When the Blackberry Playbook was originally released, one of the preloaded apps that came bundled on it was Kobo. The two Canadian companies reached an agreement early on to give readers a chance to instantly tap into an expansive ebook ecosystem. Today, Kobo has announced that it has finally released its seminal e-reading app for Blackberry 10.

“The Kobo app creates the ideal reading experience for BlackBerry smartphone customers who want to be able to consume books wherever they are and whenever they want,” said Wayne White, EVP of Devices, Kobo. “Readers will be able to manage their library and pick up right where they left off, all on their smartphone.”

BlackBerry 10 smartphone customers who download the Kobo app will receive Forbes.com blogger Jessica Hagy’s How to be Interesting After you Graduate. After Hagy’s “How to be Interesting” post on Forbes.com went viral, attracting more than 1.4 million viewers, Hagy captured her ideas in this quirky book about how to stand out from the crowd. The book, exclusive to Kobo, will be automatically loaded to a customer’s account upon download of the Kobo app.

The Kobo e-Reading app is now available for download on the BlackBerry World, and you can download over 4,500 other BB10 apps at the official Good e-Reader App Store.
