Blackberry is planning to join the trending smartphones to get ahead in the cell phone market, after it was revealed the once very popular Blackberry now has a market share of less than 1 percent.

                

The Ontario-based company is now considering new smartphones that will run the Google Android Operating system in what is believed will win back the customers who had opted for the iOS and Android operating devices.

The Blackberry devices have lacked apps that are common in the recent world, a lot of Blackberry users are not enjoying the massive mobile apps that are available on both Android and iOS devices, even though the recent Blackberry Passport supports the Amazon Appstore's Android apps, the comparison to Apple app store or Google play store is pale.

According to Reuters, the Blackberry devices will run on Android Operating devices starting from this month. A source who is not named as they are not allowed to speak publicly on the issue said:

The move to use Android is part of BlackBerry's strategy to pivot to focus on software and device management. BlackBerry, which once dominated smartphone sales, now has a market share of less than 1 percent.

The spokesperson of from the Ontario-based Blackberry devices said :

  We don't comment on rumors and speculation, but we remain committed to the BlackBerry 10 operating system, which provides security and productivity benefits that are unmatched
