SNAP Application - Recently Blackberry had released a new Blackberry Operating
System 10.2.1 claimed that it can be used directly to download Android application.
but it does not that easy as they said, you have to find the APK file one by
one.
Let try
another easy way to do it, using SNAP Application. You can download Android
application easily using this. Because it has been verified by Google too
Please use
and read this instruction on the way to do it :
- Try to and installed Google Chrome
- After Google Chrome is installed, open it up and install this extension for Google Chrome on your computer.

| Chrome Extension |
- Download the latest SNAP.BAR file to your computer, place it somewhere you that you can remember.
- Enable development mode on your BlackBerry - Go to Settings>Security and Privacy>Development Mode. Turn the switch to the ON position. Note the IP address it lists as well, it's most commonly set to 169.254.0.1 but if different, make note of it. Also, it may ask you to create a password. If so, make one and do not forget it.
- Take and use your micro-USB cable and plug it into your device, then plug your device into your computer.
- Open Google Chrome and visit https://169.254.0.1/. If your IP found in development was different, replace 169.254.0.1 with the IP found there.
- If you get an SSL error page or it says this sites security certificate is not trusted, that's fine. It's not causing any harm. Just accept and proceed. If you get a different sort of error though, like this page cannot be found or this webpage is not available, try reconnecting your device or try a different USB port.
- Then, you may need to go to the Google Chrome extension settings and enter the correct IP address there. Generally, it auto detects it but if not you'll need to add it manually. Additionally, if you're still unable to connect, make sure your anti-virus is disabled or the app is allowed to run. This often times causes a lot of connection issues especially for Windows user

| SNAP Android Views Installed Application |
- Once you have the page loaded up, enter in your device password that you created to approve access. You will then see a list of what's already installed on your device.
- From there, you can go to the top right hand corner where it says 'Install Apps' and click on that. That will open a file explorer window for your computer, in which case you want to browse to wherever it is that you downloaded the Snap BAR file and select it.
- Once selected, the Snap file will begin installing and you can view the progress in Chrome. When done, you will see 'result::success' indicating that all went well and the file sideloaded properly.
- And now you can now disconnect your device from your computer and we'll look at setting up Snap.
- Note that this process is applicable for any app that you wish to sideload, not just Snap. If there is other BAR files you wish to install, it can be done the exact same way. If this all a bit too complicated for you, you can make life easier and download sachesi for your respective computer. Once downloaded, plug in your device, run the Sachesi app and go to the "Install" tab. From there, drag the Snap bar into Sachesi and it will load it. I will note though, DO NOT go messing with anything else in the Sachesi app if you're not aware of what it does.
