Nokia updates Display + Touch and Extras + Info apps for Lumia line

It's been a busy twenty-four hours for Nokia today as they have released dual updates for their Display + Impact and Extras + Info system apps for their Windows Phone viii Lumias. The ii updates are now live in the store, simply are very fresh meaning it may take a brusk while before you can grab them.

Display + Touch, which controls the super sensitivity, Lumia Colour Profile (GDR2 simply), double tap to wake (GDR2 just) and the Glance features (GDR2 but) and more does have a change log, though we're not sure information technology'south up to date exactly. The update notes that it adds "support for quick style in Glance Settings" though nether ours, all we run across is the previous Off/Peek/Timed/E'er On options, and so we're unclear is this is refining the feature or we're just missing something.

Regardless, it'south always smart to take the latest version, which is at present version 1.6.2.23 of Display + Touch.

Too, the other large update is with Extras + Info. That update of grade is the large one for devices with GDR2 (OS build 10327 or later) on lath as it enables the much ballyhooed Telephone call + SMS Block feature, which nosotros covered in an earlier commodity. That addition, which was enabled by Microsoft'southward new API extension in GDR2, allows OEMs to create this feature on their devices and patently, Nokia was the first to curl it out on a g scale.

Even if you don't have GDR2, it might not hurt to have the latest, which is now version one.xi.4.101, since information technology does affect other organisation settings.
