I wanted to download the Vine app for Windows Phone, but I couldn’t find it in the app store when I browsed it on my Nokia.

I went to the app’s page on the app store where I saw this:

One of my Twitter peeps from Winnipeg, Len, commented that he was able to install it from the website. So I went back and noticed that there’s a “Download and Install Manually” link towards the bottom of the page, which will let you download the .XAP file directly.

So I emailed myself the link, opened it on my phone, and voila – Vine is now installed!

What’s the point of limiting apps by region if we can just manually download and install the file anyway? Weird.
