Anyone who consciously decides against a smartphone does not have to do without practical apps.These are the best applications for smart feature phones running KaiOS.Smart feature phones may still be a "fringe phenomenon" in this country, but classic feature phones with smart elements such as apps, WIFI and LTE are on the rise.We also owe this to the KaiOS operating system from KaiOS Technology, which is gradually conquering entry-level phones and senior cell phones.Elsewhere we have already introduced you to the special features and advantages of Smart Feature Phones, at this point I will present you the best apps and games for the Nokia 8110 (Shoplink), the Doro 7060 (Shoplink) or the Cat B35 (Shoplink) as well for phones with said KaiOS that will certainly appear in the next few months.Even if every owner of a new phone probably first looks at what is installed on it, the most important applications of a smart feature phone should be briefly mentioned.KaiOS comes with all kinds of programs.Thanks to the cooperation between KaiOS Technology and Google and other companies, there are also some prominent representatives.Usually pre-installed:If a manufacturer does not explicitly waive it, Google Assistant, Google Maps and YouTube are also available.The same applies to the store from which you get other apps.Important: Update the KaiOS of your smart feature phone under Settings -> Device -> Device information -> Software update to get the latest version of your operating system.This is necessary for many other apps, even a basic requirement.You may need an update so that social networks and messengers are available to you, for example.Virtually all currently available smart feature phones receive WhatsApp as a messenger.To get this, you may have to update your own phone.From the 3rd quarter of 2019, WhatsApp will be pre-installed on all mobile phones delivered with KaiOS.WhatsApp on a smart feature phone.(Photo: Sven Wernicke)The app may also be located in the store in the "Social" section.With my Nokia 8810 4G, an update gave me access to a few other apps, including Twitter and WhatsApp.The popular messenger is available in the store under "Social" if it is available for your phone.The same applies to Facebook.KaiOS Technology strives to install some applications out of the box.In future, WhatsApp will be available on all newly sold Smart Feature Phones.Too bad that pre-installed apps cannot be easily deleted.Nevertheless: WhatsApp in particular is a great asset for smart feature phones and therefore a recommendation.Messenger alternatives, on the other hand, are currently not available.If these are accessible via the web browser, you can – if you value it – try this detour.Either way, it is very difficult to use due to the lack of a touchscreen and the classic button operation.The range of useful tools for KaiOS is manageable, which is certainly due to the somewhat complex navigation using the control pad and buttons.But for everyday life you will also get some useful companions here."Weather".The name says it all, because the app gives you the weather.Use GPS to select your current location or enter a desired city directly.Hourly information and a 5-day forecast are not missing.Too bad the scrolling is very tiring."Sun Compass" is worthwhile for hikers who want to see the current direction.The constantly displayed ads are a bit annoying, but the app is free.Like all the tools available in the store, by the way."QR Reader": Since the camera apps of today's Smart Feature Phones do not recognize QR codes, you need this special application.There's advertising here too, otherwise it does a solid job.Todo is a really handy note-taking app that's inspired by Google Keep.Quickly create a todo list - it's quick and easy.It is unfortunate that there is no sharing function and the advertising is a bit annoying.As on the "big" smartphones with iOS and Android, games dominate on KaiOS-based Smart Feature Phones.The buttons can definitely prove to be an advantage in games, because you press the right buttons to move characters or perform actions.The puzzle hit "2048" works extremely well on small displays, so I would definitely recommend the app.Also nice is Brick Plunge, which is a cheeky Tetris clone.Something like that always works, just like "Retro Snake", which comes very close to the original "Snake" from the old Nokia cell phones.Speaking of classics: "Minesweeper" also made it on KaiOS with a good implementation.Endless runners in different shapes and colors seem to be particularly popular."Classic Dino Run" cheekily steals the minigame from Google Chrome, which you can play when you don't have an internet connection.Visually much prettier is the otherwise almost identical "The Dino King"."Subway Runner", "Astro Knot" and "Ninja Fall", "Tuk Tuk Go" and "3D Moto Race" follow the same notion.They are all well suited for a little game in between.You get a little more depth with "Stack Building", where you have to stack house parts quickly."Birdy" is a whimsical "Flappy Bird" copy, "Ludo Champ" is nothing more than "Human Annoyance"."Tank Wars" is based on "Space Invaders" and I personally like it a lot.A nice shoot'em'up is also "Guardians".And in "Ice Breaker" you have to navigate around ice floes.Finally, the number ball game “Fire Shots” is cool.The list could be longer, especially for games, but the game concepts are ultimately limited to simple operation with two or three buttons.You shouldn't expect graphically high-quality scenarios either.But you can always find a distracting game snack for the break.Are you using a smart feature phone with KaiOS?Which apps do you particularly like?Feel free to tell me in the comment section.Fresh daily at 5 p.m. in the mailboxChanges possible at any time via the subscription management -

