Whilst the challenges continue with Nokia, one of the recent shining lights for me is the Ovi App Wizard system. It enables you to specify a few RSS feeds, a logo and some colours… and boom, an application is created that works on almost all Ovi-compatible handsets.
It’s ridiculously easy to use. Just register and get started testing out — all you need is an RSS feed to begin. And it’s free.
I published Mobile Industry Review’s app a while ago and I’m delighted that it’s still getting a lot of use. Indeed, in the last 7 days, it’s had 104 users and 419 page views. I decided to create a dedicated Mobile Developer TV app with the wizard … because I can. And because it’s toooooo easy. I think I created it in about 5 minutes flat.
And it’s doing very well. Much better than Mobile Industry Review actually. Here are the headline stats:
Wooo.
Do check out the Ovi App Wizard. And if you’d like to see a video of me making the MIR one, check this post out.
