's no harm in trying the procedure, right?

How do I stop the Atomic Browser on my iPod Touch from allowing websites to automatically load my App Store app?

I have the Bejeweled Blitz app (for Facebooik) on my iPod Touch 4th gen. If I want to find gems (special items used in Bejeweled) I have to use a browser (I'm using Atomic Browser) on my iPod so I can grab gems from Facebook's news feed. What's SUPPOSE to happen is this:
I set Atomic on my iPod to identify itself as Safari mobile (because the Bejeweled Blitz app on the iPod only recognizes Safari).
I load my Bejeweled app on my ipod.
I log into Facebook with Atomic and scan the news feed for gems and click on a gem.Atomic opens a new tab and tries to load the link.My iPod then switches from Atomic to my Bejeweled Blitz app and the gem appears in my game.
When I'm done with the game, I double click Home and swtich back to Atomic.
I close the new tab and search the news feed for the next gem.
HOWEVER, the problem is this: About two-thirds of the time, when Atomic opens a new tab to load the link, instead of my iPod swtching to Bejeweled Blitz, it opens my App Store app and takes me to the Bejeweled Blitz app download page. Sometimes the problem occurs when I'm done with my game: i.e., when I go back to the browser, the iPod swtiches from Atomic and loads the App Store app before I even have a chance to close the tab. It's a big pain in the neck because it takes a long time for the App Store app to load and when I go back to my Bejeweled Bltz app, it acts like it got dumped from memory and has to restart.
So... How do I make it so that my App Store app ONLY loads when I personally select the app myself?

Apple the best
H.M

The iPad 1 can't run the newer operating systems. It'd be like trying to play a bluray disc in your 6 year old dvd player....it simply lacks the hardware to make the software run.
No suggestion about the camera, but given that Apple's attitude seems to be to focus more on the more mobile devices for photography (the iPhone and Touch cameras got features, the iPad and mini didn't), that is highly unlikely. You can tell Apple what you want, but you'd probably be money ahead to get a digital camera.
as to the photos, anything put on via iTunes has to come off via iTunes.Your main alternative would be to look for photo apps that offer file exchange that may give you more functionality.
