Nokia N96 App Review – ExeMaster

Name: ExeMaster

Description: Auto-Start Manager

Summary: In the past week or so there have been a few applications that have many functions and it has been a long time before I have seen one that only does only one thing. ExeMaster is an application for your nokia n96 thats designed to only do one thing, and that is to control your applications. I know a few applications can do stuff like this but none can do it to the same extent. ExeMaster can let you chose how your applications open like whether it runs or runs in the backgroung or any other way. ExeMaster can save your chosen applications and let you activate and deactivate them very easily.

Overview: It’s really refreshing to see an application that can do more than what you expected. ExeMaster has lots of quality and works perfectly on the nokia n96 and could almost be called nessesary but that depends on the applications that you are running. ExeMaster isn’t a free application but it only cost $3.50 so its hardly a big problem but the application does have a 14 day trial that will let you use all it’s features. Read more

Nokia N96 App Review – EasyMap

Name: EasyMap

Description: GPS Map

Summary: Since google came out with its free maps there have been a good few competitors but they never seem to be able to beat Google Maps.EasyMap is another application based on openstreetmap map style and is know for its uasablity and speed. EasyMap uses your gps to find your location and displays the street maps of the local environment and show you the local services you mite need like trains and buses. EasyMap is built for quality and speed but the speed seems to be missing, but the quality of the application more than enough to get you to forget that.

Overview: Well EasyMap is a nice looking application but really lacks function, EasyMap only has the abiltiy to look a the map, no navigation and no search. With the lack of functions you would wonder why the creators want 13$ for it, but if you want to try out the demo then it will last 14 days and will let you see a few of the good points. Truthfully this application has no noticeable value, better to stick with google maps. Read more

Nokia N96 App Review – FExplorer Pro

Name: FExplorer Pro,

Description: Complete Phone Utility,

Summary: It seems like applications now a days applications are either going to have to have one great and unique feature or a whole bunch of other features. FExplorer Pro is the latest application from SBSH for the nokia n96 to act as a complete phone /utility tool. FExplorer Pro is at first a File Manager with a task manager, process manager, Image Viewer, screen capture tool, memory defragment and file editor. Also FExplorer Pro can give you information about your phone or your network and has a good few settings that make most features more customisable. Normally with applications like this one some of the features are a bit crap but all the features in this are top notch.

Overview: FExplorer Pro is pretty good I guess the problem I have with it is that its just a bit longer turn on or to modify in your own way. FExplorer Pro is really good as a file manager because its so compatible with so many file types. FExplorer Pro is not a free application but it only cost $10 and if your not sure you can download the 13 day trial. Read more

Description: Power Manager

Summary: With all the advances in technology its strange that batteries still don’t have enough charge the nokia n96 for more than a few days. The Lack of battery life in the nokia n96 is one of its biggest problems and for some it would be considered the only problem. BatterySaver is an application that can control your applications, gps, bluetooth, screensaver, backlight and the brightness to save more power and make your battery last longer. BatterySaver watches your battery level so that it can adjust the setting to make save more power when the battery is low.

Overview: In theory BatterySaver is a good application in practice its even better all the settings and conditions that you can set are just the settings you want.
