In my last post, I covered the pros and cons of the iPhone killer – Nokia 5800 XpressMusic. Here I introduce you with some highly useful applications.
Applications
SMS Timer
This handy application schedules your messages to be sent on a future date & time. Highly useful if you want to want to send Festival greetings, Birthday wishes, etc.
Many of my friends using this had a problem to first understand the functioning of the program. So here is how to do things with the application once installed.
Just check the settings in the SMS Timer window in the applications folder and see if its enabled. Now just type the messages as you do earlier and click on send. A popup will pop asking you to schedule it or send it immediately. So if you want to schedule it, use schedule now or if you want to send it immediately use the other option.
Wave Secure
Losing you phone can be really heavy on you, especially when it’s not a phone worth losing. Wave Secure comes to your rescue here. It remotely locks your phone, wipes out data and even tracks the recent activity on your device.
Smart Guard
Hiding your phone from your friends as you are afraid of getting your private photos, messages, etc being visible to your friends isn’t a practical solution. So to put a stop to this, Smart Guard gives you the freedom to hide few files from people. Don’t worry you can access the hidden files from the application interface by entering a password defined by you during start up.
You can also make the hidden files visible. The most interesting feature of this application is that it works in background and doesn’t even give a hint to people looking at your images directory that some files are hidden.
Mail for Exchange
With Mail for Exchange, fast accessing to your email anywhere, anytime; opening attachments on your handset is as simple as doing it on your PC! You can also sync your contacts, tasks and calendar to easily manage your work day and make the best of every precious minute!
Quick Office
With this application, you can easily open Microsoft Word, excel and Powerpoint files on your phone.
Please note that this application is not free and you can install this application by going to Menu > Download>Applications > S60 > Quick office to download.
Games
Touch Card Match
The classic match and set the pace game with nice visual and audio effects. All you need to do is to tap the boxes and match the similar looking objects to score points.
Touch Manuever
In this game, your aim is to drag the bubble with your fingers or the stylus to the finish line with grazing the track.
Marble Maze
All you need to is to handle the ball by tilting the screen here and there and guiding the ball to the finish line avoiding the holes.
Touch Piano & Guitar
Ever wanted to play a guitar or a piano on your touch sensitive mobile device? Just add this to your list of games and go creating new tunes.
The only problem of the games is that you can’t save the tunes you make.
