Nokia Download!
Posted by admin
Nokia Download! is available on most Series 60 handsets and some Series 40 mobiles.
This service offerings categorised software - installing this app you are able to download applications, games, tones, graphics, videos in to your handset.
To be honest Nokia Download! is the worst service among such solutions as Android Market, Apple App Store or BlackBerry Application Centre.
The interface number of apps and app descriptions are poor. Installation is disturbing - with multiple confirmation messages and incongruous file management system. Billing system is unclear too - there are no pricing information available.
Download! is attempt by Nokia to provide application distribution system but it looks distinctly amateurish.
