Valentine’s gift: Friend View updated – now with alerts… and more!

Posted on 14. Feb, 2009 by geek in Applications, News

Friend View is a social location and micro-blogging service that helps you keep up with your close friends. With Friend View, it is fun to share what you do and feel, and you can easily do this from home, work, or on the go!

If you are a regular Friend Viewer you most likely have already updated. If not, just start the application to get the update and check it out! And if you still don’t have Friend View in your phone, then just go to friendview.nokia.com from your S60 browser OR PC browser and download it.

Now you don’t need to be opening Friend View over and over to check for updates, if you hide Friend View it will keep updating locations and posts in the background and it will let you know if there is something new going on. So far we alert you when there are new posts or comments, but we are still working on in order to add a bit more fun to it. You can turn the alerts off whenever you want in the settings (options-more-settings).

When you leave Friend View running in the background it of course needs network connection and that uses some battery, so there are three refresh modes that you can select from the main menu:

• The Off mode is of course the best in saving, so when you are for example running out of battery you can set this mode and just relax.
• The Normal mode will refresh regularly.
• And the Active mode will refresh very fast. This one is nice to use when you are for example meeting a friend. As it uses quite some battery it automatically turns back to Normal mode after 30 minutes so you don’t need to worry about too much use. Of course you can still turn Friend View off with the red key instead of hiding.

COMPATIBLE:

Tested with Nokia 5320 XpressMusic, 6110 Navigator, 6210 Navigator, N95, N95 8GB, N82, N96, E71, E90, N80 and E61. Should work on all Nokia devices based on S60 3rd Edition.
