BlackBerry 10: new apps and
features
Introducing the reinvented BlackBerry – an intelligent and intuitive experience that constantly adapts to your needs.
Designed around three main views – your messages, your running apps, and all apps – BlackBerry 10 OS allows you to
effortlessly flow between tasks and applications with quick and simple gestures.
BlackBerry Hub
BlackBerry Hub gathers all of your messages and notifications into one convenient location. Receive and respond to email,
text messages, social networking messages, BBM chats, and instant messages. With a single swipe from any screen, you
can peek at your notifications, peek further into BlackBerry Hub to see your messages, or peek at your upcoming meetings
and events. You can easily filter the types of messages that appear.
BlackBerry Keyboard
Your BlackBerry device is designed to learn what you tend to say and where in a sentence you tend to say it. Your device
uses this information to try to predict what word you might type next. When you pause your typing, suggested words are
displayed above the BlackBerry Keyboard. Simply tap the word you would like to use.
You can use individual keys to quickly do tasks such as reply to a message, go to a specific calendar view, or zoom in on a
webpage. You can do many tasks quickly by simply typing from the home screen. For example, you can send an email
message or post a tweet.
BBM Video with Screen Share
Have face-to-face video conversations with your BBM contacts over HSPA+, 4G LTE and Wi-Fi networks. Start BBM Video
from the Phone or the Contacts app, or switch from a BBM chat to a BBM Video conversation, by simply tapping an icon.
You can even share your screen with your contact by tapping an icon, and show your photos or presentations while you
continue talking.
Camera and Time Shift mode
Your BlackBerry device has front and rear cameras for taking high resolution pictures and recording HD videos. You can
open the camera from the home screen, and take a picture or record a video quickly by tapping anywhere on the screen.
Time Shift mode captures several milliseconds before and after your picture, so you can pinpoint the best frames to create
the perfect shot.

BlackBerry Story Maker
BlackBerry Story Maker allows you to combine your pictures, videos, and music into a stunning HD movie that you can view
later and quickly share with others. You can select a song for background music, add intro titles and end credits, and apply
themes.
BlackBerry Remember
A combination of memos and tasks, BlackBerry Remember helps you organize your interests, ideas, and projects. You can
group related photos, lists, messages, emails, and links. Generate tasks from email messages and turn your content into
actions from anywhere on your device.
Contacts
The Contacts app contains details about the contact, updates and company news from the contact’s social network, and
events that you and the contact have in common. You can quickly filter your contacts by using the account type (for
example, you can choose to view only BBM contacts). You can also create favorites and use photos from social networking
accounts to represent contacts.
Calendar
The Calendar app is integrated with the BlackBerry Hub, the Contacts app, and other apps and accounts. You can filter
your calendar events for each of your social networking accounts. At a glance, you can view the people you are meeting on
a particular day. The Calendar even suggests participants and locations, based on previous email and meetings.
BlackBerry Browser
The new BlackBerry Browser is powerful, responsive, and super-fast. When you're browsing and you find something you
want to share, you can post it to a social network with just a couple of gestures. You can also view webpages in Reader
mode to remove distracting clutter.
Share, stream, or display your media files
With a couple of quick taps from within your apps, you can easily share your music, pictures, videos, documents,
webpages, and contacts with others over email, BBM, a Bluetooth connection, NFC, social networking accounts, and
more. You can also stream your media to supported DLNA Certified devices such as computers, TVs, or other home
entertainment equipment, or use an HDMI cable to display your media files on a TV or computer.

Picture editing
You can edit pictures directly on your device. Crop and rotate the picture, reduce red-eye, or apply a variety of
enhancements and artistic styles.
Video editing
You can edit videos directly on your device. Change the length of the video, rotate the image, and make enhancements
such as brightness and color.
Search
You can search your entire device for files, settings, apps, help, and more. Either type your search term, or say it, from the
home screen or from within an app. You can narrow your search to include only specific apps, or extend your search to
include Internet sources.
Voice Control
The Voice Control app can make multitasking easier. You can speak your commands and perform a variety of actions
virtually hands-free. Use the Voice Control app to send messages, make calls, book meetings, search the Internet, post
tweets, and more. Open the Voice Control app by pressing and holding the mute button on the side of the device, or from
the keyboard by tapping and holding the microphone icon.
BlackBerry World
Discovering great apps is easier than ever with app recommendations based on similar purchases. You can choose an app,
then share it – to social sites with a couple of gestures from within the app, or to a friend’s NFC-enabled BlackBerry device
with a tap – it’s quick and simple. BlackBerry World features a unified storefront for apps, games, themes, music, and
videos, and parental controls that let you hide content that you don't want children to access.
NFC and Smart Tags
Near Field Communication (NFC) is a short-range wireless technology that's designed for transferring data quickly.
BlackBerry Tag uses NFC technology to exchange files (including pictures, music, contact info, and even webpages)
between your BlackBerry device and other NFC-enabled devices simply by tapping the back of your devices together. You
can also use NFC on your device to pay for items, and to create and store Smart Tags containing URLs, phone numbers,
and more that you can share with others.

If you can't update your version of BBM, in BBM, press the key > Options > Back Up. Select a backup option.
What if I have contacts on my SIM card?
Your BlackBerry 10 device uses a micro SIM card. To get a micro SIM card for your device, contact your service provider.
If you saved contacts to your old SIM card, to make sure those contacts aren't lost, you might need to copy those contacts
to your old device before you back up your device data.
Tip: To copy contacts from your SIM card to your old device's built-in media storage, in your contact list on your old device,
press the key > SIM Phone Book. Press the key > Copy All To Contacts.

After you switch devices
Restoring your BBM contacts and groups
The first time that you open BBM, you are prompted for your BlackBerry ID. If you have used BBM before, consider the
following:
• If you are switching BlackBerry devices, you can use the Device Switch feature in BlackBerry Link on your computer or
on a device running BlackBerry 7 or later to transfer your device data, including your contacts and groups from BBM
6.2 or earlier, to a new device.
• If you previously associated BBM with your BlackBerry ID (for example, on your current device), you can sign in with the
same BlackBerry ID to restore your BBM data over the wireless network.
After setting up BBM, your contacts, profile, and groups are automatically backed up over the wireless network based on
your BlackBerry ID. It's still a good idea to regularly save a backup file for your device on a computer using BlackBerry Link
in case your device is lost, stolen, or corrupted.

Tips: Choosing a connection
Your BlackBerry device is capable of a wide range of connections, to increase what you can do with your device and how it
interacts with other devices. Take a look at the list of connections to learn about the different types of connections, some
tips for when to use each connection, and maybe learn a few things you didn't know you could do.
Network connections
Mobile network
A mobile network connection allows your BlackBerry device to make calls and, if you have a data plan, use data
services such as Internet browsing. In some locations, such as in a hospital or on an airplane, you need to turn off
your mobile network connection, but usually you can just leave your mobile network connection on.
Wi-Fi
A Wi-Fi network connection is another way to get data services on your device, but unlike using the mobile network,
using Wi-Fi doesn't add charges to your data plan. Your device is designed to try to use saved Wi-Fi networks before
it tries to use the mobile network for basic data functions such as using the Internet or downloading apps. You can
leave Wi-Fi on so that as soon as you're in range of a saved Wi-Fi network, your device connects to it automatically,
but remember that if you leave Wi-Fi on all the time your battery can drain faster.
Connections between devices
USB
You can use a USB cable to create a two-way connection between your BlackBerry device and your computer.
When you connect your device to your computer using a USB cable, your device appears on your computer as a
removable storage device. Depending on the functionality of your computer, you can usually use a USB connection
to drag files between your computer and your device.
Bluetooth technology
Bluetooth wireless technology allows you to create a direct connection between your BlackBerry device and another
Bluetooth enabled device. Although you can transfer files over a Bluetooth connection, because of its ability to
stream content, Bluetooth connections are more commonly used for actions such as playing the music on your
BlackBerry device through a separate speaker or making calls on a headset that is using your BlackBerry device's
mobile network connection.
NFC
NFC is a short-range wireless technology that's used for quickly creating connections between your BlackBerry
device and other NFC-enabled devices or NFC tags. With NFC you don't need to enter pairing information to make a

