A new application is now available for download for the owners of Nokia’s Windows Phone 8-based Lumia handsets, namely App Highlights Social Beta, currently up to version 1.1.16.0.

One of the main features of the app is the possibility to come up with lists of applications for friends, followers and other owners of Lumia devices.

With App Highlights Social Beta, Lumia owners will be able to browse through a wide range of apps lists delivered by Nokia themselves, as well as by other users out there.

Furthermore, the software enables users to thank other people for their app lists, to create and share lists with Lumia owners, and to find celebrities and friends to follow them and learn more on their lists of apps.

Other features of App Highlights Social Beta 1.1.16.0 also include:
