Nokia Custom Dictionary released on BetaLabs

One common complaint with predictive text on most devices, was that you couldnt “Teach” it words fast enough, or that the predictive text just wasnt good enough.

Well to counter that, Nokia Betalabs just announced the new “Nokia Custom Dictionary” app.

Nokia Custom Dictionary does exactly that, and we’ve also given you the chance to import words from a text file. This means you can quickly “teach” your phone commonly used words or even create specific word lists to be shared among a like-minded community, for example in the medical domain.

The application is compatible with most S60v3 and S60v5 devices, but there’s a word of caution, as usual with a Beta app.

As with any beta launch, the application is not yet perfect. There are some known incompatibilities with some of the older S60 3rd edition devices. There might also be the odd functional or usability issue. We hope that with our enthusiastic Beta Labs community, we can uncover these teething problems together.

Remember to read the FAQ too.

Here’s a short video introduction to the app :
