XLaunch Update

Erica Sadun | 6:48 pm | April 28, 2008 | Feature Requests, 2.0, Update, Applications, iPod touch, Software, iPhone

The new 2.0 SDK version of XLaunch combines all the features you use and love in the 1.1.4 version plus several new options. I’m pleased that I was able to upgrade the application without losing features along the way–and especially happy that I was able to merge MakeItMine and Banner in without destroying the simple interface.

You can still launch webclips and badge apps, and assign applications to the home key for double-taps. You can still browse in both table or coverflow modes.

Now you can also set carrier text and the banner text via the Customize options. And I’m considering adding other customization features there as well. If you have any other suggestions or feature requests, please speak up! Now’s the time to jump in while the design remains fluid.

Is it possible to add a feature where you can have more icons on the dock like Customize did before they went 2.0?

Is there any way you could add a feature that, when you hold the iphone to a piece of music, it tells you what that song is? :o)

please consider this idea:

1. People have passwords on their phones = takes 4 clicks and a slide to log in.
2. The mp3 progress horizontal bar stinks anyway for tracks longer than 4 minutes. I listen to 50 minute tracks mainly (lectures)

3. The (stock) Double-Click Home Button when Iphone is “locked” allows you to:
a. adjust the volume
b. go to the next or previous track

However, It Does NOT allow you to change the track progress.

I request someone invent a digital touch round wheel to adjust the track progress which appears by double clicking the home button on the iphone (in addition to the current ipod control features that pop up.

Thoughts?”

Please provide documentation on “Badge It”. What happens when you badge an app, and why would you want to do it? I don’t see anything happen when I badge an app.

thanks

Hey Erica,
I’ve just updated my 1st Gen phone to 2.0 and I was wondering if you have MIM available for this firmware? (or a current version of xlaunch?)

Thanks!

Hey Erica,
I appreciate all you’ve done for the iphone/ipod touch. Your apps are very useful and i constantly use XLaunch. If it’s a still in progress i would like to send you some photoshop images of what i think would be a great addition to this app. Thanks

I loved this app (pre 2.0+), and am sad to see that it hasn’t been released yet. :-( Is there any progress that you can mention? I like the idea of including banner and MIM. Thanks for your time and all of your great apps!! :-)
