Next in line to get the complete overhaul with new features and redesigned look is the official Youtube app for WP8, this coming about a week of the release of the all new Facebook Beta app. The new youtube app adds a bunch of new features (that were honestly quite needed, metrotube has been my [...]
There are two types of mobile games, those cute little time wasters with “pretty” graphics (like angry birds, fruit ninja, gravity guy etc.) and some pretty awesome graphic intense games that look like they belong on a PC or a console. At the top of the graphics intense list would have to be N.OV.A. 3, [...]
Nokia’s Instagram Awareness app is slowly becoming the instagram for the platform as it adds some more filters. I think Lumia and Nightshot might have always been there, it’s just I might not have opened since the last update. Smartshot might be the newer one. It did have a little indicator saying which filter [...]
We’ve received some info from our readers that twitter for the Nokia N9 has been updated. I just want to let you know that the official Twitter application for the N9 (originally Finnish one) just got updated to 1.3.95+0m8. As turned out from talk.maemo.org forum, a few lucky ones got it earlier and some will only [...]
Pino (The Here Maps go to guy) on twitter was asked when we’ll be seeing live traffic updates in Here Drive, currently traffic is available in Here Maps, but not while in Drive mode (was honestly surprised by this, but then again in Jordan it’s not available in any mode ). Pino’s response was that [...]
As promised by the Hulu team, their app for WP8 has arrived. Hulu is one of the more popular online content providers, similar to netflix but for shows only? (Am I getting that right?). The Hulu Plus app, a subscription based version of Hulu for $8 a month app has finally hit windows phone 8; [...]
There’s an update for City Lens available for Nokia Lumia. Just go to Nokia Collection and hit update if you haven’t received the store prompt that there were updates available. It says ‘bug fixes’ for this update, dated 06th May 2013. Cheers rishabh for the tip
This post was initially just about an update to the PDF Reader app (alternative one that we have posted about frequently) as it now has quite a bit of improvement, including an orientation lock so e.g. you can read sideways in bed in landscape without the screen rotating back to portrait (or whatever you might [...]
So there are plenty of rumours still regarding the possible launch of Instagram this month, but here is something that isn’t. The developer of Pinsation, a Pinterest for WP app, has contacted WPCentral and let them know that he is working on an Instagram client. Like Instagraph, Itsdagram has upload support, although this uses APIs [...]
Lync 2010 and Rail Planner have received an update. Not sure what’s new with Lync 2010 (I don’t use the app myself) but Rail Planner has a few rather useful updates (which is great as I use it a lot travelling between Wales/Uni or our different Hospital/Community placements). Lync 2010: http://www.windowsphone.com/en-gb/store/app/lync-2010/9ce93e51-5b35-e011-854c-00237de2db9e Rail Planner: http://www.windowsphone.com/en-gb/store/app/rail-planner/8dce4a78-1b3e-e011-854c-00237de2db9e Onto Rail [...]

Here’s a quick look at the new Facebook beta for WP8 that was released earlier today: Video Link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oGcPg6n247c&feature=youtu.be
The Facebook app for WP is a bit of a conundrum, on one hand it deals with the metro layout very nicely; on the other hand it is occasionally usually, very clunk. In an effort to change that Microsoft have built up and redesigned a second app (called Facebook Beta for now). So far the app [...]
More in the way of Lytro news, BloomBerg reports that Nokia is said to be investing in lytro-style camera start-up pelican imaging. You saw how one developer in WP had overcome this already with the ‘Refocus‘ app we had previously talked about. Pelican is apparently one of the companies that have mastered this very complicated [...]
Do you remember when we talked about Lytro, a camera that would allow you to choose your focus points as and when you needed it AFTER you took the shot? It wasn’t something I’d expect coming to a camera phone anytime soon, so colour me surprised when someone made it into an app that actually [...]
Some more under the hood improvements to improve your Nokia Lumia experience as Extras + Info gets an update.
One of the coolest things about having a Nokia Windows Phone is the constant stream of updates, tweaks and fixes that Nokia provide to the OS through their own system apps; meaning you don’t have to wait for an update from Microsoft to make your phone even cooler. These “apps” are updated almost once a [...]
Beta Labs has just released Nokia Chat for Windows Phone (both 7 & 8) powered by Yahoo!. Nokia Chat has been available on S40, Asha and Symbian for some time, and now Nokia’s Lumia devices join the fold. Currently restricted to users in Australia, Canada, India, Ireland,New Zealand, Nigeria, South Africa, United Kingdom and the United [...]
Another Xbox live title has been added to the ranks of the WP8 gaming titles. Ice Age Village is the latest game that brings the lovable characters from the movie franchise to your phone in a sort of mini village advancement game I think? (I haven’t played it yet to be honest). The game brings together all [...]
