Five more apps for music lovers

Published by Steve Litchfield at 11:20 UTC, August 5th 2010

Nokia’s blog has picked out five applications for your smartphone that will make your time at the summer music festivals just that little bit better. But only five? Surely there are more than that? Ewan Spence dons his blue suede trainers and heads online to find the top apps for music lovers. Power and bandwidth aside, what else do you need?

"First up, the five from Nokia were ForecaWeather, eFestivals Survivor, Shazam, Handheld Mirror and PhoneTorch, all from the Ovi Store, of course. So I’m not going to choose any of those five.

Neither am I going to choose the bespoke application for the V-Festival from Virgin Mobile and Nokia, because that’s only for a specific festival, but I do want to point it out as a really neat idea and if you are heading to V, it’s a good application to have to hand."

Is it really the case the Gravity supports Facebook updates (or Foursquare, for that matter)?

I keep reading that it does (mostly on this site), but the latest version (1.22 build 6032) definitely doesn't and there's no mention of it at all on the mobileways website.

Yes Gravity does support. Download 1.30 from their website http://mobileways.de/products/gravity/gravity/

if spotify gets a mention, so does Grooveshark. Essentialy the same product, but admittedly grooveshark isn't as cutting edge. However, the price difference ($3pm instead of £10pm for spotify) helped me make my mind up!

@nstirton: one more major advantage GrooveShark has over Spotify - it isn't geo-locked to certain countries. It's available worldwide. Plus, they're working hard to improve their app. The Symbian version has only been out since last month, and already 5 versions have been released (mostly bug fixes but a few new features here and there), so I think we can be optimistic regarding its chances of overtaking spotify in terms of functionality and performance.
