Many have wanted Shazam to come to MeeGo-Harmattan, and in true Maemo Community fashion, devs make alternatives. This is exactly what Eyrie is. Eyrie will listen to what music you’re playing, and after recording a 30 second sound clip, detects what the song is. It uses the EchoNest library, an open-source way of detecting a [...]
I said one a week, so am pushing this back a week. This is just awesome! I’ve used AccuWeather since I first got my N9, mainly as it integrated with the Events screen. I had tried MeeCast, and really liked the UI, but the integration with Events screen made AccuWeather the better option. For some [...]
Here is a demo of the Face Unlock app, Facelock for Nokia N9. This isn’t new to Nokias – at least 2 Nokia Worlds ago I remember this app winning the dev contest for this idea and implementation. I’m not sure how this will work with pictures, if like ICS on Android it might be [...]
I know, the name is pathetic. If you have a better idea, let me know. Anyway, so I’ve brought to your attention an app called Home Screen Settings. It is truly the greatest home screen hacking tool out! Currently, it can; Unlock/Lock devices orientation Remove the weather widget from events view Show only white text [...]
Its been way too long since my last N9Apps post. I am going to try to do at least one a week. Now today’s app is called Easy Answer. It’s another one of those apps that just makes the N9 easier to use. What does it do? It runs in the background (if enabled) to [...]
Huge uproar has been flooding TMO as N9 owners have been waiting for the release of the community port of WhatsApp, Wazapp, said to be released May 1. There was speculation it was all done just to get donations and scam people. The developer has recently posted this on the thread at TMO Hi, I [...]
For quite a few N9 users, Ubuntu is the main OS on their PC. Now, thanks to a member of the Ubuntu One team, an unofficial version of the cloud storage system is now available on our Harmattan devices. It is developed in QML and is quite slick for the little bit that I used [...]
A date has been set for the public beta version of the Whatsapp client, Wazzap. http://www.wazapp.im/ http://n9suomi.webs.com/apps/blog/show/14423125-wazapp-beta-tulee-1-5- We saw that demoed here: http://mynokiablog.com/2012/04/19/n9-apps-video-whatsapp-for-nokia-n9-with-wazzap/ Cheers Morpog and Timo for the tip.
Here is Spotify demoed on the Nokia N9. I recorded this two days ago during my lunch break, just after recording the Lumia version. It wasn’t planned but I thought I needed to give it another go. This means that it was the first time I had used the N9 version. It’s only posted [...]
Well, well, what do we have here? Fruits of some community effort to bring Whatsapp functionality to the legendary Nokia N9. It has been much anticipated. Whatsapp’s refusal to bring the app officially is not going to stop the community from getting whatsapp for the N9 . Well done Wazzap! First look on Wazapp [...]
We were contacted by a developer yesterday named Kimble Young who wanted to share his app – a game for Symbian and MeeGo called Word Tiles – an equivalent to Words with Friends. Scrabble if you will. Word Tiles Price: Free Link: http://store.ovi.com/content/257776 He asked if we wanted to know any more so we asked [...]
Just got sent this now on Twitter. There is a new mobile browser based on QT5 Webkit, known as Snowshoe. It is also for the desktop. It is a new project, and still under development, therefore there are still quite a few bugs. Here’s what the developer’s have to say. Snowshoe is an open source [...]
There is quite a few FM Radio apps for the N9 available now, but this is one of my favourite. Simple, good looking, and feature packed. It features; Auto scan function, The ability to save stations, Customisable station names Manual tuning Choice of headphones or speaker (although headphones act as antenna and must be plugged [...]
So I have shown you guys various ways to get MSN, Yahoo! and various other IM services on your N9′s, with the easiest being ExtraPlugin for Accounts UI. I was trawling through TMO and discovered that this has actually been removed from the store. Apparently it doesn’t work correctly with PR 1.2, yet it is [...]
Here’s a great port from Harmattan now available on Symbian – It’s Quasar MX Beta recommended by SLAYER in our recommend an App section: http://mynokiablog.com/tips/recommend-an-app/#comments The more MeeGo-Harmattan UI looks real nice, quite in line with what Belle was trying to do. Price: Free Link: http://store.ovi.com/content/241788# Developer Blurb: QuasarMX is a light-weight, fast and convenient music [...]
This is by far the best hack currently going for the N9/N950. It is called Inception. I won’t go over what it does in detail, that is what the TMO thread is for. http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=1175013 I will say, Inception makes your N9 more open then ever! Of course, if you don’t use terminal a lot, and [...]
We said we were in the middle of uploading a video demoing FireFox on the Nokia N9. http://mynokiablog.com/2012/03/06/n9apps-flash-on-the-nokia-n9-demo-with-bbc-iplayer-video-uploading-atm/ Here it is.
Yes! Finally! When FireFox arrived we were told Flash would come soon after and yes sir, it is here. http://mynokiablog.com/2012/02/25/n9apps-firefox-demoed-on-nokia-n9-available-at-nokia-store-flash-for-next-week/ Look above and I have BBC iPlayer on my N9. Note, I have only just installed it so I can’t give a full verdict on performance. However, youtube works fine. Video/audio in sync. However you [...]
With PR1.2, the Nokia N9 was supposed to have video call ability. Skype video however still wasn’t working. But Gtalk does. Here’s a sample call between two Nokia N9s, recording with a Nokia N900 by toycie1993 (BTW, Skype video works fine on my Lumia. You just don’t have a front cam :p It has its uses [...]
Yes, you’re reading that correctly. GTalk video call is now on the N9, via an app published on the Store by Nokia themselves. It does require the PR 1.2 update. I am yet to use the video calling function as no one I know uses GTalk. There is no UI as such for it, just [...]
I saw John tweet that FireFox is available on the N9 (with flash coming soon). Fired up N9 and gave it a quick demo. Apologies for the low resolution, it’s YouTube’s quick upload (still currently processing- man direct upload sucks so bad). It’s quite good, a little hiccups in places but could possibly be rather [...]
