If you really find my app useful and fall in love with it, please don’t forget to rate it on Market. I recently received lots of 1 star rating during past two weeks. Now I am considering to unpublish the free version and make it complete paid app if the rating is still going like this for next few weeks. I really don’t understand why people behave so unreasonable when the app is free. On the other hand, my rating of the Smart Taskbar Pro key is doing very well with only 2 one star rating ever since.
I understand the ugly and confusing main setting UI might be the cause. So this time, I spent a week to study and design how to make it easy to navigate while still looking good. I hope I can change the poor rating trend with this update.
Also, I need to apologize to some users that I broke my promise to bring back topbar option in this update. I will put it back next week.
V1.1.0
Modified:
(1) Redesigned main setting window (Easier and more logical to navigate)
(2) Moved help, about, change log to option menu (Menu shown by pressing menu key)

Sure would love it if it had a way to put your own icons in app.

Hi!
Smart Taskbar is a very vey good software.
It would be great if I can assign the Taskbar to home button if I click once. Then click again to go to real home screen.
cheers!

Hi,
First of all I would like to thank you for truly the best launcher in the market! I am possibly the biggest fan of your work and just went pro the other day. I almost cried with joys when I saw the “edit” option on long press of app icon for easy labeling. I also absolutely love the custom shortcuts.
My only issue at the moment is that smart taskbar does not start automatically if I reboot phone and each time after reboot I lose my widgets. The error is “something went wrong previously deleted widget?” I have rebooted many times but this problem won’t go away.
Please help and keep up your great work!!

Did you use any 3rd party app to sd solution? Auto boot does’t work if it is moved to SD card. Widget also doesnt work on reboot if the app is moved to SDCard.

Thanks so much you were right! My apps2sd had automatically installed the pro version on SD (without me knowing) and moving it to the phone solved my problems. Anothe quick little problem is that on bootup the apps that are on the SD show blank icons. If I force close and restart Smart Taskbar all icons show up. Is there something we can do to prevent this from happening. Its not a big deal but it sure helps to see all my icons for quick app switching (without having to read label)
Once again Smart Taskbar is the BEST!

I too have them same issue, would love help resolving it. Links to apps on SD show blank icons after reboot. I have an evo with large SD card but minimal internal memory. So moving many apps to sd is essential for evos. Pro version installed internally. Love the app, simply outstanding.

I did an update in 1.1.3 to address issue. Not sure is it fixed on your device now?

Hi, I recently found Smart Taskbar, and fell to love with it immediately. It fits exactly what I need. I can call it any time any where by labelling up to 25 most frequent apps per screen (icon size: small), in addition with 5 fixed quick launch spots. I have a little suggestion that to make the icon size of quick launch spots to be smaller, would you consider it? Also maybe it is perfect to add more switches in setting button. You may refer the other switch widget application. Thank you very much for this great tool!

i tried to put more quick launch before but ended up keep current design becasue anything more than 5 will make quick launch item too small to launch. I am trying something new now to solve this problem with slider. If it works very well , I will add it in next release.

hi, i just rated the pro version 5 stars on the market because this app is awesome. i just want to let you know about a few minor bugs (on mytouch 3g): 1) the task switcher tab never displays any apps if the running tasks only option is selected, 2) the timestamp (if that’s what it is) in the status bar shortcut is comically random, 3) app icons get lost sometimes, replaced with ones labeled “SD”.
