A new flavor of the LinkedIn application is now available for download for devices running under Microsoft’s Windows Phone operating system, namely version 1.5, with a nice range of enhancements packed inside.

The new app flavor will make it easier for users to stay connected with their professional world, courtesy of new features such as Live Tile and lock screen support.

Users can pin three Tile sizes to their Start Screens, and can also set the lock screen to show images from LinkedIn Today.

Furthermore, the app packs Speech recognition support, accessible through pressing and holding the Start button and offering support for commands such as “LinkedIn: Inbox” and “LinkedIn: New status.”

Furthermore, the new app release comes with support for more languages, including French, German, Chinese, and Spanish.
