Microsoft "to revive FM radio in Windows Phone 8 update"




The Verge is reporting that Microsoft will include an FM radio app in the next update for Windows Phone 8 expected in early summer.

FM radio was included in Windows Phone 7, but mysteriously disappeared from WP8.

It will work using the earphones as an antenna.

It's also reported that Nokia is planning new features for its Lumia range of WP8 devices, including a function to double-tap the screen to "wake up" the device from standby.

Nokia is also known to be planning a flip-to-silence the ringer option as well as a new method of choosing theme colours.

Still no leaks on a Notification Centre though.
