5 Must-Have Free Social Apps for BlackBerry

Written by Julianus Yu

BlackBerry, the enterprise phone, is often dismissed as the “other” brand within social media communities. But worldwide, BlackBerrys still outnumber iPhones, and RIM has made major strides in recent years to become more social-friendly. I use my BlackBerry not only for business, but for most of my social media. But which apps should you use? There are many social media-related apps available for BlackBerry, and it can be tough to pick only the good ones. To cut through the others, here are top 5 social apps for BlackBerry.

1. BlackBerry Messenger
The app is basically a free SMS-alternative, to and from any point on the globe. Additional features in the newest version include picture-sharing, group creation, voice notes, and a way to find people based on name or barcode (each device has its own). If you’re like me — a modern nomad — or you have friends and family spread out across the world, BlackBerry Messenger is a must-have.

2. Facebook
Features of the Facebook BlackBerry app include adding updates, mobile picture uploads, the ability to like and comment on posts, search for people, add new friends, and flip through the profiles of your old ones. If you’re the type of person that updates your status at every red light, well, you probably need help. But you also probably need this app.

3. UberTwitter
UberTwitter is the best and most-used Twitter (Twitter) client for BlackBerry. UberTwitter basically gives you all the Twitter functionality you’d expect, including writing updates, viewing profiles, replying to or DMing specific users, and viewing your own timeline.

4. Evernote
Features of the Evernote BlackBerry app include the ability to create text, photo, and voice notes, search and find notes you’ve already made, and tag and organize your notes in a system that works best for you.

5. Pandora
Pandora is still the cream of the crop of online radio clients, and the BlackBerry app puts it right in your palm. Pandora for BlackBerry allows you to access and manage your stations, and create new ones from root songs or artists.

All of the application is Free for using, that make the BlackBerry become more popular for social mobile communication.
