Nokia Opens Ovi Application
>> Wednesday, June 15, 2011
The Nokia Ovi Store, announced at the GSMA Mobile World Congress 2009,
will officially open for business in May, according to Nokia
officials. The N97, which will be released in June, will be the first
phone to have the store software preintegrated, but other Nokia phone
users will be able to download apps when the store opens.
The Ovi Store is the first content and application store that
personalizes content according to a person's social connections and
physical location, or what Nokia calls 'Social Location'.
The Ovi Store provides developers with a dynamic opportunity to offer
Nokia's global consumer base new applications. Content providers will
be able to get their work into the store via a single channel,
Publish.Ovi.com, which will be open for content from February 16.
Also at the fair, Nokia said that its first model to ship with access
to the store would be its new flagship phone N97.
Microsoft is also planning an "online bazaar" for applications running
on its Windows Mobile
operating system. Blackberry-maker Research in Motion said last year
it plans to launch its app store early this year.
