Nokia Maps 2.0
It seems that the applications of maps are in full struggle and growth Today we learned about the new proposals for Google Maps, and for a while Apple's next steps have been rumored for some time However, we want to talk about another application in discord, that of the Finnish Nokia And, for a few days now, it has been possible to enjoy a new much more personal and configurable version of your tool known as Nokia Maps
With the alliance Nokia-Microsoft it has been necessary to adapt the Finnish brand's own tool to the operating system Windows Phone 7, being an exclusive application of the Nokia Lumia Now, with a new update, its possibilities are expanded, allowing you to configure and establish personalizations, enter own photos or share destinations among other things. All this included in the version 2.0 of this application.
The most visible change is undoubtedly the possibility of taking pictures of different places and making them public Thus, when looking for aaddress, monument or specific point on the map and access the menu Photos, it is possible to know thedifferent perspectives from other users who have passed through that place and have decided to photograph it.A good way to have a graphic memory when it comes to reaching that point and know that it is the right place, or a mere tool to discover the world that we surrounds from the eyes of others.
Another less visual novelty is the possibility of storing and synchronizing the user's favorite places. If you already have an account Nokia where you have stored places such as restaurants, bars, cafes, etc favourites, now Nokia Maps allows you to synchronize and display them on the screen to have themalways at hand So you don't have to reconfigure, search and store all these places.

A striking utility at the same time as interesting introduced in this version 2.0 of Nokia Maps is the possibility to set addresses on the terminal's main screenThis is a function already seen in the previous version, where it was possible to set a favorite destination But now a twist has been given. And it is that the destination is fixed along with the possible indications to reach it, either through a route on foot , in public transportation or using own vehicle Something that , without a doubt, it can be very useful to know the way to home from any point where we find ourselves.
To all this we must add the possibility of sharing routes, destinations and reviews with other users, adding a touch more social to this tool. The Nokia Maps application, in its version 2.0, is now available for your download for free completely free A good update that improves the possibilities of mobile phones Nokia Lumia, for now the only Windows Phone that can access this application.Nokia Maps is available in the Nokia Collection section of theWindows Phone Marketplace
