Proswitcher HD Alpha is out! I didn't see another post here about it, wanted to make sure everybody knew. Even being an alpha it is fantastic.

SpringBoard unresponsive after install.

That's a bummer, working perfect here so far. You do have backgrounder installed right? Hope all the bugs get worked out soon.

It's working perfect here despite the alpha code. I dropped the other switcher (c- something). ProSwitcher HD rocks!

Yup, Backgrounder is installed.

Can post a snap shot of your Activator, Backgrounder, ProSwitcher and and any other settings that can be related to this issue.

Were you using an alternative one before installing this if so did you uninstall the other I know it may seem a redundant question But you never know.....

Now if we could get an iPad optimized categories I'd be gold

No redundancy here, just Proswitcher.

Thanks for the post Taheen.. ProswitcherHD works awesome as much as beta app can be, it's near flawless.

Circuitous did the job while proswitcher came after to the iPad but pro switcher will now be my native app switcher.

Do plan to keep circuitous because I like the instant shortcuts to all my favorite apps.

I li,e the graphics og Proswitcher but Circuitous seems more efficient, you can see all the app icons without having to scroll through. I also like that it shows the memory available.

I agree 100%. I use PS on my iPhone but I now prefer Circuitous on my iPad.

ProSwitcher is wonderful on the iPhone/iPod sized devices...

But wouldn't a more "Expose" like app switcher be better for a device of this size?

Take the "screenshot" ability of Proswitcher, and instead of large screen shot that you swipe left and right... have them appear on screen? Or would that be too resource intensive?

I've been thinking the same thing. When I heard Proswitcher was getting updated for the iPad, I imagined that they would make it like Expose. I don't even think it would be a huge deal to add that functionality to the program (but I'm no developer). It would make a big difference in usability, imo.

Not bad. I'll be keeping Circuitous but I'll be using Proswitcher HD as well. At times it's nice to see what each app is doing, what your browsing, etc and Proswitcher HD allows that.

Is anybody noticing the multitouch not working on the springboard a couple of times if there's no app running?

LOVE it! Goodbye Circuitous. Proswitcher is beautiful and much more natural and fluid than the alternatives. Thanks!

Same thing here, have to activate pro switcher a 2nd time to get the springboard back

Yup, that's why it's an ALPHA

I'm sure the Devs are working on that issue. Aside from that, Proswitcher HD is great.

Yea, I just want to make sure others are seeing this first so I don't have to hunt down the cause.

When I went to change rounding corners it crashed my spring board. Anyone else can verify?

Vegas, baby!
Sorry for the noobiness, but I have been using backgrounder and like it. Does this switcher need backgrounder installed, or is it a standalone backgrounder/switcher?

Thank you
Michael
