About BlackBerry ID
A BlackBerry ID gives you convenient access to multiple BlackBerry products and services. Once you have created a
BlackBerry ID, you can use your email address and password to log in to any BlackBerry product that supports BlackBerry
ID. With BlackBerry ID, you can manage apps that you have downloaded from the BlackBerry World shopfront and keep
apps you downloaded when you switch devices.
If you have previously created a BlackBerry ID, you must use it when you set up your new device (instead of creating a new
BlackBerry ID). You can log in to both a tablet and smartphone using the same BlackBerry ID.

Tip:
It's important to choose a password that you can remember. For your BlackBerry ID username, be sure to use an email
address that you use frequently. Recovery details can be sent to the email address that you use as your BlackBerry ID
username if you forget your BlackBerry ID password. The email address that you use as a BlackBerry ID username doesn't
have to be associated with your BlackBerry device.
1. To create a new BlackBerry ID when you set up your BlackBerry device, on the

screen, tap
