Getting Started.
Out Of The Box Experience
When you first power on the device, you will proceed through
a setup wizard that will walk you through the initialization of
the device. This will consist of setting the preferred language,
Wi-Fi setup, Date and time setup, User Name, Google Account
Login, and Google terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
Content Transfer
Switching to a PRIV will be easier than ever.
During the setup of your Priv device, you will be prompted
to use the BlackBerry Content Transfer app to move
contacts, pictures, music and more from your previous
BlackBerry, Android, iOS, or Windows phone device.
The BlackBerry Content Transfer app is preinstalled
and can be used any time after the initial device set up.
Tap & Go is a utility that will quickly copy Google Accounts
and backed up apps and data from an existing Android device.
Make sure the other device is on, unlocked, and that NFC is enabled.
Then briefly place the two devices back-to-back until you hear
a tone. The data will be then transfered via NFC.
You will be prompted to use Tap & Go during the Setup Wizard.
The BlackBerry Content Transfer app provides three options
for transferring the data from your previous device.
• Google Drive: Transfer the data through the cloud storage service
that’s associated with your Google account.
• Media card: Save data on a media card and then insert the
media card into your new device.
• Wi-Fi: Connect both devices to a private Wi-Fi network to transfer
your encrypted data.
Simply follow the on screen directions to complete the transfer.
The content transfer app will need to be installed on your
previous device.

Exclusive BlackBerry
Experiences on Android.
Keep life organized with BlackBerry®
Hub. This unified
inbox is an irreplaceable tool for consolidating all of your
messages in one place. Whether it’s social media*, email,
SMS, calendar or phone calls.
BlackBerry®
Calendar
The best out-of-box calendar experience on Android. When
it’s time to join a call, PRIV presents you with a simple Join
Now button that automatically dials you in. When receiving
or creating meeting invites, you are presented with adjacent
or conflicting appointments.
The Hub Message List
Powerful search tool that allows
you to search the entire Hub or
filter by account.
Filter The Hub by snoozed, Unread,
High Importance, or Flagged
messages.
Filter the Hub by account, access
custom view, access Hub
settings, and add a new account.
Manage which folders are synced
to the device. When a folder is first
selected you have the option to
‘sync now’ for one time access,
or ‘Always’ to have the folder
continually synced.
Full integration of Calendar
meeting invites from within the
Hub. Accept, Cancel, Join, and
Delayed are available.
Tap the compose button to begin
a new message.
Calendar Peek
Pull down within the
Hub message list for
a quick view of up to
4 of your next meetings
or calendar events.
Interact with these
by accepting, declining,
or warning the organizer
that you are going to
be a few minutes late.
Productivity Tab
Along the screen’s curved edge, is the productivity tab
that provides an “at a glance” view of the most pertinent
info from Hub, Calendar, Task, and Contacts. Tap on any
of the four icons within the tab to glance at the most pertinent
info for the associated application. Tapping on an item within
the list will open the associated application and message
into view.
BlackBerry®
Pop-Up Widgets
Widgets are a great way to get information quickly, but
can take up a lot of space on your home screen and display
content and messages that you may not want all to see.
With BlackBerry®
Pop-Up Widgets, you can view any application
widget by simply swiping up or down across the icon on
your home screen, giving you fast access to the information
you need, when you need it.

TIP: Keyboard Shortcuts within the BlackBerry Hub
allow for quick action.
