In light of the strategy announcement made by Nokia and Microsoft last week, we are writing to you today to assure you that our commitment to you and your work to develop innovative apps for Nokia devices remains as strong as ever. More on the Nokia change in our Stephen Elop interview from MWC 2011 this week. There’s also the promise of extended business development support. Membership is available – on an approved application basis – for individuals and companies, and regularly includes early access to APIs and SDKs, promotions in the Ovi Store and invitations to training events.Īs well as free devices, however, this new change will see free tech support on all Nokia technologies for the next three months (limited to ten tickets at most) and a free “user experience evaluation” of any apps developers have coded. Launchpad is Nokia’s mobile app development program, usually priced at €300 annually but currently free for the first year.
