Kirikae has recently released a new verison (svn.r43), which adds a favorites tab at the bottom.

So now you can double-click the home button at any time to pull up another app, and even have a section of favorite apps ready to pull up, even if you’re not running them.

Some users (myself being one of them) report a major bug, however. When clicking the Favorites tab it forces the phone to quit and restart in safe mode.

Some users on the app’s comment page allege this is from adding the iPod to the favorites, and removing it should remedy this issue, however, after trying it myself I can still report the same error keeps occurring.

I don’t mind beta testing software on occasion, but frankly, as it stands right now, this app has ceased to be functional.

My suggestion is, if you haven’t updated yet, don’t. Wait for the developer to remedy this issue, or do what I did, and remove it for now.

At least now I get my double click iPod controls back… for now… maybe.

    Hi there,

    As you, I was dissapointed to realize that using this app revokes the use of the ipod shortcut but I just found that those controls are still available!! To use it, simply re-double click the home button while still in Kirikae and the ipod option will appear. Hope it helps!
