QuickLaunch 2.0 for 95xx is now available!
After quite a delay QL 2.0 for the Storm has finally been released. Faster, easier, more flexible, possessing more functionality than previous versions with an attractive, intuitive interface that doesn't require a manual to understand, 2.0 maintains it's must-have status.
New Features in 2.0:
. Backup / Restore to .txt file
No more lost menu configurations when upgrading your OS. The Menu List, Options and Activation Code can now be stored in a .txt on your SDCard and easily and reliably restored. Use this function for backup as QuickLaunch no longer 'supports' backup / restore via Desktop Manager.
. Built-in Screen Capture function
QuickLaunch now includes it's own screen capture capability generating a high quality image. After the image is taken you have the option of immediately emailing it.
. Integrated Google, Wikipedia and Dictionary.com search
Performing these searches are now quicker using QuickLaunch.
. Create Custom Submenus
Now you can organize your list in categories. You can even have submenus within submenus.
. More apps and functions to Add
In addition to the greater number of applications now supported by QL 2.0 there are now more 'standard' QL functions that you can add including:
New Appointment, Compose Email, Compose PIN, Compose SMS, New Contact,
and New Task.
. Display Current Temperature
You can now display your local temperature (or just about any other city in the world) and Hi/Lo forecast information in the title bar.
QuickLaunch does not run in the background and the weather information is retrieved only when you run QL.
2.0 weather was tested in 4 European countries, 2 asian countries, Australia, South Africa and the U.S and worked with all networks tested. However it is possible that someone might have a network configuration that is not immediately supported. If this is the case, find your carrier's APN (Access Point Name) via google or directly from your carrier and enter that information in home, options, advanced, tcp/ip. That should take care of almost all networks in the world. If you can't display weather after that, send me an email and I will determine your settings and get you set up.
. Yahoo Weather
This item is in the Add Application section and when selected will display weather info obtained from yahoo weather in your browser according your location setting in QL Options.
. Add Items Alphabetically
Enable this option to add menu items in alphabetical order
. Easier Setup with Installed Applications List
To add an app no longer requires you to first have the app running. Just pick from the list
. Volume Button Scrolling
You can now set the volume buttons to enable item by item scrolling up/down or page up/down. This is a great feature as you can now quickly navigate and launch items without touching the screen. It's kind of fun too.
. 3 Font sizes
Small, medium and large
. System Menu Integration
This option will allow you to add QL to the BlackBerry system menu a la 'CaptureIt'. An added bonus of this feature is that now QL can be run on top of some apps that it previously wasn't able to in the past such as Opera Mini.
. Improved Performance
Yes, it launches items noticeably faster than before.
. Compatible with OS .141, .148
...and other future OS release with the flicker issue.
Note: In the screenshots below you'll notice that QuickLaunch is docked to the side of the screen. With the .141/148 fix option enabled, your menu will be positioned slightly to the right or left depending on which side you've configured the menu to be on. If you like your menu to appear as it does in the images then I recommend using
Shrink-A-OS by

QL 2.0 has been submitted to RIM for inclusion in App World but they have a 4 -7 day approval time so customers who have purchased there will have to wait until it's approved. Sorry about that.
Many thanks to the beta testers for their hard work and support.
QL 2.0 is currently in beta for the 8900 and 9000 and those versions should be released by the weekend. Other devices will also begin beta testing this week.
