With the Nokia Lumia footprint increasing globally, Nokia is proud to deliver unique and exclusive app experiences via agreements with both applications developed by Nokia and some the world’s biggest names in consumer content. Exclusive content, iconic device design and other Nokia-only content such as Nokia Drive provides Nokia Lumia users with an enhanced smartphone experience. Nokia-only exclusivity periods vary by content provider.

“With exclusive apps from some of the world’s leading global, and most locally relevant brands, we are focused on making Nokia Lumia an outstanding smartphone experience for consumers,” said Marco Argenti, senior vice president, Developer Experience and Marketplace, Nokia. “We are collaborating with our partners to build and deliver first and exclusively on Nokia app experiences across key categories including news, sports, games, multi-cultural and kids and family, all of which are unique, fresh and fun,” he added.
