A few apps got updated last night bringing new features and bug fixes to their Windows Phone apps. Here are the standouts below.
Deezer – The official app for the streaming service recently got bumped up to version 2.4.1.0. The changelog – charmingly described as today’s specials – mentions improved lockscreen integration and a better algorithm for selecting musi9c based on what you like. We haven’t had a chance to run this yet so go give it a try and tell us what you think.
From the changelog –
Today’s specials:
– In free mode: even more music with radio channels inspired by the tracks you select.
– Display the photo of your favourite artist on your lock screen.
– Bug fixes.
Camera 360 Sight – Lumia Camera 5 may be a nice Camera app, but the Windows Phone store has loads of other camera apps that work on all Windows Phones. Camera 360 sight is a particular favourite of ours and has received a doozie of an update.
Version 1.1.2.0 has added a new storm filter park- for those who are fans of the original filters. There’s also a new “noise reduction” feature and Cortana integration for selfie (US Cortana only).
From the changelog –
Updated: 3.25
1. Added “Storm” filter pack, re-familiarize yourself with everything you know.
2. Added “Noise Reduction” function to adjustments.
3. Added Cortana English start command: Cortana,take a selfie.
4. Fixed bugs and optimized functions and user experience.
6sec – 6sec’s received a minor update bumping it up to version 2.4.3.0.
