Applications enhance the quality of a mobile phone and also make it handier to use. So that I have decided to share a collection of top 8 applications for Nokia Symbian 60 v5 operated phones like Nokia 5530, Nokia 5800, Nokia X6, Nokia N97 and Nokia N97 Mini. Check out below, you’ll love these applications:

1. 1. Best Profiles – You don’t want to bother changing profiles wherever you go ? Often it becomes a hassle and sometimes you may also forget to switch your mobile phone’s profile to Silent Mode when going to colleges or school ? So this is the app you need to install in your handset, because it lets you make your phone location conscious and time aware. Best profiles will by itself toggle between profiles at a particular period of time during the day, or when you reach a definite spot for example this app will automatically toggle the profile to Silent Mode when you reach your College or School. Moreover, Best Profiles also lets you to launch applications when a particular profile is activated or during certain hours of the day.

2. 2. S60 Tickr – Suppose you are busy reading some article on your phone and you receive a new SMS, this app will notify and let you know whether the incoming message is an important one or not, the ticker will hover on the screen when you get a new message or a new email. S60Tickr is available for free, you can download from here.
3. 3. Opera Mobile/Mini – The built-in webkit based browser of Nokia S60v5 phones are however good but it doesn’t have various features like multi tab support and even crashes accidentally. Opera Mobile/Mini is the best alternative that’s why most of the people uses it, have a loads of features a more touch friendly UI and moreover it is blazingly fast. Opera Mini is the same as Opera Mobile, except that Opera Mini is Java software while Opera Mobile is a native symbian web browsing software.

5. 5. Bright Light – Nearly all smartphones have a camera accompanying with a minimum single LED-flash to help snapping pictures in dim environments, same LED-flash can also function as a torch light with the help of Bright Light App which has a simple user interface containing two options mainly for toggling between On/Off. You can download this app from the OVI store in your Nokia handset
6. 6. Nokia Messaging – Nokia messaging app is the ultimate service/email client for Nokia handsets, while it supports kinect scrolling, capable of displaying emails in HTML and not to forget the push email feature. Except for this app is not capable of viewing emails in fullscreen. But this app is sure a handy one, you can download it from: email.nokia.com in your mobile browser
7. 7. Handy Taskman – Unfortunately, the task manager integrated in S60 smartphones is pretty limited. It does not display the amount of free RAM, processes running in the background and so other things. Handy Taskman is the best app where it shows the amount of free RAM, it also lets you to kill process or applications which might have stopped working. Handy Taskman also features a ‘Favorites’ tab where you can create a list of your regularly used applications so that you can access them quickly. The link for downloading is, here.
8. 8. Google Maps – Although Nokia handsets have OVI-maps pre-installed, but Google Maps is quite better then it because it gives a detailed map of your city and the layers and street view is the best feature of this app. You can download Google Maps by going to m.google.com from your mobile phone web browser.
