  Unfortunately we don't support blackberry anymore.
  
  We have also now withdrawn the app from AppWorld
  
  You can install our regular mobile app though.
  
  The Chess.com mobile app works well on a broad range of mobile phones (provided they support Java and can connect to the Internet), but some models are problematic, and some users get errors using the normal link to download and install the app.
  
  If you're having trouble, here are a few things to try:
  
  1.  Try this alternative link from your phone's browser:
  
  http://chess.com/mobile/bin/www.chess.com/Chess.com.jad
  
  That alone solves the problem for many users.
  
   However, if that doesn't work and you are still getting errors, you may have better luck installing the application via computer:
  
  2. On your computer's browser, open this link:

  http://chess.com/mobile/bin/www.chess.com/Chess.com.jar
  
  3. Download the file and save it on your computer
  
  4. Transmit file "chess.com.jar" to your mobile phone from the computer - using a cable, bluetooth, card-reader, etc.
  
  5. Install on your phone

  I think I've found a (more current) solution (if you are on BB 10). See in "Help& Support" my post "(Feb'14) An App for Blackberry that works (finally!)"

  @skakmadurinn Er. No. Is your comment meant to be a joke? Have you found and read my other post? Very happy to hear if you've found ways of doing if more easily.
