Hi

Android apps cannot be loaded directly, the have to be converted to Blackberry bar files first.

There are quite a few converted android apps but I don't think Navfree has been done yet

check this site for converted android apps..

if you find an app you want to load, it has to be 'sideloaded'.. don't panic it's perfectly straight forward .. instructions here ..

if you need any help just ask.. I also have a big list of converted apps

How to download and load converted android app.. example

You need a small piece of software to 'sideload' called DDPB .. download that first and install http://www.mediafire.com/?b3zwqcnxv3mtmcn

For this example, use Google maps for Playbook (or any other you want)

Go to this link Link Removed

Click the download button.. save the file to your download folder or wherever you want.

Connect your playbook using the usb cable.. follow the instructions:
