Nokia Lumia Amber update rolling out worldwide

The Amber update is a Nokia exclusive update on top of the GDR2 software release from Microsoft for the Lumia range of Nokia phones.

The update has the following extra features:

  • Glance screen to check notifications, time and battery (not on 520 or 625)
  • Flip to silence
  • FM radio (not on 620)
  • Storage check tool
  • Data Sense (network dependent)
  • Double tap to wake the screen
  • Nokia smart camera
  • Updates to HERE suite of apps – now just download the updates to maps rather than the whole map again
  • Access to extra apps like Video Trimmer and Video Uploader
  • More camera settings

Here is a nice little video guide from Nokia showing how easy it is to update your software.
