If you happen to be in possession of a Windows Phone smartphone (being one of the minority at the moment), then you might be interested to hear in a new app that opens up a new channel of entertainment on your handset itself – Crackle for Windows Phone. In a nutshell, it will basically allow you to watch an entire selection of quality movies as well as TV shows right there and then on your Windows Phone-powered handset without requiring you to fork out a single cent. Sounds too good to be true, doesn’t it?
First of all, here is a little primer. Crackle is a video streaming service, and it is also touted to be one of the fastest growing entertainment hubs in the world. It will carry the backing of Sony, allowing you to enjoy top notch films, TV series as well as original shows in their uncut glory right there and then on your handset. This free app can be downloaded from the Windows Phone Marketplace if you are interested. Good thing there are also parental controls which can be set so that your kids will not grow up faster than they should. Since the source is a Nokia-centric site, it makes perfect sense the the Nokia Lumia family has been “targeted” to carry this app.
