Install or Not
I actually was using this app on a full touch screen BlackBerry. Yes, you got me , it’s Torch 9860 with which I spent my last week. I found this app decent. It notifies on rain, though snow was not here in New Delhi. One of the USP of any BlackBerry application is that it should be connected with the BlackBerry Messenger, so that the users can share the updates automatically, and this itself becomes a USP for BlackBerry smart phones. So any of you planing for developing any BlackBerry application make sure you connect with BBM. This application is too connected with BBM and share the updates on the user’s request. This is perfect for a desktop clock if you want else a nice decent lock screen to have on a BlackBerry. Download and tell us your experience and suggest others as well to install or not. The rest, I’ll leave to you.
The application is supported by BB OS 6.0 and higher and is available for download from BlackBerry App World
