About BK SoftHome

Adds a notification to your notification bar. Use it as a shortcut to your home screen instead of using your physical home button (hence, Soft Home)

1. Pull down the notification bar.
2. Select BK SoftHome

Tested on HTC Desire (Froyo). Good if your phone's home button is not working or if you want to avoid spoiling it :).

I was looking for a "soft-button" app to preserve the lifespan of my physical buttons (maybe I'm paranoid) - and I found this. Definitely an excellent little utility which serves its purpose without any bloatware or excessive interference!

Why is it difficult just to press Home button? Better include apps shortcuts - YummyBar does this - much more useful

Use this on my NC running CM7.2. Since NC's have had issues with the physical "n" home button action becoming 'loose', I tried this app. Works great and with it being in the notifications bar it stays out of the way and yet is still very fast/easy to use. Only additional feature would be to have it enable on boot without using another auto-start app.

this would be perfect if it allowed you to choose which home launcher you want to associate with the button. as is, it defaults to the existing default, but i'm looking for an alternate route to another home launcher.