connection, so it's useful for on-the-go actions such as transferring contact cards with people you meet, or grabbing
information from a poster that contains an NFC tag. Depending on your wireless service provider and the
applications you have installed on your BlackBerry device, NFC can also be used to turn your device into a digital
wallet to allow you to do things such as make payments with your BlackBerry device.
Connect your device to an HDMI display
1. Using an HDMI cable, connect your BlackBerry device to an HDMI display.
2. Your device automatically detects the resolution of the HDMI display that your device is connected to. However, if you
need to change the resolution, on the home screen, swipe down from the top of the screen. Tap Settings >
Display. In the HDMI Display Mode drop-down list, tap the display mode that you want to use.
Turn on airplane mode
In some places, such as on an airplane or in a hospital, you need to turn off all the connections on your BlackBerry device.
Airplane mode lets you quickly turn off your connections and, when you're done using airplane mode, turning off airplane
mode restores the connections that were previously turned on.
1. On the home screen, swipe down from the top of the screen.
2. Tap Settings > Network Connections.
3. Set the Airplane Mode switch to On.

Connect to a Wi-Fi network
When you connect to a Wi-Fi network, your BlackBerry device saves the network information. The next time you're within
range of the saved Wi-Fi network, if Wi-Fi is turned on, your device connects automatically.
1. On the home screen, swipe down from the top of the screen.
2. Tap Wi-Fi.
3. If the Wi-Fi switch is Off, set it to On.
4. Tap a network.
5. If the Wi-Fi Protected Setup screen appears, do one of the following:
• If you have access to the Wi-Fi router and it uses Wi-Fi Protected Setup, tap Press WPS Button on Router or Enter
PIN into router. Complete the instructions on the device screen.
• If you don't have access to the Wi-Fi router or it doesn't use Wi-Fi Protected Setup, tap Don't use WPS.
6. If necessary, enter the username or password for the Wi-Fi network.
7. Tap Connect.
Tip: The next time you want to connect to a saved Wi-Fi network, if the network is within range of your device, swipe down

manually.
1. On the home screen, swipe down from the top of the screen.
2. Tap Wi-Fi > .
3. In the SSID field, enter the name of the network.
4. Select the network's security type and specify any additional information. For what information you should specify, you
can speak to your administrator or the person who manages the Wi-Fi network.
5. Tap Connect.
I can't connect to a Wi-Fi network
Start by checking for these basic issues:
• Check that you turned on the connection to the Wi-Fi network.
User Guide
RIM Strictly Confidential Connections
43
• Check that you're in a Wi-Fi coverage area. If you're connecting to a home network, see if other wireless devices are
able to connect. If other devices can't connect you might need to reset your router. If you're connecting to a work Wi-Fi
network or a hotspot, talk to your administrator or an employee at the hotspot.
• Your connection might have timed out. Try connecting again.
• If the Wi-Fi network that you want doesn't appear on the Wi-Fi settings screen, it might be hidden. If you know the
network name, try connecting to the Wi-Fi network manually.
• Check that Mobile Hotspot mode is off. If Mobile Hotspot mode is on, your device can't connect to a Wi-Fi network.
If none of the suggestions above solve your connection issue, try these more advanced troubleshooting options:
• Check that the time on your BlackBerry device is synchronized with the network time. If the times are different, it could
prevent your device from connecting (for example, if connecting to the network requires you to have a certificate on
your device, and the certificate has an expiration date).
• If you switched Wi-Fi networks manually, try switching to another Wi-Fi network.
• If your email account is a work account, your device might prevent connections to certain wireless access points. For
more information, contact your administrator.
Still not connected? OK, try the following:
• Check that the settings for the Wi-Fi network are correct. To find out which settings to use, for a home network, refer to
the information that came with your router; for a work Wi-Fi network, talk to your administrator; for a public hotspot,
refer to any information provided for the hotspot or talk to an employee at the hotspot who might have details about
how to connect.
• If you use the Press WPS Button on Router setting in Wi-Fi Protected Setup, check that the Wi-Fi router uses Wi-Fi
Protected Setup, and that it is set to send its profile. Verify that another device is not also attempting to connect at the
same time, and that not more than one Wi-Fi router within range is set to send its profile. For more information, see the
information that came with your router.
• If you use PEAP, EAP-TLS, EAP-FAST, or EAP-TTLS to connect to a Wi-Fi network, check that you installed the root
certificate for the certificate authority server that created the certificate for the authentication server. The root
certificate must be installed on your device before you can connect to the network. For more information, talk to your
administrator.
• If you use EAP-TLS to connect to a Wi-Fi network, check that you installed your authentication certificate on your
device. The authentication certificate must be installed on your device before you can connect to the network. For
more information, talk to your administrator.
• If you need to contact a support representative, you can access diagnostic information by tapping Advanced on the Wi-
Fi settings screen. To copy the log information to send to your support representative, in the Diagnostic Information
drop-down list, tap Logs. Tap Copy Logs.

