iLaunch iPhone iAlike iUI

Posted on Monday, Apr 16, 2007 by Dieter Bohn

Filed Under: News; Tags: iphone

iLaunch is a $9.95 application that's reminiscent of the earlier iPhone app/skin, but with a couple of key differences. The main one: this app/skin (presumably) contains 95% less sue-able intellectual property. Different graphics and icons, but basically similar design cues and methods for getting around.

Me, I'd rather use Spb Mobile Shell - which is a great "thumbable" interface for WM that grabs into a lot more functionality.

It looks like the iPhone, but it’s not ! However, it can do a few things that the iPhone can’t do.

I use iLauncher, and it looks close enough for me. It was $14.99, and has a lot of other great features.

It takes a little bit of tweaking on the tabs and size of the horizontal and vertical settings, but when you get it set, it rocks.

I tried it and it's actually very nice. I'm using it as my main screen lock / application launcher now.

Here is a link for another free one that looks pretty interesting, especially with the Apple lawyers lurking:
