Research In Motion (RIM) doesn't want to miss the mobile phone app train. So much so, that the Canadian company was encouraged to launch its own application store, called App World, as has Apple, Nokia, Vodafone and many other companies dedicated to mobile telephony. The store went live on April 1, 2009, just when it appeared in a polished beta version, with several applications available to all users of a Blackberry terminal.
After a year, RIM has published the App World 2.0, a new version that brings news and many more applications for those who are already willing to download them. The second version of the online store for mobile programs has arrived with a sea of succulents for users. In fact, one of its main attractions has to do with the price of the applications, since their price has been reduced. From now on, users who want to purchase one of these programs will do so at prices of $ 0.99 to $ 1.99, which would be 0.79 and 1.5 euros at the current exchange rate..
Until now, the applications that RIM offered on the App World had not been sold successfully. In part, due to its high price. Among other improvements in version 2.0, we must mention the fact that the search process has been adapted to make it much easier to find the application we are looking for. In turn, RIM has also incorporated support for QR codes, the same ones that will allow us to access the automatic download of an application if we scan the code with a Blackberry terminal that incorporates a camera.
