iphone-kirikae's Issues

Suggestion: Kirikae interface

Is it possible for you to change Kirikae's interface? I would like if 
Kirikae would pop up on the springboard after doubletaping, and it would 
be somewhat transparrent like the blue iPhone UI, and not flat like the 
current build. 

If you have no clue of what i'm talking about, i mean like the iPod 
controls when you doubletap while it plays in the background. Just a 
bigger pop-up with the "slide to quit" like the current build.

It would also be awesome if Kirikae is themeable.

SpringBoard no longer responds and requires respring

**********************************************************

iPhone/iPod Touch model: 3GS
Firmware Version: 3.01
Brief description of the problem:

Often when I have used Kirikae to switch between apps, and an app has been 
running for a while, 
spring board stops responding (e.g. either to a press of the home button, or to 
selection in 
Kirakae). 

A respring fixes the problem.

Not sure whether Kirikae is the precise cause, but this never happened before I 
installed Kirikae.



What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Start an app on backgrounder white-list
2. switch apps a few times with Kirikae
3. Wait a while - spring board stops responding eventually


Please provide any additional information below.

Enhancement suggestion

would be cool to make some drastic UI changes, at least as a configurable
option. my idea was to do something that behaves like Safari.app does, or
similar to WebOS on a Palm Pre. press+hold/double press to trigger Kirikae,
and have it give you minimized safari sized app windows, that you can thumb
through. or 4 panels, if you have more than 4 apps backgrounded, they would
be placed on the next page.

have kirikae take a snapshot of the screen of each app as you use it, and
use it for the tile to represent the app. pages through them, with a little
red X and the top right to close the app. first page would be your defined
favorites page.

see attached for an idea.. thoughts?

Kirikae activates itself when using home button to validate MultiIconMover changes

iPhone/iPod Touch model: iPhone 3GS
Firmware Version: 3.0
Brief description of the problem:

After installing MultiIconMover today, everytime I move a group of icon and
want to validate as written in the documentation, it does it (love this new
feature by the way), but opens the kirikae menu at the same time (which
should open only after a long press of home as I set it up this way). I
wanted to report this problem on iphone-tweaks project too, but did not
find the "issues" tab there, and the mailing list seems not very active.
Therefore I report this problem only here, but I am not quite sure if it is
more a kirikae or a MultiIconMover problem.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Start moving mode on home screen
2. Select some icons to move
3. Go to target page
4. Click home to validate
5. Enjoy the move of the icons with a bonus Task switcher window opening :)


Please provide any additional information below.
If needed, I am available to do more tests :)

All applications tab - combine kirikae and backgrounder - toggles tab - nav bar

another tab next to favorites that had all application listings would be 
awesome. So that you 
could switch between all apps.

Make backgrounder and kirikae one application and one download.

Maybe a toggles tab. Make something like sbsettings built into the shortcut. I 
hate sbsettings  
for it's small buttons but I like the easy toggle on off without leaving what 
you are doing

When it opens there is no top navigation bar. I think there should be one. But 
when you 
have the black task bar the black navigation bar comes up but when the grey 
taskbar is up 
then the normal blue navigation bar comes up

Feature request - single swipe app close

Again, I loved Kirikae BUT I find it counter intuitive that I have to swipe an 
app then click 
close to close it.  What I believe would work much better would to keep the 
swipe but 
remove the need to click close after, but this can be left in for the insecure. 
 Some 
implementations of this outside of simply removing the close button could be as 
follows. 
Have the app after being swiped become highlighted in red, thus indicating it 
has been flag 
to be closed.  The closing of this app could then be carried out in one of the 
two following 
methods: have the apps close when kirikae closes next (when an app is launched 
or the 
home button is pressed), or have the apps close after a time has passed (a 
timer could even 
appear where the close button once would appear and count down until the app 
will close).

