Nokia phones beta labs

After the sale of the Nokia mobile devices division to Microsoft, the website was renamed Lumia Beta Apps.

The applications provided by Beta Apps are in development, but are considered "mature" enough to be released in order to be tested by users worldwide.

After a period of time, an application either "graduated", meaning it is released as a final version, or is removed from the site and placed in an archive.

[4] On 13 August, Nokia employee Tommi Vilkamo announced the website's renovation and his role as the new Beta Labs manager on his blog.

[6] Originally the site was operated by Nokia but Microsoft moved the development to a more feedback-orientated design in August 2014 to allow more users to add their feedback rather than just Nokia-developers.
