Apps For MeeGo Store Client
Was writing up a post about another N9Hack, and realised, I haven’t informed you guys about a new “app store” of sorts for the N9. It allows you to download community developed applications. (Similar to N9-Apps.com, but only community apps.)
Along with "Recent, Popular and A-Z", there is also the ability to restrict categories. Just hit the "All" label.Each app has a carousel view of screenshots.
They even released a client for the N9, a while back, and in my opinion, aspects of it look better than the Native Store. There aren’t many apps on there yet, especially if you are not willing to use the testing repository. If you are interested, head over to Apps ForMeego and download the client. To gain access to the testing repo, you will need to install this .deb after the client is installed.
It, along with the apps downloaded through it, are the only ones that have had updates pushed to my device. Hopefully we see all apps from Nokia Store come with this, as it should have been from launch.

Hey nice find! Will have to check that out once I unpack my stuff and get N9 out. (Packed all my gadgets away except laptop and N8…long train ride back to uni)
Are they letting you keep the N9?
the n8. still the true nokia flagship
(it’s funny, despite my n9, on journey a would also choose the n8 – battery life, camera – rest: quite unimportant)
more beautiful interface than stock n9 ovi store, how many apps there are in stable
stage?
By stable, you mean not in testing? There is only a dozen or so. Testing status only means not enough people have reviewed it and said it works.
mft would you be so kind to make ala jay’s lumiapaday for n9? you may call it a fancy name as well like meegoappaday hekhekhekhekhek and post it here on MNB please….
will buy a new phone 2 weeks from now and still cant decide between N9 and Lumia
sorry i forgot you already post your #N9Hacks, just please make it a daily posts >.< please
I am trying to keep it daily. May only do it until I run out of hacks, then I’ll do N9Apps and post the Hacks as they come to me
thanks! cause jay’s lumiappaday is gravitating me towards wp7! and i hate it cause, i want BT TRANSFER, bigger screen, nice audio sound via cable or bt.
Well Lumia has good Audio out via BT (tested in my car) and I think there would be a BT Transfer app. As for screen, get Lumia 900
This is a really great idea.
M-H needs all the community support it can get.
The site only has a few apps, but they made store client for that, well done
It will get a lot more, don’t worry about that.
Great, thanks for sharing
Gr8 Work mate! U ppl r rockin!
