If you're running BlackBerry® Device Software 5.0 or later on your BlackBerry smartphone, you can connect your BlackBerry®
PlayBook™ tablet to your smartphone to access email, calendars, BlackBerry® Messenger, files, and other data directly from
your tablet. Files and data must be stored on a media card to access them from your tablet.
Your tablet connects to your smartphone using Bluetooth® technology. To connect, you need the BlackBerry® Bridge™ app
installed on your smartphone. You can download it from BlackBerry App World™.
When your tablet and smartphone are connected, these icons appear on your tablet home screen:
