Comments on Launch Center Pro
Hi, Has anyone ever used the following app: Launch Center Pro by Contrast iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPod touch (3rd generation), iPod touch (4th generation), iPod touch (5th generation) and iPad on the iTunes App Store It is an app which will allow one to create shortcuts to many IOS apps and features. I'm particularly worried about accessibility. From iTunes store: Launch actions, not just apps! It's like speed dial, but for more than just phone calls! Launch Center Pro creates lightning quick shortcuts to specific features buried deep within apps. Call a loved one, message a friend, launch Instagram's camera to quickly snap a pic, tweet, or turn your iPhone into a flashlight. Launch Center Pro gets you to where you're going faster than ever before! Launch Center Pro is an app of verbs. Search. Shoot. Call. Text. Add... With a simple tap-and-slide, you can launch apps, perform actions and more... It's so simple and fast that before long your muscle memory takes over and you don't even have to look. -Dave Caolo List of Launch Center Pro supported apps and actions: http://actions.appcubby.com/ I hope to get some feedback either positive or negative as I'm really considering purchasing this app, but if it is not accessible then I'm probably going to waste 3 or 4 dollars. :) Here is a YouTube video describing what this app can do: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YnMzq-t3qds Thank you for your time.

RE: Comments on Launch Center Pro
Hi Joseph, I would definitely hold off until after iOS 7 is released and then see if the app hangs around. First of all, I don't see the point about shortcuts to call people, all you have to do is put people in your Favorites list. If I have focus on the Favorites tab in the phone app, I can open my phone app just as quickly as I can open this app and then Favorites will be right there and all I have to do is double tap on any one of them to start a call and, I think, you can add Favorites as well to start a text message. Flashlight - in the keynote in June when the new Control Center was introduced they said that apart from turning on/off things like airplane mode, Bluetooth or WiFi, there are also quick launch buttons in Control Center for the Calculator, Camera and iOS 7 has a native Flashlight function accessible via the Control Center. As for website shortcuts, you can create them and put them on your home screen using Safari. Anyhow, I am not saying that this app might not hav some useful features, but it also seems to duplicate some things you can do in iOS 7 fairly easily and possibly iOS 7 adds some native features which take away even more from this app. So, I would wait, first of all check to see if it is still there a month or so after iOS 7 comes out, then read some reviews of people who used it under iOS 7. In the meantime you can always write to the developer and ask if they have anything to say about Voiceover accessibility.
