Anyway, noticed docs to go is missing, and not sure about usefulness of Android player link. I'm on the beta and it now opens without access to any controls.06-07-12 06:00 PMLike 0 -
And anyway, this is a sexier interface
Oh, and it only costs the equivalent of 6 minutes of minimum wage time. IMO, the app is definitely worth 6 minutes (although I hope you're getting paid enough that it's more like 2, maybe 3 minutes). To put it in perspective, you probably spent a minute or two just posting thatInnovatology likes this.06-07-12 06:01 PMLike 1 - I was thinking the other day it would be good to have all the stock apps in one place, but I also like having them in groupings with like apps in folders.

Actually quite a few of these are undocumented, but they've mostly been fairly common sense commands.06-07-12 06:04 PMLike 0 -

For things like DocsToGo, you'll want to invoke file://Last edited by xsacha; 06-07-12 at 08:19 PM.

I was only aware of https://bdsc.webapps.blackberry.com/...or_invoke.html
Edit: the bridge:/// ones are new to me (I was using 127.0.0.1:178) so I'll update the app to use those instead, but the rest I had (except hotspot and corp-http and at&t; what's the AT&T one for?).
I know about invoking file:/// (maybe I should add that one back, I took it out because I thought it might cause some confusion with bbfiles), but in order to have it launch docs to go there'd need to be a file for it to link to, wouldn't there?Last edited by SCrid2000; 06-07-12 at 08:33 PM.

No, the icon is from OS7.
There's no icon for the video camera in the stock PlayBook os, you have to launch the camera and switch to video. that's one of the cool things about the app.06-07-12 10:53 PMLike 0 - Oh my, I wasn't aware of this Thank you Sacha.

O cool. yea I hate that I have to launch the camera and switch to video. That's very cool to have a camcorder icon shortcut.

- Just submitted an update to App World that has updated Bridge launchers, Bridge SMS (won't work until RIM pushes out a bridge update), the file:/// browser, and a checkbox that lets you choose to either have App Drawer stay open in the background or close itself when you launch an app.06-08-12 05:04 PMLike 0

Still, I'm sure some people will find it very useful, if you don't want it, don't use it. No need to insult the app.06-09-12 09:00 AMLike 0
