I have google playstore on my passport. You can install 1mobile market directly from the web and then you can install Uber or any other android app that isnt in the Amazon appstore.

The following are the observations on BB10.3 NATIVE Apps , which are relatively best apps (as on date) after filtration (40% money wasted, as there is no response from BB against my refund request) for the requirement.
1) Zeus Browser by FileArchiveHaven Rs150.00 for flash performance it was only among chrome, opera , Firefox , stock (of android/IOS/BB10.3) etc that was able to open a flash map in hmda.gov.in
2) SMS Scheduler - Text Later by Ajani InfoTech Private Limited Rs50.00, if it can select group (if user created it) from Stock Contacts it will be great
3) Call Recorder for BlackBerry® 10 by Toysoft Development Inc Rs150.00 no need make speaker phone on (but record particular contact option not available)
4) Smart Contact Share by Devcellent Solutions Inc.Rs 50.00N/A for sharing contact as text
5) Color LED for BlackBerry 10 by Droom Soft Rs100.00 for customization of LED (Queuing is required, additional colours may be essential, if slow rising & slow diminishing is provided it will be great)
6) Profile Changer Pro by Toysoft Development Inc Rs 150.00
if large button is given for one time profile (further center button long press activates this function it will be much useful , & one more button if given for overriding to normal mode also great.
7) BookMyShow- Free
8) ContactsImEx-Free for import / export contacts
9) Ghost Commander file manager -Free for hidden file explore
10) TripLogger -Free for tacking on google map & exporting as kml file
11) IRCTC Official-Free font size is very low, not adjustable as on date, train schedule is not available.
12) WhatsApp Messenger-Free
Balance all are Android apps

Download snap onto your passport and every single android app performs so well, nothing like an blackberry: the best phones ever... and that's my opinion so don't care what others think

AnonD-1360, 02 Jan 2016Your so wrong on the apps front. Download BB Beta Labs or l... moreFurther observations
Most of the android apps work as told in my initial opinion but at present only which does not need google play services, all most all sms android app does not work, dialling android apps partially work,
My main intention of expression of opinion is to make the buyer to know the advantages & disadvantages to non BlackBerry users, especially android-samsung users & users who do not want to put any effort in getting desired features / apps other than downloading from official downloads
BlackBerry is more intelligent in Deletion / edition of any word.

Prasanth, 31 Dec 2015Owning Siver Edition ,Awesome phone.Really a head turner.No... morePrashanth try side loading the Truecaller app from android on to the passport, I don't own a passport myself but, I do have a BB 10 device and truecaller works perfectly on my phone. Dont bother downloading the same app from BB world its not worth. Side load the android version of true caller on passport it works just fine.
Give it a shot and lemme know.

knreddy, 01 Jan 2016Additional observations to my user opinion dated 20.12.2015... moreYour so wrong on the apps front. Download BB Beta Labs or look up nemory studio you can download apps like Ola, Uber, Facebook, Scope 10. Did you know half of the apps that work on an android works on the passport. Except apps that don't support 1:1 ratio of screen resolutions. Thanks to Oliver many apps that weren't available earlier on BB are now available. So stop whinning and use some common sense and start searching for apps.
Secondly, BB weren't know for being those fancy android phone which has so many useless apps that you generally dont use most of the time, why even crib thanks to BB the new OS 10 support the cross loading of Android Apps on their new 10 devices.

knreddy, 20 Dec 2015Excellent Phone due to the following factors
1. High in ca... moreAdditional observations to my user opinion dated 20.12.2015
1. The native sampling frequency is 48000 Hz but after repeated listening I can safely opine that the resampling of 44100 Hz music is so perfect (like SSRC)that I am unable to listen any difference.
2)Fiio E07K USB DAC connection is plug & play, stock music player capable to handle lossless flac
3)It's contacts app does not capable to accept any custom labels other than work, home, mobile, other (phone numbers), simply it ignores i.e. other than above contact nos will be missed (whereas android, ios are capable)
4)a)there is no facility to set default phone no from available multiple phone nos of a contact
b) further it's order of preference work , home, mobile no, this is a disadvantage if work no is landline & cannot receive messages
Especially if names are picked up from contacts for group for group messaging, messages may not delivered due above problem
(no capable 3rd party app also available, so you have to prepare /edit to suite BlackBerry from available contacts)
5) As BlackBerry 10.3 OS is not as popular as android or IOS, many native ticketing, travelling apps like ola, uber etc are not available & they are workable in cobalt method which needs some reading & googling
6) since blackberry is only OS (software ) probably not crackable or jail breakable in the world hence we can not bring new features

Possibly, Old-School fashion is to be redesigned and get back proudly to the class again Of course we're calling to the legendary of E71 of the history record that leads SE looks stylishest so we have no issue How it same or but different even the red one there or another black one here or the differ of device chassis materials.Okay if we rekeyboard to the next level PriV Blackberry Flagship hopefully which is work well on Droid platform and Indeed it wont remind me to return to moto milestone again. Finally I'd pay attention for A new passport if you give me one I test you for free , said the game client.

Prasanth, 31 Dec 2015Owning Siver Edition ,Awesome phone.Really a head turner.No... moreFor saving YouTube videos, best option is to download TubeMate app (Android apk). Anyway, I'm not sure there is any YouTube approved app for downloading videos, since YouTube don't like it, even TubeMate cannot be found in official Android PlayStore.

Owning Siver Edition ,Awesome phone.Really a head turner.None of my previous Android had this kind of attention from people. But there are some disadvantages too in terms of App...
1, Facebook - olderversion , you cant open the notifications received It says content cant be opened.
2, Youtube - older version , no option for saving offline videos.
3, Truecaller- will not work.
4, Getting hot sometimes. But not regularly.
But the device is superb in performance .
