The new mobile operating system is causing a lot to talk about. And it is that no one has been left indifferent by the relaunch of BlackBerry, either because of its terminalsor through its platform of applications, which in just a couple of months has reached 100,000 units available for download A key point for users to decide on these terminals and not others. However, despite the enormous variety, there are still some tools that are missing and that, in some cases, may never get to this operating system
Gmail
The client of Google mail is one of the basic tools to take into account when purchasing a terminal. And it is that it not only means having access to the inbox and messages, but to all its options, labels and extra services. Something that BlackBerry 10 users can't enjoy. For now, there are only unofficial applications to receive email from an account Google, but regardless of the design and functionality of the official application.
Google Maps
In the same way, the maps tool most famous and also dependent on Google , it is not present in BlackBerry 10 Question, on the other hand, quite logical. And this application has only been extended to the platform iOS to take advantage of the empty that left the erratic Apple Maps after its release.However, it seems that Google has no interest in extending it to more platforms.
This is the photography social network most controversial. And it is that he has given a lot to talk about at each step. As much for his purchase last year for Facebook for a dizzying $100 million , such as its expansion to Android, which has helped it grow exponentially in the number of users. However, it seems that is not reaching other platforms on your roadmap Windows Phone users know this well , who along with Nokia have led a pressure campaign to trying to get it to this operating system, so far without success. Which portends that it is even more difficult to reach BlackBerry 10
Skype
Despite the evolution of BlackBerry Messenger and the fact that WhatsApp is already present in this system operational, the need to make calls and video calls with users of other platforms is still pending, the greatest exponent of which is in the application Skype However, for now it is not available for the terminals of this operating system, although its arrival is expected soon , without a specific date.
Angry Birds
This is not a basic tool for smartphones, but it has certainly marked a milestone in the entertainment on portable devices However, it is another of the absent applications in BlackBerry 10 Despite the fact that the version of Star Wars of these angry little birds it seems that will come to this platform, we will still have to wait to play any of the games in this series.
Youtube
Like the rest of Google applications, it still does not have an official version for BlackBerry 10 However, the interest of various developers in this famous video portal has led them to create unofficial applications to be able to enjoy the contents of YouTube The point negative is that these tools do not have the functions of the official version, such as customize the channel or subscriptions They are just a merebrowser to search for videos. It's certainly better than nothing.
Google Drive
BlackBerry 10 users already have at their disposal several cloud storage applications or Internet as Dropbox However, they do not haveGoogle Drive which, in addition to storage, offers its users the ability to create, share, and collaborate on text documents, tables, and presentations from the same application.A most useful office tool that once again must be replaced with tools paid or unofficial
One of the last social networks to reach the market and that has had the greatest growth is not present in BlackBerry 10 It's about Pinterest and its charismatic tabloneswhere you can click images of what interests you, follow other users and their tastes, and repin or share content Something that for now cannot be enjoyed in this new OS.
The newsreader or, rather, social magazineThe best known is also conspicuous by its absence in BlackBerry 10 Thus, those users who want to read the latest publications of your favorite media outlets and find out about status updates from social networks like Facebook , Instagram or Twitter from the same application, they will have to wait or put up with it.And it is that Flipboard does not seem willing to make an appearance either.
Path
Finally, another of the applications that is not in the catalog of BlackBerry 10 is Path, the intimate social network A curious concept created especially for users who want to have a private environment to share pthoughts, music, photos edited with filters, videos and more with only 150 people In other words, an environment for the familyfamily and close friends
In short, applications that have achieved great success on the two main platforms and that will take time to reach BlackBerry 10 or never will. A notable lack, although this operating system already boasts of having the pmain applications, social networks and tools of the top lists of Android and iOSA laudable piece of work given the short amount of time between its launch and the milestone of 100,000 applications available for download
