Version svn.r22
Provides a pop-up list that can be used to switch to/launch other applications without having to return to SpringBoard.
The beauty of this app is it works with (or without) Backgrounder. Simply double click and it pulls up a menu of running apps. Select from the list to switch.
If you have backgrounder installed (and if you ask me, you should), it runs both apps concurrently without quitting, if not, it simply switches to the other app and closes out of the one you’re in.
The one major draw back to this, however, is it takes control of your double press home option. For me, I’m losing iPod control at any time. Not a total deal breaker for me, frankly, so Kirikae has found a new home.
It’s got a great, simple interface (though I personally would prefer a smaller font size, but again, not a deal breaker) and it’s straightforward and easy to use. Not to mention, insanely convenient for those who multitask.
If you ever forget how to use it, simply open the app and select the “How to Use” option. Does it get any easier than that? I think not.

About Mark
I’ve read two reviews about Kirikae so far and they both make the crucial mistake of saying it completely hijacks the double home tap function. This isn’t true. Double tap once to bring up Kirikae….double tap again to bring up iPod controls (or the fabulous MusicControls app). Try it!
thanks mike i thought i lost my music controls
yes very true. Quadruple tap home icon=music controls .. VERY good.
The Android has advanced task manager which gives the list of running apps and all you have to do is check the box next to the apps and tell the task manager to close those selected apps.
Can Kirikae do that also.
