Seeing how Facebook updates their apps for Blackberry, it boggles my mind why they don't have a full fledged Instagram app in the BB App store yet. I feel that the App store alone is the biggest flaw of any Blackberry device.
Looking @ the link above, this android apk installation looks very promising. I was worried that having the option to install an android app would be useless if the app doesn't render itself appropriately for the device it's being installed on but judging from the photos, it seems to do a good job.

I recommend getting igrann pro, it's worth the $1 or $2
With one igrann you can save the pictures haha, I don't think instagram let's you? Lol made myself sound like a creep haha.

What are you guys doing to make your Blackberry devices become "slow as fuck?"
I'm trying to do that and to no avail is it going to happen. Beside physical wear and tear, a Blackberry has never slowed down on me.

Recently whatsapp has been a bitch after an update. Also, I always used to get this glitch in my texts, where they would just freeze. That was fixed like two updates ago but it was still really annoying..

I thought 2GB Ram, Dual-Core, I would be fine! Yah it's definitely not up to par with my HTC M8 but I thought it would be sufficient.
Now I'm scared. :S
Do you think I will experience a huge downgrade from my HTC M8 or iPhone 5?

Oh, I see. I'll make sure not to run WhatsApp. It's too mainstream anyway.
