You've noticed we cover system app updates regularly here with manufacturers releasing updates that alter specific features on a particular Windows Phone. It can be difficult to keep up with the number of system apps Nokia updates with its Lumia family of products. Cue LUMIA pusher, which will enable you to check to see if you have the latest versions.
The likes of Nokia account, accessories and feedback to Nokia aren't listed on the Windows Phone Store (without a deep link). This app solves that issue by bundling all of them together in an accessible list with more convenient access to the store. Selecting each entry will take the user to the store and checks can be performed to see if an update is available. Alternatively, you can always check our feed and use our QR codes, etc.
So which Lumia Windows Phones are supported? If you own a Lumia 520, 620, 720, 820 or 920 you're in luck. You can download LUMIA pusher for free from the Windows Phone Store. Thanks, Giovanni, for the tip!

Check to see if you have up-to-date Nokia system apps with LUMIA pusher
Won't let me download now, greyed out!! Lumia 720,
Installed this yesterday, and today I got the 1308 firmware update. Nice.:)
Whoa! That's what I'm waiting for!
[UPDATE] The text is much harder to read when using the light theme! I can barely read it! Ouch!
Great idea! I only needed 1 update but without this app I wouldn't have known;)
How about an app update pusher?
Great idea. Good work Nokia. My wife and I get updates at different times, sometimes days. This way I can install the on both when I see them on one.
Just realized that I have to click through the whole list one by one. Now only if this was automated, that would be great.
Love this app. It doesn't work on the light theme on my 920. Changed to dark theme and it worked great.
Installed on my Lumia 822 and seems to work fine.
This is great
Damn, Nokia only....
Wait, I do have a 920...
LMAO!!!
LOL
I have a Lumia 810 and downloaded the Lumia storage check but the app does not work :'(
I believe we need an updated firmware before the storage check will work on our 810's. Hopefully Nokia and T-Mobile will work this out.
Yes, finally found that Storage Check app, but doesn't work either on my Lumia 820.
Make sure you're on the latest OS version. I had to manually go into the settings to tell my phone (820) to update. The storage check was added in that update, not from the store.
What carrier? I am waiting for my 1308 here in the U.S. on AT&T.
I'm on AT&T and have the 920 and I've had the 1308 for nearly a month! I just got the reviesed version of that 1316 that fixed the crappy network connection issues. I had been having to restart the phone to get the data to connect!
Yeah, does not work on my 810 either, obviously @_@ hahah. +1 to the new firmware requirement. Will continue using Shrink Storage app until then. Hope T-Mo will deliver at least on the update front o.O
Seems to work fine on my Lumia 810.
Downloaded. Works like a charm on 920. Updated my extras+info for me. If only there was an OS wide way to check for updates to installed apps...
Well, the system checks automatically! Once a day normally.
Maybe it doesnt work for everyone, but it should...just wait one day or two, and you will see the update on your Store tile!
Its also good to wait a bit after a new update arrived. Maybe there are some bugs. I always read online before i install updates. saved my life sometimes....
HAHAHAHA!!!
Who do people use so little patience? Do what you do, updates will find you by themselves, no?

Regardless of checking automatically (any OS does), there should have an option to check for updates manually. I came from Android a while ago and it had it. If you know that some app was updated on the store, you don't have to wait a day for it. Besides, even the automatic update from WP doesn't work as it should. Some people wait days and never get a update notification.
Well... my Lumia 920 haven't informed about any updates in Store for about 3 months now...
If your phone setting [region], is outside of US, the updates can take a while before it reaches your local store.
Do you have the 1308 firmware update installed?
Does this also check for the 822? Or were you referring to the series numbers? I saw this app last night. Might check it out now.
It does.
