Nokia TV app hits Finland's Marketplace (but available everywhere)

By George Ponder

It would appear that the Nokia TV app has been released in the Windows Phone Marketplace. Finland's Windows Phone Marketplace that is.

Based on earlier information the Nokia TV app will tie into local television channels, have the ability to stream shows over wifi or data connection, and videos can be downloaded to the device for offline viewing.

Not having any hands on with the app, we'll defer to any of our reader's who have had a chance to download and try Nokia TV. It is our understanding the app isn't listed in the Nokia Collection just yet. You'll need to search by keyword, scroll down the list of New Apps or you could try this link (opens in new tab) to the Marketplace.  Again, Nokia TV is only available in Finland is available everywhere but features only Finnish TV.

After the break, check out a video walkthrough of Nokia TV that one of our readers tipped us on.  Sound off in the comments if you've tried Nokia TV and let us know what you think.

Via: Plaffo (opens in new tab); Thanks, Dario and Danil, for the tips!

  • Just download it and opened it up on my U.S. Nokia Lumia 900! All titles are in Finnish, but I was able to stream and watch a episode of Dog Whisperer in English! (With Finnish Subtitles)
  • Like what I see here. If Nokia will make win8 tablets and they get this app on those tablets - and if the tablets will have HDMI out... Then media center can rest in peace. This would totally solve the need for cable tv.
    Please Nokia make this happen.
  • Works from Italy too, nice app, but i dont umderstant the language :)
  • Watching some Finnish TV :D
  • Works in Canada lol. Watching Finnish Voice ;)
  • Nice little app to have, if only xfinity or HBO GO app, would be very nice for win pho
  • They need to put US broadcast networks on it then maybe I'd buy a Nokia. My DTV reception is shítty!
  • WooHoo!!! I'm installing now - thanks!!!
  • sweet! works in UK. was getting site of rubbish web based java fail tv show sites!! when do we get it with local channels?
  • I'm confused. So this app allows you to watch Finland's programs?
  • Yes.
  • I think Nokia will add more Programms soon for Europe and the US. Programs like BBC or CNN and the public programs.
  • Great app, though it needs some polishing (lagging a little at times). Love the feature that even when you re-launch the app, you can continue to watch the shows where you left them.
  • Scanned the qr code and app store says this is not available for my device...Lumia 900. Im in the US
  • Looks like they updated the new build so it will only run in Finland now.
