Proswitcher is a new (Free) task manager very similar to the PalmOS card manager. Proswitcher is much more functional than MultiFl0w since you can actually close applications when in the card interface. Plus lots of configuration options as far as activation.

Add Index of /repo to download the package.

This was an awesome find, Jerry! And it gives you enough setup options so that launching it doesn't interfere with launching any of the other cool j/b apps I have installed (swipe sideways for SBSettings, swipe down for qTweeter, tap/hold for whatever the camera one is called). So far it works very smoothly!

Do you need to have Backgrounder for it?

You don't necessarily need backgrounder, but it makes more sense if you are running background apps.

I just got this app.... COOL! I watched the vid... shows many apps... I can only get 3 default apps to stick in there and stay.... nothing else... even if I have nothing running and try echofon.... it will just vanish in proswitcher window.... any advice?

Just so its clear.... no apps except default apps will stay in there..... not even iphone store apps.... if I turn off default apps in settings... I get nothing to stick at all....HELP!!!!

Thanks!

Are you running backgrounder? Also, have you marked the app to run in the background (pressing and holding the home button within the app)?

Thanks for the quick response! No, I am not running Backgrounder and no I have not done the press and hold on the home button... do I need too? or is that just for backgrounder...

I have successfully put in MAIL and PHONE and they stay.... but the only third app I can get to stick is SOME default apps..

What exactly am I doing wrong here?

You need to install Backgrounder. This should have been obvious from the description.

I kind of wish i didn't have to enable an app individually via backgrounder, I miss how in Kirikae it just kept all apps only until i specifically quit them.

It wasn't obvious to me because in his response above, it was stated, "Not necessary".

I do appreciate the response as now with backgrounder loaded.... I can use ProSwitcher the way it's intended.

Thank you for you time and assistance!
