Remember back when we mentioned that the Ovi Store has begun to allow you to re-download your Apps ? Well Nokia’s finally gone on record to officially state that the Ovi Store, now supports re-downloading your Premium Content from the Ovi Store.
“I’m pleased to share the news that we’ve made redownloading of premium content available for Store users. Redownloading is as simple as it sounds – it lets Ovi Store users, who previously purchased and downloaded content to their device, to redownload, recover, and restore the content in the event that something happens to it. Think of it as content insurance.”
Of course to allow this ‘feature’ to happen you need to be on the Latest v1.05 of the Ovi Store application.
With this latest Store release, we’ve added a simple way for you to restore content that you purchased and downloaded through Store to your device. We take very seriously the fulfillment of content that is acquired through the Store, and while we can’t prevent certain events that may cause damage or the loss of content, we can make it easier for you to re-acquire it.
As the tutorial explains, if you use the Store through our mobile client application, you’ll be required to upgrade to the newest version on S60 devices—look for version 1.5(387) or higher—and on Series 40 devices—look for version 1.6.1 or higher—to take advantage of redownloading. The latest version of Ovi store for S60 devices is rolling out now while the Series 40 version will begin rolling out at the end of this week. If you receive a prompt to update your client, please accept it!
And regardless of how you shop the Store, we will honor purchases made before this new version, so if you purchased the BlockGO game in August and it didn’t download properly, give it another shot by visiting the My Stuff section of the store.
And most importantly, they’ve finally fixed the Ovi Store Search feature, so you can actually find things that you were looking for now. About freakkin time !
Here’s a short video that should explain how the Re-Downloads work :
