Thread: QuickLaunch Updated to v2.21.4

We have some more good new on the application front today. QuickLaunch made by Nikkisoft, has just been updated to v2.21.4, and its about time!

QuickLaunch is an app that allows you to setup an unlimited number shortcuts to various functions such as Websites, Email, SMS and PIN addresses, Phone numbers, 3rd Party Apps, Videos, Images, Audio files, Screen Capture, Device Info, Weather, Bluetooth and WiFi Toggle, Camera and much more! In addition to these you can also launch Blackberry Options, Calculator, Calendar, Tasks and even the App Switcher. Configure a convenience key to activate QuickLaunch and when pushed a menu will pop up showing a scrollable list of your configured actions. QuickLaunch, which might I add, was voted best productivity application of 2009.

This app is one that I personally do not think I could live without. If you are a current QuickLaunch owner or you are considering buying QL, make sure you check out the feature list added in our forums.

I don't think this is available yet. MobiHand Powered Stores still send the 2.21.2 version. At least my account is still showing the last version I updated to

Mine shows that too. But on the main page it says "v2.10 to 2.21.4"

Look in BBOS Store.

:yo: I was wanting to purchas Quick Launch but I am not sure if it is right tool for my BlackBerry 8900 can someone help me out let me know if its a good tool & can it be transferred over to the 9700 if I purchas new BlackBerry in few months.
Thank You,
John Stephens

Quick Launch is a fantastic tool, and yes, when you get a new BB, you can transfer it to the new phone. All you need to do is update your pin number in BBOS store.

I still don't see the new version on mobihand....?

Unable to see new upgrade on Mobihand as well.. How do we go about upgrading? Hope current users get the upgrade free.

Not sure. QL posted that they are upto .4 but I can not downloading it either. I wonder what is up.

I think that is for 9700??? not for ST
