Ten Must-Have S60 3rd Freeware Applications
Ten Must-Have S60 3rd Freeware Applications:
Long time ago, I have compiled a list of Ten Must-Have S60 Freeware Applications. It was mainly dedicated for S60 2nd Edition phones. Now, I have compiled the new list for S60 3rd Edition. I will be updating this list from time to time.
Before going to the list, freeware here means an application that can be used without paying money to the developers. It includes donationware and open source, but it does not include crippleware and trialware.
Here is the list of Ten Must-Have S60 3rd Freeware Applications (in alphabetical order):
- DivX Player - On of the best video players for S60 phones.
- Google Maps for Mobile - You have maps of the whole world in your pocket. You can even query places, such as restaurant, shops, etc.
- Mig33 - Free instant messaging that supports Yahoo! Messenger and MSN Messenger. It even supports cheap SMS too.
- OggPlay - Nice music player that supports MP3, AAC and MP4, it’s better than the built-in S60 music player in some areas.
- Podcasting - If you are subscribers of audio blogging, this application is definitely must-have for you.
- Screenshot - This one is the application that I develop myself to capture screenshots. All screenshots in this blog are captured using this application.
- Shozu - Upload your photos and videos quickly to the online blog services, such as Flickr.
- STris-2 - A clone of the popular Tetris game.
- SysExplorer and Y-Browser - File explorer is a must-have application for advanced users. I put two file explorers here because both of them are good. You can download them and try which one you like.
- Widsets - A collection of mini applications, called widgets, that allows us to subscribe feed (RSS/Atom) from many different topics.
Compatible devices: S60 3rd Edition, Nokia N-Series, Nokia E-Series.
Update (05-Oct-06): Added Y-Browser as file explorer together with SysExplorer.
Update (06-Oct-06): Added screenshots.
