Nokia has made symbian phones very popular. I own a Nokia C6, and this phone is really lovable. But, when you purchase a Nokia Symbian phone it is almost bare. The First thing you need to do is to spice it up with some utility and social media apps. Ovi store will be the first place you should look for free apps that are good for your phone. Here, I am listing 10 of most downloaded free apps from OVI store and these apps are very useful for symbian beginners:
1. eBuddy: eBuddy is very much like Nibuzz but it is more useful app for all those people who want be online on number of instant messengers. This Symbian apps facilitates to chat on MSN, Facebook, Yahoo!, GTalk (Orkut), AIM, MySpace and ICQ. Most of the people out there prefer Nimbuzz but I prefer eBuddy as it also enables email facility.
2. Facebook: Facebook app is a darling, preferred by almost everybody on Symbian and Facebook. It has almost become a lifeline now. You can access Facebook with this app and also get friends update directly to your mobile.
3. Foursquare: Foursquare is very much like a GPS app for your Nokia Symbian phone. This free app from Nokia Ovi Store lets you track the places where you friends have been to and explore new places like restaurants, theatres, malls. Although, most of Indians are not into FourSquare but it is a great time pass apps.
4. Ovi Maps: Ovi Maps Similar to Google Maps. This is a great app to start with as you can download the Map and view it later. This free app lets you use your Nokia Symbian as GPS device and find the places or the paths. With Ovi Maps you find your location, places or addresses and get guided with free Drive & Walk navigation in 78 countries(including India).
5: Opera Mobile 10.1: These days almost every one use their phone to browse internet and opera mobile is best Internet browser, it has become an important software for any mobile phone. Sometime, I prefer to have UCBrowser as it can download many files at once.
6. Qik Video Camera Lite: Qik is a great utility app for camera. Nokia C6 has a 5MP quality camera and with Qik video camera lite you canrecord, share high quality videos with your friends, family and the world – right from your phone. This free app for Nokia Symbian phone can be downloaded from Ovi Store. You can also exchange video messages privately with your family via Email, SMS.
7. Skype: Huh, everybody knows Skype, if not you are missing something. Just install it on your Nokia Symbian smartphone now, as it lets you make free Skype-to-Skype calls and IM on 3G or WiFi, save money on calls and texts (SMS) to phones abroad, share pictures, videos and other files from your phone.
8. Snaptu: Well, I am not sure about Snaptu but some of my friends use it on their Nokia Symbian phones. It has almost all basic social networking needs. You can access Twitter, Facebook, Flickr, Picasa, News, Weather, Sports (Cricket, Soccer…) Movies, Sudoku and much more.
9. Suruk: Suruk would prove to be an useful app( I do not use it more as I use my Bike more than Cabs), but if you travel frequently on cabs. It is basically a digital meter which lets you keep track of the distance you have travelled just to make sure that cab driver is not tampering his fare meter.
10. ePocCam Lite: This is an interesting and more than useful app to have on your Nokia Symbian phone, I have not used it yet but my friends suggested me to include this app in this list. This app lets you use your phone as webcam while you are using messengers like Skype and MSN. Some of my friends, who are on PC and do not have Webcam use it very frequently.
