    Was fooling with quick launch after upgrading to .428 and decided to check for an update and low and behold 2.18 showed up. Hugh update here is that a web search option is now added which will search from a lot of different sites.

    Great fix for verizon selling us out to bing. Now you dont even have to click the browser open and see the fact you can only use bing.

    Weird is when i clicked update again it said that 2.17 was available. Anyway, those with quick launch on the 9550 download and be saved!

    I believe 2.17 is the most current version for the 9550. 2.18 is only available for the 9700. At least that's what I have seen.

    only problem with it is that it uploads photos in png now and flickr wont take em. Not a big deal for me and Im sure it will be fixed but having the web search is a good trade off for now.

    Go into the quicklaunch program itself and then you will see a button to select to "Check for Updates". That is where you will find the latest update of 2.18. At least that worked for me. Give it a try.

    Can you post the direct download link in this thread? Just go to your browser and in your history where it gives you the Download/Cancel and hit the bb button and go to page address and copy it.

    I dont think NikkiSoft will mind since you need an activation code for it to work anyways so no one can steal it

    Found this quote on NikkiSoft - makers of QuickLaunch BlackBerry Shortcuts and App Launcher

    "Version 2.17.1
    Update currently only for 8900, 9000, 9700; other devices soon"

    I got my notice from the check for update button on QL options.

    Another great upgrade (at least ive never seen it on QL before) the toggle wifi and toggle bluetooth option. One press and it opens up the connection manager and turns on or off the bluetooth or wifi. Very nice add on.

    That's been there in prior versions, but if you are saying that there is now web search through QL, that would be a GREAT update.

    Yes. there is now a websearch application through Quicklaunch and it defaults to Google. In my opinion, it is also running faster than the normal browser application. Great Upgrade!!!!

    Received notice from app world for 2.17. After I updated I went in to quick launch and checked for any updates and 2.18 was available. I now have 2.18 on my Storm2 9550.

    I can only assume that they are rolling it out slow so that they do not over-load their servers or anything like that. If the thousands of QL users updated at once it would be quite a chaos over there. Be patient

    App World notified me that I have an update for QuickLaunch.

    Shows me that 2.17 is available. I start to upgrade and it gives me
    "QuickLaunch is not available for download from App World."

    What the ****?

    I have an 8900 running 2.12. Would love to get the upgrade.
    2.12 does not have the feature to "Check for Upgrade".

    I know everyone here has QuickLaunch ... can someone tell me where to get it? I would like to check it out since everyone says it's a must have.

    Thanks!

    I bought it in AppWorld a long time ago, but I would recommend going to the crackberry store for it QuickLaunch - The Swiss Army Knife of Blackberry Apps! - VOTED BEST PRODUCTIVITY APP OF 2009! - Personal Productivity BlackBerry Apps - Crackberry BlackBerry Apps Store!

    Just updated to 2.18. Out of curiosity I checked for updates again and just downloaded 2.18.2. I'm curious to see what's new - it mentioned bug fixes and configurable home screen hot key.

    Hello.

    I have 2.15.6 and whenever I go to update I get the message Error connecting to update server'. I have an email with a reminder about an update (for 2.1.6) and when I click the link and log on to my crackberry account QL isn't there as an app that I've bought (which I have). Any ideas anybody?
