Oh No! Google is ending support for the Gmail app on the Blackberry platform, woe is the Blackberry user. Plagued by downfalls and poor support Blackberry seems to be heading for a downfall. Google has announced that it will end support of the Gmail app for BlackBerry phones on November 22nd.

wait.. how many users actually used gmail app on their blackberry???

I think Blackberry's inbuilt email client is good enough.But yes they will miss the custom features which GMail App offers.

Yes.. my brother uses it via the Email Client, I have never seen him use the Gmail app even though it is installed.
