Great Work

Well worth getting. πŸ‘
I've been using this app for quite while now and it's become better and better. The quick actions are magic and I love being able to take my bookmarks / web clips off my springboard and still back them up. I'd love to see an 'option' to touch instead of swipe though, with some folders I lose valuable real estate because my giant thumb is in the way.

It's OK

Perhaps this is an app for the "power user". For me I found it was unable to open a lot of my favourite apps. There a lot of apps that come pre installed, that is their icons are there and a handy link lets you download them but if you don't want a lot of Twitter related apps or USA related services like me you will find yourself deleting a lot or all. Unfortunately a lot of my favourite apps do not have URL compatibility so I can't instal a link to "Fast Notes" my favourite note taking app. On the other hand it works extremely well as a speed dial device, something that Apple denies us and instant SMS/eMail links to selected contacts. It is a handy quick access to a favourite web site app too. You can create a very quick two step link to a browser of your choice and a site of your choice on that browser like Wikipedia. Press bookmarks drag to Wikipedia and it opens.
So all up a great very professional app. Well worth the money for speed dial alone but may not be aimed at your market. It' obviously no aimed at me.

Buy this!!

Launch Center Pro allows you to expand the functionality of your iPhone with almost limitless possibilities. Shortcuts, favorite apps, actions, etc. this is an app that can provide simple yet useful actions for the everyday user or more advanced actions for advanced users.
Should be on every iphone homescreen and this developer makes great apps and is well worth the app price. It's a bargain!!!

Great app

It's a shame apple don't allow proper access to brightness and ringer volume settings along with more system settings :( That would make this app a true one stop shop.

As it is, within apple limitations, this is a truly beautiful app.

Limited only by apple's control restrictions of iOS.

So near yet...

Bought this on the back of having tried the excellent Timer app but feel disappointed. Clearly lots of potential but is hamstrung for me by not being able to do simple things like just launch Safari, Mail etc. Instead you have to launch to a blank page or new email for example. I realise now that this is down to Apple's URL scheme but had I known beforehand, I wouldn't have bought. Also, I hoped to be able just to launch Sparrow but though the action is listed, it launches to compose new email instead. I had hoped to use this to quickly launch between my different email app inboxes but frustratingly it's no quicker because of these issues...

Ridiculously good speed-dialler

If you want a speed-dialler that let's you set up a folder containing a renamable and customisable button for each contact you choose to include - this is the app for you!
Not only can it speed dial, but it can speed text too. When speed texting it takes you into the proper message thread so you can see what's been said before.
It does lots of other stuff too but that's just a bonus.
Highly recommended for creating a customised and easy to use speed dialing experience. Did I mention its generally very fast too... unless your phone is seriously low on memory in which case, like everything else in iOS, it delays when opening. 5 stars.
Only criticism, the button icons on the top are the wrong way around as pointed out by another reviewer. This is weird, perhaps the developers are unfamiliar with iOS conventions.

Lots of potential

Great app but can't add basic iPhone settings etc. Would like to see a bit more functionality.

Many apps are not addable

Seems like this has potential, but many of my favorite apps do not show as addable to groups. This kind of defeats the purpose.

I created a navigation group only to find compass unavailable as an action.
I then created an office group, and found that my most used office app, Documents To Go, doesn't appear on the action list either?
Ok, I'll just add my favorite ebook reader, Megareader2…. DOH!!!!! It also does not appear on the list of addable apps.

Come on now.

I think I'd use this app a lot… if all my installed applications were addable to new groups. As is, this is only marginally usable.

With a "featured" app section that is about as long as my installed app list, I get the feeling that I paid a high price for a launcher app that is just trying be an advertising platform rather than the utility I've paid for. If you are just going to try and sell us stuff the app should be free.

Awesome

This app does everything that it sets out to do but it is bound by the limitations of iOS. That is why there are not any wifi or Bluetooth toggles. Apple placed this restriction. Access to these functions used to be there but Apple removed it some time ago. Also not all apps support URL schemes such as WhatsApp. This is not the fault of the AppCubby devs so giving them poor reviews based on this is pretty unfair because it is not laziness on their part it is the fault of the non-compliant apps you have installed on your phone. Pester the developers of the apps you want to see included to add a URL scheme.

This app has worked perfectly for me from day 1 so if things are crashing that must be a fault with your phone not Launch Centre. Try fixing it before leaving a critical review. If you did a bit of research before buying the app lime I did you would see from the website exactly what the app can and can't do before you "waste your Β£2" and can't get a refund.

This app is excellent. It supports most of the apps I have on my phone and is very stable. It has pride of place in the centre of my dock.