QuidvisDon't get me wrong: you can of course easily and conveniently uninstall apps that you have installed yourself.That is not the problem.The situation is different for apps that KaiOS supplies directly.Similar to iOS (iPhone) and Android, the firmly integrated apps are also an integral part of the phone.You won't be able to remove them easily.I am not aware of any method."without further ado" is used here to euphemize "not at all".But the "I'm tired of bloatware 24/7 surveillance Android/iOS mafia and Zuckerberg blessings community" doesn't appreciate that at all.I have a Nokia 2720 Flip and am just getting to know it.Aside from being bigger than my old Nokia 2720, it's also a bit more uncomfortable to type into.For example: "Word suggestions" is definitely more uncomfortable than T9, because word parts of newly saved words come as a separate word suggestion.That's how I saved "nozzle".if I want to write "du", my phone automatically turns it into "dü";then the next suggestion is "Düse", then "TelKo", then only "you".And you have to click through all the words until you get to the right one... the old T9 always put the most commonly used variant first.Also stupid is that there are no emojis, and entering the punctuation marks is extremely inconvenient (at least two clicks for each punctuation mark, and then it goes back to the letters...) Even if you can of course write without them, emojis are very nice.Where can I get them?Where - in which folder - do I have to load them if I have found some, so that they also appear as insertable characters when writing?Otherwise: - Message threads for SMS is also very practical - but is there also a drafts folder - or are started SMS/other messages simply gone if you close them prematurely (they were then saved automatically on the old 2720)?– The folder structure (ringtones, background images, etc.) is not clear to me – What do I have to load where in order to be able to call it up later under Personalization?– I don't want a Kaios mail account – can I use my own mail from my cell phone?Questions over questions - but all in all I find it super practical that I didn't have to buy a smartphone with even more potential for questions :-DDD!Also practical: - You can use two SIM cards - You have an emergency call button that you hopefully never need - Connection to the computer is super easy.Overall I'm very satisfied!Just bought the Nokia 800 and I haven't been able to uninstall four annoying game apps yet.It was funny that other apps - including whatsapp - could be uninstalled.If you know the solution, please let us know.The advantage is actually that it is a dual SIM device, one 4G, the other 3G/2G, with BOTH receiving signals.Data connection can be switched off / to one of the SIM, send SMS and make calls.Runs on standby for over a week without recharging.Youtube, browser runs smooth/good over slow 2.4G WiFi.Camera rather mediocre with zoom, but usable for me.Q and barcode scanner and generator also good.Not bad for about 100 euros.I also bought a Nokia 800 and I'm constantly annoyed by this operating system.Lots of useless apps in the store, apps from Google Play don't work or am I doing something wrong?Total bad buy.Unfortunately, this scrap BS is not mentioned when you buy it.Google Play Store apps cannot work on KaiOS because KaiOS is a separate, independent operating system (it is historically based on Firefox OS).I can only agree.Corona app or Luca app, it doesn't workThe instructions for use that came with it are practically illegible.Where can I find useful instructions?Thanks for your answer.I bought the plaid today.Hello Sven !I bought the MyPhone because of 1) the better camera, 2) the larger display, 3) the USB-C port, 4) LTE.I'm pleasantly surprised by the system, but has a few minor quirks that bother me personally.There is the display of the two SIM cards on the screen, although this is already displayed in the bar at the top.I would have liked to have done without dual SIM.I would have preferred a mini-SIM instead of the 2 micro-SIM.What also annoys me is that you can't hide (hide) apps you don't need.Otherwise I'm pretty happy with the part so far.Mfg. GeriHi Gerald!Thanks for your comment.But isn't MyPhone exclusively an Android operating system?No Sven, KaiOS has that too.The exact name is: myPhone Up Smart LTE.I discovered it at A..... I just had to test it and will keep it.Kind regardsWhy should it be difficult to type messages "because of the classic key operation"?What a crap!On a T9 keyboard you can text without looking, with your left hand in your pocket, 10 times faster than on a silly touchscreen!And you still have one hand free and your eyes on the road.The eternally long battery life is a gift - that's exactly how a telecommunications device should be, no different!Unfortunately, the only catch is that there is no proper support for most messengers.No fault of the technology, but a pure lack of software.It's just annoying that the touchscreen dirt has prevailed - just because everyone is addicted to Facebook, TicToc, or something else.Bad technology for stupid people..I have the nokia 2720 flip at the beginning I was able to contact the assistant via voice calling since last week that no longer works, does anyone have an ideaUnfortunately I can't say anything about that now.Was there an update?Have you tried a reboot?Hello and good day, who can help, how can I take over the vaccination confirmation on the 2720Flip.Unfortunately, the shop has not yet offered an app that somehow offers the