XLaunch: Reborn

Erica Sadun | 9:12 pm | February 6, 2008 | Update, Applications, Software, iPod touch, iPhone

Did you miss XLaunch? I did. I kind of like the fact that it lets me find apps alphabetically. My home screens (plural) are getting to be a mess.

No, there’s no squeezing onto button bars or reordering (a surefire way to keep SpringBoard from launching properly, as I found to my testing dismay) but I kept in the double-tap trick and added a new one: badging. You can badge any app and it will last until you reboot or restart SpringBoard.

Version 0.21 is in the XLaunch folder, which has been moved back from the Deprecated folder. And, oh yeah, it should run properly on both the iPhone and iPod

Hi Erica. It’s my first comment here, and I know it’s out of place, but I hope you’ll indulge since I didn’t find a different way to write to you just in order to ask you to PLEASE update that beautiful app called “Listen”. It’s too useful to let it sink :)
Whatever you decide, great job. All you do for the community. Thanks a lot.

@maxoriano: if you read the “RIP Listen” post, you’ll know why that isn’t possible. Yes, I miss it too. It was a gas while it lasted…
