    Can L930 Here app do voice turn by turn navigation?

    I was in Bath last week with the wife and had the address of a restaurant in Cortana's favourites. I selected the address and followed the app through to the Here navigation app selected "walking" and it showed me the route to walk from where we were to the restaurant. I plugged in my earbuds...

    Confused about the Podcast App

    So I saw the WPC news article about Sam Sabri's start screen and he has the Podcast app as a shortcut to the start screen. Presumably this is the default one that you go into via the "xbox music & video app", however when I do that, then tap on "podcasts", all I get is "its lonely in here. go to...

    What else do you want Cortana to help you with?

    Personally, I'd like to see less news about "new and updated 8.1 apps" and "Cortana can do this and that". The release is supposed to be for devs only but it seems practically the whole user base has it. For those of us that don't have it (yes I do actually know how to get it) and are waiting...

    HDR Photo Camera - any users?

    I just bought this app after seeing this thread and some of the stunning photographs in it. Have to say "WOW!!" - love this app. However I am also seeing that the shots are grainy. What did you do to the settings to resolve the graininess?

    Which camera app?

    Seriously there are so many camera apps around now for the Nokia phones that it's becoming confusing to determine which one is the best - or which is the best for whatever situation. Hopefully this very brief list will help some of the uncertain people or new owners to decide. For example, on my...

    What are your favorite mobile photo editing tools?

    I have a number on my phone but I mostly use fotor simply because it has the most variety of filters and pretty much all I need to edit with.

    What are the chances of getting a 1020?

    I bought myself a 920 on a monthly contract just after Christmas this year and love it to bits. I have ditched my old camera in favour of using my mobile phone for the main camera I use. However with the 1020's much better camera I would really like to change. Does anyone have experience of...

    Coloud Pop Nokia Headphones

    POP's arrived in this mornings post which was a lot faster from abroad than some UK generated post takes! Not tried them with a phone call yet, but I can say for definite that on my Nokia 920 they work with the music player - WITHOUT the adaptor - on play, pause, skip forward a track, skip back...

    Coloud Pop Nokia Headphones

    I have a set of Coloud POP'c on order - should be coming this week - direct from Coloud. I got in touch with them before ordering and asked if they would work with the N920 and the very kind lady who replied offered to send me free of charge an adaptor which may permit them to fully work. I...

    Zound Coloud Headphones

    Coloud Headphones VERY impressed with their website! Fantastic range of colour combinations, tangle free cabling, unique cable clip and cheaper than buying them from Amazon UK with a decent 5-7 days delivery included in the price. I just bought a pair of "The Pop" Earphones in orange/yellow. Up...

    a-JAYS Five to launch end of August

    I was just looking at these as I'd like some tangle free earphones with working controls and a mic. Heck of a pricey deal though. By the time you add shipping and tax, for a UK delivery its 94.99 Euros (where's the Euro symbol on my keyboard!!). Anyway, that's ?81.82 in proper money. Sure...

    Locking away personal info

    Is there a way to lock away under password certain info on my Nokia 920? I already have a password enabled on wake-up, and I want to keep a record somewhere of certain passwords and account details to things like my bank, and shop accounts It just doesn't feel safe having them as a notebook...

    Lumia 520 blue shell case

    These look like they're worth a try though: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Silicone-Rubber-Sleeve-ORANGE-YELLOW/dp/B00DC49DZ4/ref=pd_sim_sbs_ce_7?tag=hawk-future-21&ascsubtag=UUwpUvbUpU2039545 And I like the look of this. Wonder if its a silicone case or the actual cover...

    Lumia 520 blue shell case

    I bought my two sons a 520 from Carphone Warehouse a few weeks ago. I bought them with the white cases (black is so "meh") and then bought the red and yellow covers on Amazon UK. I looked everywhere to buy the blue covers but so far haven't found them available anywhere.