Enable re-ordering of favorites and different list view

iPhone/iPod Touch model:iPhone 3G
Firmware Version:3.0
Brief description of the problem:

Since Kirikae is also a launcher (I'm thinking of it as a Stack replacement
actually) you could include the option to move the icons on the favorite
tab, so that the most used apps could be moved on top.

Besided that, you could enable a different view (smaller icons maybe) so
that is fits more apps in the favorite tab.

I'm including some screenshots so that it's more understandable.

Suggestion: Startup Apps

You are obviously a very talented programmer, perhaps even an Orange employee.  
Of you could add a 
feature to enable and disable apps starting automaticlly in the background on 
startup it would be incredible.    
Removing the mail.app and iPod.app from startup would be usefull, and being 
able to auto launch an app 
like Skype in the background on startup would be extreemly usefull.

Brief description of the problem:
If an app has been added to the Kirikae favorites list and after that
deleted from the iPhone/iPod because the user no longer uses it, that entry
from the Kirikae favorites list can't be deleted after the app is deleted
because it appears as an invalid entry in the .plist and the only way to do
this is to reinstall the app an remove it from Kirikae while the app is
installed and afterwards get rid of the app.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Add any app to the Kirikae favorites list
2. Delete the app after that from the device
3. Open the Kirikae favorites list just to see that there is an invalid entry


Please provide any additional information below.
It is really frustrating to have to loose your whole list by deleting the

Feature request: grid view

An optional grid view would be nice (like on the home screen). To close an 
app you could select "edit" and then an X could appear (also like home 
screen). And the current application gets for example a different background 
color and is always the first one.

This way you could even combine running apps with favorite apps on one 
screen. The first two rows are running apps, the second ones are favorites 
(separated by different colored background or some border etc.). Or three 
rows running apps to one row favorites. Maybe even with horizontal scrolling 
or page switching (like on the home screen) for more apps.

PS: Sorry if this isn't the right place for feature requests. Please let me 
know. Thanks! Great app!

Feature Loss after r81 upgrade

iPhone/iPod Touch model: iPhone 3g (But probably affecting all models)
Firmware Version: 3.0 (but probably affecting 3.0.1 and 3.1)

Brief description of the problem:

This sounds a lot like some of the other problems/requests dealing with
music controls, but it is different.
On the previous version (r41 I believe), if, when at the lockscreen, you
double tapped the home button (even with kirikae set to double-tap) the
ipod controls for the homescreen would still pop up. They would obviously
not when actually in any app or on the springboard, but as long as you were
on the lockscreen they would.
Now with the latest update, (r81) the ipod controls no longer pop up on the
lockscreen. I can't see any reason why someone would purposefully do this,
so I figure it a bug.


What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Upgrade to svn.r81
2.Set invocation to double tap home
3. Try opening ipod controls on lock screen.


Please provide any additional information below.
A work around would be of course to use another invocation method.
As a note, I was so happy when kirikae finally came out. I had gotten
hooked to the previous backgrounder :)
Thanks,
Kory

Feature: Option to not auto-background

This is to request a new feature. I would like for there to be a setting in 
kirikae to make it so 
even I I have Backgrounder installed, kirikae doesn't background programs when 
switching 
apps. For 95% of my apps, it's not useful to background them, and just wastes 
memory. 
Ideally, kirikae would preserve an app's existing backgound state, and also 
would respect 
Backgrounder's Always-enabled list and background those apps, but not 
background other 
apps. Thank you.

One thing that would be amazing is if you added brightness settings and wifi 
toggles to 
kirikae. If you're in the middle of a game currently you have to use 
backgrounder to go to the 
springboard or somewhere with the title bar enabled and do it with sbsettings. 
Also if you 
added memory cleaning to the mix you could fully replace sbsettings, at least 
for me.

Feature request - don't close kirikae after closing the current app

I love kirikae but I hate that the program closes when I close the current app. 
 What I would 
like to see instead is kirikae would make the springboard the current app, 
which is effectively 
what happens now but keep kirikae running so I can choose another running, or 
favorite, app 
to launch into instead if I so choose.

