Most of mobile application developers participating in BlackBerry Jam Asia 2013 have indicated that they will not quit BlackBerry 10 or Windows Phone 8 developments mainly because Apple places strict controls on developers and there have been many free or bad-quality Android-based applications.

　　Some developers also claimed that they will opt to stay in the BlackBerry 10 or Windows Phone 8 camp because the smartphone market has been filled up with too many of iOS and Android applications, offering little space in the two segments.

　　In fact, more Taiwan-based application developers have joined the BlackBerry 10 over the past year, and the number of available BlackBerry 10 applications developed by Taiwan's developers has surpassed 1,000, including those by KKbox, EZtable and Apple Daily, according to sources at Taiwan-based software developers.

　　Some Taiwan-based independent developers for the BlackBerry 10 have also come out with applications for securities transactions, traffic monitoring and video conference/surveillance, the sources added.
