Nokia’s Here Maps to power Samsung’s Tizen OS.

Here, Nokia’s mapping arm has revealed in a tweet that it will power rival Samsung’s Tizen OS. In a tweet today, Nokia has confirmed this saying,

We’re happy to power @TizenProject with maps and maps-related functionalities pic.twitter.com/nehJdVEuAc

The term maps-related functionalities in above tweet may mean that Here Maps may get integrated to the Tizen OS as the default map. Google doesn’t support smaller platforms with its apps as is the case with Windows phone and with, Samsung developing Tizen as the means to reduce dependability on Android, it is natural for Google to not support and Here ( Nokia ) to support it as a map maker :).
