New switches for HD Widgets

Been a busy new year for us. We've been hard at work behind the scenes and a lot of new stuff is going to be appearing over the next few weeks.

The newest release of HD Widgets includes our most requested feature: new toggle switches! We have over 20 switches to choose from at this point, almost too many to mention. However there are a few we want to highlight:

Do Not Disturb - this will turn off the ringer & notifications for a period of time for meetings, audience events, and such.

Battery indicator - not really a switch (we'll follow up with a proper battery widget soon) and appears in some of the presets.

GPS, USB Tethering, WiFi Hotspot - these aren't toggles inasmuch as shortcuts to the Settings. We can't toggle these directly.

We're also on our way towards offering more useful switch rows and finished the first step: Presets which include device and/or activity-based groups of switches:

  • default
  • 4G Phone
  • 3G Phone
  • Tablet
  • Travel Phone
  • Travel Tablet
  • Games & Media
  • Communications
  • Power Saver

These are just the beginning; customizable switch rows will be coming next.

Other small updates: less-garish weather alert icon (hope u like it) and we replaced H/L with up & down arrows (so we don't have to localize).

So that's it. Grab the latest update from the market.

Much more to come!
