This morning, Nokia Beta Labs gave us a fun little present in the form of Nokia Chat. This is an app that integrates with the phonebook in the form of a tab, and allows you to easily chat with your friends. Location information is also integrated into Nokia Chat, allowing you to send your location coordinates as a landmark to your friends. That way, you can use Nokia Chat to meet up with your friends.
Nokia Chat is the 3rd product to use the Nokia Account service, after Nokia SportsTracker and Files on Ovi, which launched last week. You’re also able to add your friends, and there’s a handy feature that allows you to invite your friends, right from within the application itself.
It’s a two-step install. If you’re not already using any application that uses the tabs in the phonebook, such as Gizmo, you’ll need to install this application first. Then, you can install the Nokia Chat application, which will put an icon in your menu, but you can also access it by opening your phonebook and clicking to the right.
Be sure to leave your feedback in the Beta Labs page, as that goes straight to the team involved, so they can be aware of your feature requests and bug reports.