• If the device doesn't appear in the Devices list and you can't connect by making it discoverable, you might need to
initiate pairing from the device. On your BlackBerry device, in the Discoverable drop-down list, tap On or 2 Minutes
and then start the pairing process according to the documentation that came with the device.
Your devices are now ready to share and communicate over the Bluetooth connection. Depending on the device you paired
with, your devices are either connected or ready to connect when you initiate a Bluetooth related action such as sharing a
file.
What is NFC?
NFC is a short-range wireless technology that's designed for easily sharing content and information without having to use
pairing information.
Depending on the applications you have installed on your device and the NFC compatibility of other devices, there can be
many interesting ways to use NFC. Here are a few possibilities:

convenient location. In the BlackBerry Hub, you can receive and respond to email, text messages, or BBM chats all in the
same place, see and respond to notifications from your social networking accounts, glance at your upcoming events, and
more.
Email
You can add practically any existing email account to your device—both work and web-based email.
Text messages (SMS/MMS)
If text messaging is a part of your wireless service plan, you can find and respond to your text messages in the
BlackBerry Hub.
Social networking
If you add a Facebook account to your device, you can receive and respond to notifications, update your status, and
send Facebook messages all from the BlackBerry Hub. If you add a Twitter account, you can compose tweets, keep
on top of your mentions, and send direct messages. And if you add a LinkedIn account, you can accept invitations
to connect with business contacts, send messages to your connections, and update your LinkedIn status.
BBM and instant messaging
After you add instant messaging apps to your device, you can access your chats through the BlackBerry Hub.
Calls and voice mail
The BlackBerry Hub also shows you the calls that you made and received, including any missed calls and voice mail
messages.
Upcoming events
Without leaving the BlackBerry Hub, you can peek at upcoming meetings, events, and—if you add your Facebook
account—friends' birthdays.
Notifications
The BlackBerry Hub also collects your notifications about new PIN messages, time zone changes, software
updates, third-party apps, and more. Your service provider might send you SIM Toolkit notifications that appear in
the BlackBerry Hub. Tapping on these notifications launches the SIM Toolkit app.

See the world through BBM
Share and be seen with BBM Video. Switch from a BBM chat to a BBM Video conversation, to catch up face-to-face and
share what’s on your screen.
Your mother wants to see what you plan to wear to her important piano recital, so you start a BBM Video conversation to
show her your new shirt. She can't believe the price that you paid for it, so you use the new Screen Share feature to display
your BlackBerry Browser and the online store's website.
About BlackBerry Messenger
With BlackBerry Messenger (BBM), you can chat and share in real-time with your BlackBerry contacts. For example, you
can see when someone has read your message and when the person is typing a reply. You can also share pictures, voice
notes, your location, and files.
You can use BBM Groups to plan events, delegate tasks, and see when members add or change items. A social space is
created in BBM so that you can chat and share pictures, lists, and calendar appointments with up to 30 people in a group
at the same time.
You can use BBM over a Wi-Fi connection, such as while you're travelling.

post it on your social networks.

Remember
Collecting and organizing tasks, notes, and
more with the Remember app
BlackBerry Remember is a productivity app for collecting, managing, and categorizing the information that you want to
remember. With the Remember app, you can sort your information as entries in folders, categorize the entries with tags,
record voice notes that are related to the entries, and add due dates to entries so that you don't forget to complete a task.
For example, if you're planning a trip to Paris, you can create a folder called "My Trip to Paris" in the Remember app. As
you're browsing the Internet on your device, you can send trip-related websites to the folder. When you remember
something you need to do before the trip, you can add a to-do item to the folder, and add a due date to the item so that you
don't forget about it. Everything you need to remember about the trip is in one place.
The Remember app is designed to sync with the accounts that you add to your BlackBerry device. If you added a work
email account to your device, your tasks and notes from your work account are kept in sync with the Remember app in the
Tasks and Notes folders, and your flagged messages are synced in the Flagged folder. If you added an Evernote account to
your device, you can access your Evernote notebooks in the Remember app and sync your Remember folders to Evernote.
