You'll find all the extra applications Nokia has added to the Asha 201 under a menu icon called Apps. In here hide both the Nokia extras and anything you choose to install.

Actually, and perhaps a little confusingly, the My Apps section has some apps pre-installed, too.

The range of extras is quite predictable. There's an alarm clock, calculator, voice recorder, to do list manger, notes taker, countdown timer, stopwatch and gallery.

We rather like the calculator, which has been made easy to use in a non-touchscreen mobile phone by mapping functions onto the D-pad.

There are a couple of games onboard too - fairly standard fare, and some are trials rather than full versions, but they can be used to while away some time.

In the My Apps area there's a unit converter, the Opera Mini browser, size converter, world clock, and the Nokia Social app we used to access our Twitter and Facebook.
