BlackBerry today announced updates to many of its productivity apps for Android devices.
Now the BlackBerry calendar now offers a month view with a refined picker for selecting times/dates when creating appointments. The contacts app is streamlined with automatic field population to speed up the process of creating new contacts.
BlackBerry’s DTEK security software sees a significant number of updates. For example, the app’s home screen has been overhauled with a new dashboard to better show the phone’s stauts. Notifications and applications can be more finely tuned via new permissions settings. Plus, DTEK will scan the phone at least once per week to make sure the device is up to date.
The privacy shade should be easier to turn on thanks to new home screen controls, and the power management center should be more efficient and offer more useful alerts.
All these apps are free to download individually from the Google Play Store.
