What's new in BlackBerry Tasks

New in BlackBerry Tasks version 3.20

The table below details the new features in this release. For information about fixed and known issues, supported upgrade paths, and the version of the BlackBerry Dynamics SDK, see the BlackBerry Tasks version 3.20 Release Notes. For device OS compatibility, see the Mobile/Desktop OS and Enterprise Applications Compatibility Matrix.
Note: The 3.20 version of each BlackBerry Dynamics app uses the BlackBerry Dynamics SDK version 15.x. This version of the SDK upgrades the Federal Information Process Standards (FIPS) provider to version 140-3, replacing the previous standard of FIPS 140-2. If FIPS is enabled in the BlackBerry Dynamics profiles that are assigned in your UEM environment, you must ensure that any certificates that are used by BlackBerry Dynamics apps are compliant with FIPS 140-3. For more information, including details about the algorithms in 140-2 that are no longer supported, see the details for the FIPS upgrade in the BlackBerry Dynamics SDK version 15.x Release Notes (iOS or Android). For more information about possible impacts on your UEM environment and how to resolve, see KB 141162.
