Useful Switchers

Amazingly useful. I love it, but, if possible could you add a function that would allow us to switch between power profiles in power manager? If not I understand. Thanks!

Thanks. I will make it in one of next versions. Only this feature and custom order and display will be paid for registered version (probably, $0.99). All today features will be free too.

Great App... Use it all the time.

Thank you :)

I love this app and use it frequently. One other toggle that would benefit me tremendously would be the ability to turn caller id on and off. There are circumstances for work where I prefer to block my caller id, and I hate having to drill down through all the menu options to get to it.

Either way, keep up the good work!

I decided to give this a try again, Very nice, few suggestions, pointers:

Icons at the bottom are a little too small.

I know the translucent glass window effect is cool, but you could do so much more if you made it full screen. For example, why not make a grid of toggle buttons with icons rather than having to scroll? You've already got the icons, you could just create two columns (possibly with an exception at top or bottom) and fit all your settings on one screen with no scroll, and then everything is there in one place. Overall, very nice, we'll see if this ends up replacing aSettings as my toggle program.

Another Thought:
I loved the app Toggle Settings until the dev made it all complicated and flashy. I don't need flash, I just want a simple set of settings shortcuts. Anything that approaches the complexity of the default settings menu stops being a "shortcut" and starts being redundant. You've got a good level where you're at, keep that in mind if you are considering adding new features.

I tried this before and thought it was pretty good, though I use aSettings for one reason. The slider for brightness is on the front page. Having to click the app and then click a second time to reach the slider, is an extra step I don't like. Kinda moot though since I have been using fast bright lately.

Oh, one more thing, if you want to be super extra cool, find a way to add a shortcut to Useful Switchers on the notification bar. It would be great to not have to return to the home screen to get to this app.

If the dev wants to be super, super, super cool, have it switch my laundry from the washer to the dryer. :) jk - kinda.

Is this app still available? I could not find it in Android Market Place. Is it under a new name perhaps?

Not sure if it is still available, but here is the author's site
maybe you can contact him and see what the status is.

I had the software at one time but the trial expired and I dont know if it emerged as a new named app.
