LACK OF APPS FOR C7

Hi,
I bought my C7 last December and paid a lot of money for it !!  as I had Nokia's previously I thought that I was doing a good investment.
However, I was proven wrong ...  the C7 is an excellent camera and looks amazing but that's all .. browser very difficult to use so I had to download the Opera one which doesn't support flash so no videos and, most important :  NO APPS
I see my friends with Androids and Iphones and I feel very jealous ...  all the apps are made for those phones only !
I really want to sell my phone but also the front camera stopped working after the Anna update so I will have to pay for the service before selling.  Thank you Nokia  !!
My question is to most experienced members of the forum .. should I sell it now or do you have news that Nokia will develop the apps section ?  gosh, can't believe I'm still hoping
thank you

It's unlikely that you will see a massive increase in available apps for the symbian platform. It will most likely continue at it's current pace until Nokia ceases producing symbian models in the next few years.
It's been know for almost a year now that Symbians days are numbered and that Nokia is focusing on Windows Phone as it's primary platform. Apps for that platform have increased rapidly since Nokia released the Lumia 800 & 710 and some are predicting that it will beat iOS to the number 2 spot in 2015.
If apps are your priority now is probably a good time to sell as it's unlikely to greatly improve for you.

  • Open Question: question to those who comment about the lack of apps for Windows Phone 8

    We have read every Lumia review and we are listening. An open question to those who comment about the lack of apps for Windows Phone 8.Tell us which apps you miss? Nokia/MSFT Customer Care

    The major apps that are missing are Banking Apps.  There are a few, but major banks like Regions Bank, Capital One Bank, are nowhere to be found for Windows Phone.  Microsoft should be pursuing these banks to develop apps for the platform.  Maybe bribe them with free software or tech support or something.  Also some of the dating apps like Grindr for the gay community, Blender for the straight community, are lacking as well.  Perhaps Microsoft could assist them in developing the "unified" app for both Windows and Windows Phone?
    In fact, Microsoft would do well to begin a "Developer Assistance Program" where developers could (for a small fee) contact the DAP Center and get assistance with issues creating apps for the Windows Platform.  If developers know they have a source to go for assistance, they may be more inclinded to develop better apps.

  • Not Many Apps for Mac

    I just got the new iMac and the lack of apps for this computer is dissappointing.  I have an ipad and I have many apps on there that I would like to be able to use on my Mac, since most of my day is spent on the Mac.  By syncing my ipad on the Mac, would that grant me access to those apps?

    Nope. The iPad Apps are not compatible with the Mac.

  • Looking for a free app for secure note taking with search feature (unlimited)

    Hi dudes,
    As the topic suggests, I'm looking for a free app for secure note taking with search feature without any restriction on the number of notes or any other major restriction. I already use HiDisk (which lacks search feature), and security note+ (which has limitation on the number of notes). I also have used My Disk which its search feature doesn't work correctly (it's buggy).
    Thank you.

    One named NotePad is free, saves as .txt files.
    Another, WriterRoom, costs $1.99USD, and saves as .txt and .doc files.

  • When is apple going to release a iPhone 5 alarm clock? The lack of accessories for the iPhone 5 is really making me wish I would have just kept my 4s.

  • Lack of apps and games!

    i've been a fan of nokia phones for a long time... last year i bought a nokia c7 and i love it but there is a big problem that nokia is having which is LACK OF APPS AND HD GAMES!! 
    i mean check out the app store or the android market with its amazing apps and fun games!!
     and i started hating my phone for this!
    can u find a solution? plz  

    There is no solution, but you have choices. You can wait and see what gets released or you can sell your phone and buy one that has the apps/games you want.
    The symbian operating system is coming to an end (as announced in February 2011) so it's only natural that developers of apps/games have turned their attention to other platforms, such as Windows Phone that Nokia is now using as it's primary smartphone platform.

  • Microsoft Apps for Belle

    Hi
    Does anyone have information regarding availability of Microsoft Apps for Belle for N8

    Thanks for your reply, svi78. Only, I feel a bit disappointed for the confusing communications around this subject, on generic blogs/tech news but on Nokia sites as well.
    Just an example, from this page: http://europe.nokia.com/find-products/nokia-belle-update/nokia-belle-update-faq?intc=ncompromolp-fw-...
    "When are the Microsoft applications available for Nokia Belle phones and how do I get them?
    The Microsoft apps including Microsoft Lync 2010 Mobile, Microsoft PowerPoint Broadcast, Microsoft Document Connection and Microsoft OneNote applications are available as an extra software update over the air via the software update app on your phone or via Nokia Suite. (Note: For E6 Microsoft apps are available for download only via Nokia Suite.)
    The rollout has already started and the Microsoft apps update is available for customers who have Belle software on their phone and a productcode that belongs to Finland, India, United Kingdom, Brazil, Germany, China, Netherlands, Italy, Spain, Turkey, Russian Federation, South Africa and Mexico. Other countries will follow in the next few weeks. Please note that Microsoft apps for E6, N8 and Nokia 500 will be available at a later point."
    Since I bought an official Italian 701 thinking that a native Belle phone would have been included in the enabled ones, I have to say the above statement is untrue, or misleading at least... Not to mention the lack of a support page for the 701 on Nokia Italy's web site, or the recently discussed issues about compatibility reinstalling Belle FP1 via NSU or Nokia Suite on the 701 itself. But these rants belong to other threads.
    Cheers...

  • App for tracking inventory, raw material, expenses, sales, etc.

    I'm on the verge of starting a simple business (if all goes well). I will be producing simple things like candles, eventually essential oils, etc, but may also sell things NOT produced from raw materials. I'm wondering if anyone has a recommendation for the best app for keeping inventory of raw materials & items produced by them, as well as keeping track of cost & sales of those things. Something simple, yet that's not lacking the essentials.
    Thanks.

    Hi Surya
    I guess you would be using Price Control V.. In that case, even a standard cost estimate wont help you
    If Price Control is V - Then you can take some cue from the appended thread... Product Costing-Overhead inclusion in Inventory standard cost without PPV
    refer the reply from Chetan especially.. You need to have the 4 cond types in MM Pricin procedure.. however, only one of them (base Price) would post offset to GR IR and not the other 3...
    You may think of using a routine as said by Althea
    As regards activating raw mat cost estimate - KKPAN - Functions > raw mat > Activate

  • Is there an official Rugby World Cup App for iPhone coming any time soon?

    Is there an official Rugby World Cup App for iPhone coming any time soon?

    Its good to know that I am not the only one left wondering about this!
    I expected the RWC 2011 website to post some information regarding this, though it appears they have something set up with Blackberry already.
    I'm holding out, hoping that an official app will come along, but some of the non-official ones seem quite decent.
    There seems to be a real lack of iDevice and Andriod official services/support for this RWC, which is a real shame because this would be the first RWC where you could combine the sport with great technology and communications.
    To me it appears the organizers missed a great oppertuinity or suck at planning/promoting.
    An iPhone/iPad official app would be fantastic!

  • Medical apps for Pre

    After multiple years of working my way up from a 505 I am now concidering a Pre.  My biggest concern is for work--medical.  Anybody out there using medical apps that has any helpful ideas? I have heard that epocrates works but what about my references, calculators, etc.  Somebody give me some good news, please!!
    Post relates to: Palm TX

    as far as I have heard, epocrates is the only one that has already stated that it will be developed for the pre:
    http://palmdoc.net/?p=2198
    here are some of the medical community concerns:

    and yet one more article with info about medical apps (or lack there of):
    http://mobihealthnews.com/2570/palm-pre-launches-with-no-medical-apps/
    for now, epocrates online and webMD will have to do.  I'm really hoping they come out with apps soon, i don't get a signal in some parts of my hospital :-(

    I can't recommend anything less than 32 GB.    Once you have it, you will find other uses for the iPad and fill up the storage very easily.
    If you are trying to keep cost low, I suggest the iPad mini. (I can't recommend the iPad Air - lack of quality control)
    Wifi only is fine, I hardly ever use anything else.
    What quality control issue are you referring to with iPad Air?  I know lot's of people, myself included who have the Air and there is nothing wrong with them.

  • Lack of Apps on 9380

    i have recently purchased a 9380. good phone but very few apps available. many apps that i used on my old 9300 are not available viz., Blackberry travel, accuweather, ICE, Make my trip, QR code scanner Pro, The Times of India, The Weather Channel, Vlingo, VR+ Voice Recorder,Whats App, World Mate and many more. whats worsse is that many of these apps have been paid for and are now useless. newer apps that have been released such as The Economic Times are not available for this device. so then whats the use of 'upgrading' to a new phone. will Blackberry please wake up and set this right.

    I too upgraded from BB Tour 9630 to BB Curve 9380. I had a steady set of apps which I used frequently like Travel. The availibility of apps (or the lack of it) for Curve 9380 has been a big disappointment & a nightmare for me. RIM has released OS 7.1. Not sure if that will be made available for Curve 9380. I just hope someone at RIM reads this & makes the apps available. Thats the least RIM can do for the Blackberry loyalists like me.
