Urgent Safety Notice

BlackBerry has not offered support for their BlackBerrys since at least 2019.
Even some time before that, there was only a security update every few months.
Therefore, operating a BlackBerry smartphone with web access is too risky!

Current websites are usually protected against manipulation with TLS encryption and are inaccessible via BlackBerry because their TLS certificates are no longer updated.
The formerly most secure smartphones are now a security risk for their owners!

BlackBerry has closed its BlackBerry World on 31.12.2019
BlackBerry: Support for older devices ends on 04.01.2022

All apps tested by myself. Sorting by app name
(if known, date of purchase at BB World in brackets), own rating with 1–5 stars
