With an interface that is seamlessly integrated with the look of the BlackBerry OS, QuickLaunch will create shortcuts to most any application or function on your BlackBerry with ease and style. The menu can be displayed on top of virtually any screen so there is no more backing out out a program and navigating through folders to find icons. Quick easy access to what you want to do wherever you are!

QuickLaunch allows you to setup shortcuts to various functions such as Websites, Email, SMS and PIN addresses, Phone numbers, 3rd Party Apps, Videos, Images, Audio files, Device Info, Bluetooth Configuration, Camera, Video Camera, Delete your Call Logs, Manage Connections, Device Reset, Google and Wikipedia Search and other functions such as Blackberry Options, Calculator, Calendar, Event Log, Tasks, WiFi On/Off Toggle (Bold and Curve Versions) and more! Configure a convenience key to activate QuickLaunch and when pushed a menu will popup showing a scrollable list of your configured actions. The menu can be set to appear on the Right or Left side and can be shown on virtually any screen so you can perform any action without backing up and navigating through your homescreen and folders saving you time. Quick easy access to what you want to do wherever you are!

QuickLaunch does not run in the background taking up resources. QuickLaunch runs only when it’s opened allowing you to choose your previously configured shortcut, function or 3rd Party Application. Make your selection by highlighting the menu item you want and your off! QuickLaunch then exits until you run it again.

QuickLaunch 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.
Built-in Screen Capture function – QuickLaunch now includes its own screen capture capability generating a high quality image. After the image is taken you have the option of immediately emailing it.
Launch Media Explorer
Integrated Google, Wikipedia and Dictionary dot 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.
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 – Launches items noticeably faster than before.
