Access Mobile Apps Faster With T9 Nav

16 Jun, 2008, 4:26 pm IST | tech2 News Staff | Mobile phones

Nuance Communications, supplier of speech, smart keypad and imaging solutions, has announced the availability of T9 Nav, a mobile discovery solution that provides a faster way to access all features, applications and content on a mobile device in just a few key presses.

The solution is available via download for consumer evaluation trials in India. T9 Nav will also be launching in the United States and Great Britain.

T9 Nav allows users to bypass button-driven menu systems, offering a fast, direct and repeatable way to access features and content on the phone. It adapts to user behaviour over time, reordering and predicting frequently searched terms using the industry leading, patented algorithms from T9/XT9 software.

Sunny Rao, General Manager, Nuance Communications - ASEAN and India said, "Nuance Mobile Solutions make it easier to control mobile devices, automate customer services, and access and discover even the most advanced mobile applications and content - regardless of technical know-how, location, environment or physical and literacy capabilities. As mobile phones get more complex, data storage capabilities are increasing. Users are often confused by complex menu navigation and cannot easily find and identify specific device features and mobile content to download – and many mobile carriers have identified that this is an obstacle to greater data service uptake and growth."

Designed to complement a device's existing look and feel, T9 Nav does not change how the user interface or menu areas on the phone look or perform, but works alongside these elements and by placing all menu areas just a couple of clicks away from the idle screen. For example, typing "m-a" (i.e., "3-2") from the home screen of the phone can take the user directly to a mapping application, a Madonna ringtone, a contact named "Mary" or any other content, contacts or device features beginning with those letters. T9 Nav adapts to user behavior over time to provide customized search results based on frequently accessed features and content.

To download this solution users are required to go to the site www.t9nav.com , and click "download". On doing so the web site will automatically launch a Nokia installer window where a Symbian S60 Third Edition handset user can click "install' and then finish the installation on his or her phone.