"Springboard" entry doesn't work

iPhone/iPod Touch model: iPhone 3GS
Firmware Version: 3.0
Brief description of the problem:

"Springboard" entry doesn't work.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. start an app
2. load Kirikae
3. select "Springboard" under "Other Applications"

Please provide any additional information below.

The entry's background color changes permanently to grey but nothing else
happens. Tapping the entry again changes nothing (no task switching,
background color stays grey). If you then select the active app (e.g.
flashlight) the iPhone switches to the springboard. If you select another
entry under "Other Applications" after "Springboard", it works as expected
(switching to that app).

Feature request - a method for implementing recent feature requests.

This isn't so much of a feature request as it is a method for implementing a 
number of 
feature requests I and a number of other users haves made.  The general layout 
of Kirikae 
would stay the some but 3 additions/changes would be made.

First, a check box would be added beside each app in th Active tab of Kirikae. 
 When check 
it would indicate the app is running, when unchecked it would indicate the app 
isn't running.  
This would be a simple way of starting and stopping apps.

Second, as an additional element of the check boxes, the Active tab would also 
contain 
recent apps.  These apps would show up in the other apps field, below running 
apps.  When 
an app is closed (unchecked) it would go below the running apps but, as it 
would be the 
most recently closed app, would be on top of the list of recent apps.  This 
list of recent apps 
and running but not active apps would limit itself to 6 (or a figure defined by 
the user) unless 
there are more running apps then 6. EG. 1 active app. 4 running but not active 
apps and 2 
recent apps. OR 1 active app and 8 running but not active apps and 0 recent 
apps. This 
keeps the list manageable and gets around a problem I don't want to go into.

The third feature is a method of controlling whether an app backgrounds by 
default or not.  
This would involve the addition of a tab in the corner of each apps field when 
running in the 
Active tab. This tab would appear much like a folded page corner in a book. 
 The presence 
of the tab on an app would indicate it will background by default. To change 
this property a 
user would swipe along an app, in the same way now used to reveal the app close 
button. 
This gesture would reveal an off on switch which would switch default 
backgrounding on and 
off.

I've uploaded a sketch of my thoughts to my flickr account and attached a link 
(I'm on my 
iPhone and can't upload to this post).

Brief description of the problem:

I would like to make a suggestion to reorder the menu based off which programs 
were past 
used. It seems the default apple apps are always at the top but this is 
actually not ideal 
since it means to get to backgrounded apps you always have to scroll. Perhaps 
putting the 
last used app at the top so that we can easily switch back and forth between 
apps?

Suggestion/Idea - Quicker Access to Favorites/Opened Apps

To the Official Developer(s), and anyone else who likes new ideas.

I love Kirikae. Its a great piece of software. Its a dream come true.
Accessing it and using it is a breeze... but what if it were even better?

Imagine going to access the Kirikae popup list (double tap/hold home).
Currently, 2 tabs at the bottom are "Active" and "Favorites". 

Seriously, try to imagine these changes to the Kirikae interface.

What you currently see is 2 lists, "Active" and "Favorites". Lets just look
at Favorites. Put beside each icon an "On/Off" switch (default apple style)
to open or close the app. It can be done immediately, or it can be
configured to open the app "behind" the Kirikae list (great for IM/Mail
apps). This can make using Kirikae Lightning Fast, and twice as Intuitive.

You can keep the Active list for running Apps which are not in the
favorites list. Or you can remove the Active list, and these can just show
at the top, or even be alphabetized into favorites, or even make a separate
list, like a tab at the bottom (like currently with Active/Favorites).

There should also be another Tab at the bottom. This one shows the Most
Recently Opened Apps, most recent at the top. This could be very useful,
like when you need to reopen a recent app, or one you accidentally closed,
etc. Simple, easy to implement, big rewards.

I hope you who reads this has found something worthwhile in this post of
new ideas for Kirikae. I'm an idea guy, so if you wish to contact me about
these ideas further, contact me. Thanks, have a great day.

