Paid Apps arrive in Singapore BlackBerry App World
Good news for all Singapore BlackBerry users. You can finally buy Apps from the BlackBerry App World! FINALLY Lor. I’ve been hearing news that paid apps is coming to Singapore BlackBerry App World since late last year. I’m so glad that it is finally here. Well, to be fair, they aren’t exactly that late. Note that you still can’t purchase apps on Android Marketplace.
Apps can start as low as US$0.99. Payment for apps can be made via PayPal and Credit Cards. BlackBerry App World have a feature to charge your purchase to your next Telco bill. But this feature is not yet available in Singapore as no arrangement has been made between RIM and the 3 telcos. Let’s hope talks are in the way and we’ll be able to charge purchases to our Telco bill soon.
As much as I love free apps, sometimes you can’t deny the fact that paid apps usually have higher quality. So having a paid app section is always good for the mobile OS ecosystem.Let’s hope developers will make full use of this App World and start developing quality apps for BlackBerry.
BlackBerry also released their App World 2.0. The biggest improvement that I can see on the BlackBerry App World 2.0 is the addition of BlackBerry ID. BlackBerry ID let’s you manage app easily and seamlessly transfer all apps when switching to a new BlackBerry smartphone. If you have a BlackBerry, why not try it out?
