Blackberry HUB plus applications

[R1945]

I not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I am doing it anyway. In my opinion, as a experienced IT user, the Blackberry HUB is by far the best HUB application for Android by far.

It is so self contained, and a bargain. Google has made a mess of things. Applications spread everywhere, updates everyday!
There must be at least 20 stand alone Google apps.

And how many Google updates can you issue, when updates do not clearly offer some new great benefit, obvious feature improvement, or bug fix, why.

Stability is always best, too many Google team mucking with their applications, consolidate.

lT seems that some folks that say the HUB is not secure, no so, it is as secure as Android 14 and Pixel make their phones.

FYI, HUB works perfectly, elegantly, so easy to use and find, Blackberry engineered great software.

I loved Blackberry, and have no issues with the Google Phone, other than here we go again, another model every few months. Goggle please do not be Apple.

My comments, hopefully, some folks will give the HUB a try.

I'm quite intrigued, never had a blackberry... Which hub should I try? There's a few on the play store....

You need 4 Apps HUB, Contacts, Calendar, and Services, .99 cents a month, a bargain.

If you try it let us know what you think?????? I have 4 email accounts, several Text Accounts, and all is so easy to use with this app, including GMAIL, COMCAST, APPLE, etc, Makes my Pixel feel like a race car Blackberry.

Ah man, I loved all my traditional BB's....... especially the Passport. They were so easy to use and live with.

I loved BlackBerry's Hub, especially the combined inbox/sent for emails.

I agree BB Hub is the reason I switched to Android / Samsung. Got a problem now just picked up the S25U and can not add gamil accounts to the BBH google is blocking. Heard of any work arounds?

I think you have to be sure to enable 2FA, or MFA, or whatever they call it, and use the app password option to use when setting up the account in the Hub.

Google was going to disable app passwords back last Sept, but decided to delay that. No word, so far, on if they still plan to get rid of app passwords in the future or not.

Microsoft also scheduled disabling app passwords for Sept. '24, and actually followed through with it.