Andrew

PS: Please consider making the Kirikae list have 2 columns of icons/words.
This will even more rapidly increase human efficiency.

Suggestion: Kirikae Control

Can implement another method to invocate Kirikae
like a swipe down from the status bar to the bottom!! Like mQuickDo
Can be awesome
i hope can implement that because tapping all the time maybe we can brake 
the home button!

Sorry for my english

Better SBSettings compatibility

Is there a way through which SBSettings could be triggered to for example
adjust screen brightness when the Kirikae app switch menu is triggered
while still in an app? because I have noticed that when an app other than
Springboard is the current focused app, SBSettings can't be triggered to
drop-down, and so, in order to use the toggles, the app has to be minimized
and SpringBoard brought to current focus.

I'll also email Big Boss about this.

Thanks!!!!!

Can't enter tasklist from any app

iPhone/iPod Touch model: 3GS
Firmware Version: 3.0

I can't enter the tastlist when i'm in an app. When i doubletap it just goes to 
the springbord. 
I've tried to doubletap faster, but it doesn't work anymore. Doubletapping from 
springboard 
does work.

Feature request: combine favorites and active tab

Functionality similar to how the dock on a Mac works.

Home button method [feat.req]

Probably already being worked on.. a setting that chooses how to invoke
Kirikae switcher with the home button: double-press or hold.
I also have Music Controls installed and to invoke that one, I now have to
press the button four times in a row.
Also, two presses are more prone to errors than single press. Luckily, the
app won't close.
Backgrounder itself also has functions attached to it: enable/disable
backgrounding, but I wouldn't use that in combination with Kirikae anyway.
Of course, a merge with Backgrounder would be great but not per se
necessary I think.

Use Button Controls to Quit Apps (instead of swiping them inside Kirikae list)

Here is a great idea that you can implement very easily.

You currently have the "Control" method for bringing up Kirikae so you can
switch between tasks.

Now, you should make another Control method for closing apps which are
already backgrounded.

For instance: I am using a chat app, then I go into Kirikae to use another
app, which makes the chat app "backgrounded". Then later I come back to my
chat app, to make it Quit, there can be a method like "Double Tap Home" or
"Double Tap Power" or "Tap Home + wait 1 sec + Tap Home again".

The point of this is to make Quitting apps MUCH easier. Currently, one has
to open Kirikae, swipe the app, and then make it Quit. How about using the
buttons to make them Quit? This can be a fantastic feature!

invocationMethod not used?

There seems to be support for "HOME_SHORT_PRESS" as an invocation method in
the source.

Why is this not available?  Does this not actually work?  I don't have a
build environment up for the iPhone yet to test it out myself.

Categories SB support in favorites

In the favorites feature, you can add categories icons, but as of the
current version of kirikae, it just loads normal categories, not categories
sb. It would only be natural to load the enhanced sb version and probably
trivial to add since you wrote both kirikae and categories sb. Thanks for
your consideration.

Feature request: Themes and theme SDK - Namely, layout Palm Pre

I'd love for this app to have the ability to be easily themed with 
downloads from Cydia.  I'm sure a number of people in the cydia community 
would jump right into theming Kirikae if the infrastructure were in place.

Personally, I would love to see Kirikae show running applications as cards, 
like the Palm Pre does.  Each running application would be represented by a 
screenshot taken when it was last the current application (hence, it 
wouldn't be live but it would be more useful than an icon or name).  The 
current application could then have a thick outline around it to indicate 
it being as such, other cards/apps wouldn't.

Favorites would be the only button along the bottom of the screen. I imagine it 
looking and working like the Google Android Apps launcher.  Once 
pressed it would look very much like a typical iPhone home screen but 
populated by your favorite apps.

Sliding up/flicking cards off the top of the screen to close running apps 
would be cool but a long press would also work great.  After a long press 
the card could dim and a close/quit button would appear along with a cancel 
button.
