iPhoneHome 0.8

I was excited to see this app in the Installer! I used iPhoneHome everyday when I was on 1.1.1! I actually emailed the developer of this app before I upgraded to 1.1.4 asking him if he was going to update his app so that it would work with 1.1.3 and above (that is how much I loved it!!). He had emailed me back saying he was in the process of upgrading it. So, I guess today is the day! I tested it and it works great! It also has a slightly new look. The icon is now next to the app instead of above it. If you are looking for a simple app to change the double-tap shortcut of your Home Button, I would definitely suggest this app! iPhoneHome is available through the Ste Packaging source.

There is an update to iPhoneHome in the Installer.app…available in the Ste Packaging source. The update now allows to you pick from all five options in the stock Phone app on your iPhone…iPhone Favorites (which was actually an option in the previous version), Phone Recents, Phone Contacts, Phone Keypad and Voicemail. Here are the screenshots:

There has been an update to iPhoneHome in the Installer.app through the Ste Packaging source. The update to iPhoneHome added exactly what I hoped it would and more!! You can now choose to set the double tap of your Home button to Springboard Home, iPhone Favorites and iPod – in addition to all of the options before the update. If you watched our most recent iPhone101 podcast, you know that iPhoneHome was my 3rd party app pick of the week. The only thing I thought it was missing was the ability to choose your iPhone Favorites as an option…but, not any more!! YAY! Great update! Here are the screenshots:

New App – iPhoneHome

iPhoneHome is a new app in the Installer.app through the Ste Packaging source. This is an app that allows you to change the double tap feature of your home button. In the Settings on your iPhone under general there is a setting for your home button…you are given three option to change it to on a stock iPhone; Home, Phone Favorites and iPod. iPhoneHome allows you to change the double tap feature to any app on your iPhone or even a phone number or blank email. When you open the app you get a screen that has two options Change App and Save & Quit. Just tap Change App and it will bring up a scroll wheel of all the apps on your iPhone. Just tap on the app your would like to set as your double tap and tap Save & Quit. Your iPhone will reset and now when you double tap the home button it will take you to the app you selected. Totally Sweet!! One issue I have found is that Favorites is not an option in iPhoneHome which means if you would like to switch it back to your favorites you will have to go into your Settings on your iPhone and switch it back. Also, if you uninstall the app it will keep the double tap that you set with the app and you will have to go into your Settings and change it back as well. Overall, a really awesome app. Here are the screenshots:
