App Switcher

Quickly Switch Between Two Apps with LastApp

For all you speed demons out there, iOS4's multitasking is a little bit cumbersome. Sure you can work in one app, load up the switcher, and then select the app you would like to switch to, but in most cases, there's only a couple of apps you need to use simultaneously.

New Jailbreak Application Removes Selected Apps from the App Switcher

SwitcherPlus Brings Your iPhone App Switcher to the Lockscreen

SwitcherPlus is a new jailbreak application that brings your iPhone app switcher to the lockscreen. I have been trying it, and while it's still in beta, I find it very stable. As a matter of fact, I haven't had any issue at all with SwitcherPlus since I installed it.

When on your lockscreen, simply double tap the home button and the switcher will show up. You can choose to add some favorites to the switcher. These favorites will always be the first 4 apps that will appear in your switcher no matter what.
