Hello!
A new version of Nokia Ovi Suite is now up for grabs. Go and get it from Nokia Beta Labs.

When working on this latest version, we’ve focused on improving the quality. As our main goal is to bring Nokia Ovi Suite onto a new level of reliability, we’ve now picked only a few select features to be added.

We’ve enhanced key parts of Nokia Ovi Suite to make sure they are easy and efficient to use. For example, updating your phone software and mobile apps takes place more easily and you can now update both in one go. What’s more, when you choose to download something from the Store through Nokia Ovi Suite, the download link is sent to your phone. You can then go on to download the selected item directly to your phone. This saves some of your valuable time and there’s no need to open a web browser on your desktop anymore.

Then there are the new additions. You can see the results of your latest sync in the Sync log view. The results include all the details that were added, updated or deleted during the sync, in addition to the information where each of these changes took place. Keeping track of your map downloads is now easier than before, too, as you can view your download queue by clicking Downloads in the Maps view. And, if you feel that sending text messages to groups is something you’ve been missing, you’ll probably be happy to know that creating contact groups is now possible in the Contacts view. Sending messages to all the members of a specific group is then simple to do in the Messaging view.

We’ve been busy getting Nokia Ovi Suite to work with greater reliability. Creating the connection between your phone and computer and syncing content between the two have been improved with critical fixes. You might also like to check out the fine-tuned playback of high-definition videos. Playing your videos with Nokia Ovi Suite is now smoother and nicer than ever before.

Any feedback on Nokia Ovi Suite is greatly appreciated, so if you’d like to share your ideas for improvement or describe what makes you happy, tell us what’s on your mind.
