Ovi Store: Best New Nokia N71 Apps
The Nokia N71 may not be the most cutting-edge of devices but when it comes to making the most of this little flip-top phone, the Nokia Ovi Store has a whole host of apps to make it far more productive. Check out the best new Nokia N71 apps courtesy of the Nokia Ovi Store…
Another week on the Ovi Store brings with it a fresh crop of apps. Why not flip open your Nokia N71 and see what Ovi Store recommends you install from the latest batch?
SMS Spam Manager
Type: Business
Price: £8.00
Size: 0.171MB
DOWNLOAD: SMS Spam Manager
Another SMS filtering app, this one acting as a sort of anti-spam firewall for incoming texts. Up to six different filters can be created to block or allow messages based on keywords, predefined phrases and whole or partial numbers. With unsolicited SMS messages on the rise (or even solicited ones, depending on your social circle) the ability to tune out the bad ones is a valuable asset.
Ghost Maker
Type: Entertainment
Price: £1.00
Size: 0.602MB
DOWNLOAD: Ghost Maker
Not, perhaps, the most useful app on the Ovi Store. Tthen again maybe you really, really need to convince your friends that they are being haunted by malevolent spirits who only manifest when you don’t seem to have your phone on you? If you do – and surely some of you must – then Ghost Maker will ensure that your amateur haunting takes place without a hitch. Hide your handset and the app can set off timed or random spooky sounds and vibrations that will scare those darn kids away from the abandoned fairground.
Autoprofiles
Type: Utilities
Price: £8.00
Size: 0.298MB
DOWNLOAD: Autoprofiles
Autoprofiles can set your phone’s profile and BlueTooth status according to a predefined schedule. Tell your phone to go silent between midnight a dawn, switch to vibrate when you think you will be on your commute, or use a daft ringtone after hours. It’s up to you. Autoprofiles can read your calendar and go into ‘meeting’ mode whenever you are meant to be in a meeting, among other tricks.
Tunerific
Type: Music
Price: £8.00
Size: 0.583MB
DOWNLOAD: Tunerific
Tunerific is a full-featured reference tone guitar tuner. You can select from twelve different tunings and the app also comes with a chord guide that can show you the fingerings for over 300 different chords.
Trackut
Type: Social Networks
Price: Free
Size: 0.32MB
DOWNLOAD: Trackut
Trackut is the latest in the line of mobile social networks that promise to use your phone’s GPS capability to track you location and advertise it to your friends. Perhaps this will be the one that enough people use to make it viable. Who knows?
Before you can download any of these apps you’ll need to register your device with Ovi Store, which also entitles you to updates and message alerts from Nokia and is a great way of keeping abreast of what’s going on at the Ovi Store.
