Stranded by the volcanic ash? Trapped in blighty and cursing the heavenly dust? Now you can track it with a free app for Nokia phones, available now on the Ovi Store.

It might’ve grounded planes, coated cars and kept the nation’s mind off the looming election, but until now the ash cloud had stayed clear of our gadgets. Until it invaded Nokia’s Ovi Store that is. A new travel app  gives you the latest news on airline delays caused by the Icelandic ash-chucker, and best of all it’s free.

Simply dubbed Ash Cloud, it’s available now at the Nokia Ovi Store, and packs in a second-by-second needs feed from the National Air Traffic Services – they’re the peeps responsible for shutting our nation’s transport hubs at the faintest whiff of skydust.

It’ll work on almost all Nokia smartphones, so if you’re one of the millions packing the Big N’s kit, and anxiously awaiting some cheery transport news, download it now.