possibility similar to the CORONA WARN APP that exists on the market, or LUCA AND OTHER alternatives, we now have to buy an Android cell phone, just to save the code and carry it with us as proof .Who can help, unfortunately my request to "kaiOS" didn't work either.Please help.The QR code of the digital vaccination certificate can be converted into an image file using a scanner (or simply photographed) and saved on the KaiOS device without an app.If necessary, you can simply show the QR code as an image - it works.Got the CAT B35;Is there any way to get the digital vaccination card on your cell phone?MfG WolfI have a Nokia 2720 KaiOS.Is it possible to install the Luca app there?So far I haven't succeededThere is no app for KaiOS to install from the store, but you could try the web app.You can reach it in your browser at https://app.luca-app.de/webapp.That could work.Hello how can I install APK files on Kokia 2720 Flip (Kaios Operating System).When trying to install, it says: unknown not compatibleAPK files are intended for smartphones with Android operating system, but not for KaiOS.You cannot install APK files on your 2720 because it is a completely different operating system.The only thing missing on the Nokia 2720 Flip is Telegram.Unfortunately, I can't get the WEB version to run with the installed browser or the page doesn't even load.Hello, I want the luca app, but it doesn't work.I always get the message no device available.Hi.I bought the Nokia 6300 4g for my child as a starter phone and was told I could childproof it.Block apps and set it so that the Internet only runs on the WLAN at home.But unfortunately I can't find any information about this in the instructions, on the Internet and when setting in the menu there is no way either.Do you have an idea or was that a bad buy?So I'm afraid someone told you something wrong.At least I am currently not aware that KaiOS offers similar convenience when it comes to “childproofing” smartphones with Android or iOS.Bad buy is such a thing - ultimately the phone is quite limited in its possibilities, so there is not a large selection of apps and only limited possibilities for social media.Maybe your child doesn't need to restrict themselves?I'm thinking about getting a kaiOs phone, does anyone know if it offers a hotspot function?Yes, that is possible.With dual SIM you can also choose which SIM card you want to use to set up a hotspot.Practical I think.Unfortunately I can't find any information as to whether CovPass runs with KaiOs or what the current status is.I received no reply from the Robert Koch Institute.No, the CovPass app is not available for KaiOS.I almost thought so.It's a shame that you forget the people who don't want to or can't buy a new smartphone.Will the future new S-pushTAN app of various savings banks also work with the KaiOS system (e.g. with my Nokia 2720 Flip)?Unfortunately, this cannot be assumed.🙁Hello, is there an app for Kaios that can be synced with Google Notes?This is cumbersome via the web browser.RegardsUnfortunately, there is also no native app for Google Notes (ie Google Keep).You can actually be happy that this works in the browser - unfortunately that is not the rule.Hello, with my Nokia 8000 4G it is no longer possible to enter a name to be searched for in the contacts app.Also, I can't scroll through the names or navigate to the first 4 that appear.Is there any possibility that I can move around in the contacts again?Does the device have a maximum number of contacts it can handle?Thanks and greetings DirkI can't tell you exactly what's going on there.There shouldn't be a maximum limit.But have you changed any display settings, such as the font size?Sounds like it to me...I haven't changed anything in the settings.I haven't changed it in 6 months.I've just added quite a few new phone contacts in the past few weeks.The white bar under the green line, where the letters are entered to search for a contact, has been running for a long time (about 10 seconds), from left to right, until the letter input is fixed and the search can be started.I'll see that I get the phone entries backed up (via the app or Google account) and then possibly delete the contacts via "Cleanup" and upload them again.It was the same with my 6200 4G, oddly enough WhatsApp and facebook could be uninstalled very well and without problems.I found some smart apps for my 2720.But how do I get rid of the weird ads in some?Hello, I have a new Nokia 800 Tough.I found that I can't open docx, pdf or txt files there.Do I have to install something there?Where can I find this?Thanks!Subscribe to comments for this post as an RSS feedPlease be patient.We review your comment before it appears on the site.We delete spam comments, advertising and insults, especially if they contain links.Your email address will not be published.Required fields are marked with *Are you interested in one or more topics in our blog and don't want to miss a single post?No problem: just subscribe to our free newsletter and we will send you new posts automatically!You can either select all posts or just specific topics.Check your inbox or spam folder to confirm your subscription.Are you interested in one or more topics in our blog and don't want to miss any more posts?No problem: just subscribe to our free newsletter and we will send you new posts automatically!You can either select all posts or just certain topics.Check your inbox or spam folder to confirm your subscription.If you do not want to subscribe to our newsletter, you can alternatively read our posts in your feed reader.The following general feeds are available:You can also subscribe to individual topics:Select topics -
