Staying connected with the BlackBerry Hub
You can add practically any existing email account to your device—both work and web-based
email.
Text messages (SMS/MMS)
If text messaging is a part of your wireless service plan, you can find and respond to your text
messages in the BlackBerry Hub.
Social networking
If you add a Facebook account to your device, you can receive and respond to notifications,
update your status, and send Facebook messages all from the BlackBerry Hub. If you add a
Twitter account, you can compose tweets, stay up-to-date on your mentions, and send direct
messages. And if you add a LinkedIn account, you can accept invitations to connect with business
contacts, send messages to your connections, and update your LinkedIn status.
BBM and instant messaging
After you add instant messaging apps to your device, you can access your chats through the
BlackBerry Hub.
Calls and voice mail
You can make calls directly from the BlackBerry Hub. The BlackBerry Hub shows you the calls that
you made and received, including any missed calls and voice mail messages.
Upcoming events
Without leaving the BlackBerry Hub, you can peek at upcoming meetings, events, and—if you add
your Facebook account—friends' birthdays.
Notifications
The BlackBerry Hub collects your notifications about new PIN messages, time zone changes,
software updates, third-party apps, and more. Your service provider might send you SIM Toolkit
notifications that appear in the BlackBerry Hub. Tapping on these notifications opens the SIM
Toolkit app.
