Not long after announcing its sale of mobile devices and business services to Microsoft, Nokia also announced to developers that by January 1, 2014, they will no longer be able to provide applications. Use or update existing applications in Nokia Store for two mobile operating systems, Symbian and MeeGo, and now the company has made this statement. This move is seen as a " cut off of the past " to focus Nokia's efforts on Windows Phone and the low-cost Asha line.

" With the business development opportunities on the Asha line and Windows Phone platform, we have reviewed the content of the company's development program to provide maximum support for our developers", Nokia wrote in a notice in October 2013. "And after reviewing, we decided to focus on supporting and investing in developing new content for our Asha line and Windows Phone platform." .

Symbian was once the center of Nokia's success. But because iOS and Android attacked so hard that Nokia encountered many difficulties, so it decided to give up Symbian and MeeGo to focus on Windows Phone. The Asha line, which has been around for many years, will continue to carry Nokia's efforts to dominate markets in attractive developing countries.
