My Nokia phone runs on Symbian S60 OS. I like it even though there are many other interesting OSs available like Symbian 3, windows phone 7, Android. I am very much used to my phone right now and I feel very comfortable.
Ovi store by Nokia is where I download apps from. It has loads of apps to download and try. I usually log onto Ovi store and check out apps. Sometimes I find some really useful app and most of the times they fail to impress me. I download and try if it sounds interesting and later uninstall if I find it useless. I am not saying the apps are not good, I don't find it useful for me to use! I'm not too much into games, but if I find some interesting game, I don't hesitate to download!
Let me write about some of the applications which I have liked and which I have found them to be very useful. I will write about one app today and next time I'd continue writing about a different app. But now I'll write about Nokia Situations
Nokia Situations is a very useful app by Nokia. I change the profile of my cell phone to Silent as soon as I reach office. Sometimes I forget to do so and during discussions or meeting the cell phone starts ringing. It lands me in an awkward situation where I should reach for my phone and press the silent button! I know some people don't bother about such things and wouldn't mind if their phone rings loudly! But not Me, I don't like it that way..
So when I read about Nokia situations, I thought this is one app that would be very useful. The description said it will be useful under various situations. I downloaded right away and started checking the options. At first look it just looked like normal Profile explorer. After finding out the Automation option, which would automatically change the profile as per some automation rules, I started realizing how useful it could be! I immediately automated the Silent profile to be activated on weekdays from 10 AM to 7 PM! So at 10, it switches to silent and at 7 back to the General mode! I no longer have to worry about changing to silent mode when I reach office! :)
Automation can be based on many other rules, so far I have tried automation based on time and based on WiFi location. If my cell phone detects some WiFi and if i want some profile to be changed at this location I can do that. Like I'd set the Home profile to be changed as soon as I reach home! But I found that this would drain battery too much and I don’t mind about having particular profile at home! Also automation can be based on GPS location and calendar events. These I haven't got a chance to try out yet. , I know I am not using it to its full potential. As far as I am concerned, as long as it switches my phone to silent during my office hours it’s more than enough for me!
That's it about Situations, I'd write about some other app which I like in the future!
