FastX task switcher pro

I have looked through 10+ apps for this simple function and works as advertised. It would be great if it would automatically hide the notification bar after clicking on an app!

even better if possible to replace its status bar icon with either battery status or date or some other useful icon...

Works as expected. Nice and Handy tool. Would have been better if i had an option to list only "Running tasks" vs "Recent tasks"

Nice app, but it doesnt allow me to filter ONLY active apps. I want a dropdown app switcher, but I dont want past apps in list, I only want active apps. Each time I return to an app with this it restarts it, instead of where I left off. Horrible.

Great app in general, but it could really use the ability to lock one or more slots permanently.

Used to like this app, upgraded my phone and it no longer works with the most recent version of android.

Why do preferences window pop up every time on booting phone ? How to prevent that ?

If you select a recent app that's still running, it gets killed and restarted instead of just switching to it -- very annoying. Recent Bar does this too.

Very cool feature !

Missed this functionality sorely after switching from HTC to Samsung. App used to deliver perfectly but unfortunately no longer working after Lollipop upgrade ... :(

It's missing the ability to quickly kill a running app or background process. Taking up valuable space in notification bar is not worth it if i can't kill a running app Quickly (as in swipe). Another waste of time. 2of5star

Used the developers' "taskbar switcher" before this and had the same issue. The app does not load automatically after a reboot since I upgraded to kitkat. Looked for a way to contact developer but cannot find one.

I just wish it were more than 5 apps

Does what it says.

wish there was an option to just put selected apps of my choice up there... like all the options it does have. starts on boot, but i unchecked that... hmm

Very cool feature !

Exrllent

Please add auto notification bar retraction (like your task bar switcher app) would get a 5 stars. Edit: The latest update doesn't seems to have fixed notification bar retraction on ICS 4.0.4, thank for the work though.

nice app, works as advertised. a lot faster to access than holding the home button. also very responsive dev, bugs fixed within minutes

Exactly what I was looking for! But needs ability to close apps from notifications list! And to show more than 5 apps (for example, swipe left right)!

I like the simplicity of the app. I would like to be able to turn on the the option that the notification screen rolls back up to the task bar when I select a task to switch to. If this becomes available then it's really a 5 star app.

Really handy as an alternative to long press on home for task switching.

Loved this on my old 2.2 HTC, but it doesn't work right on my Samsung GS3. (It works, but doesn't close the notification tray... ) Hopefully the next update will fix that.

Génial, comme HTC sense

Works well as intended. Though I have no idea what makes it an advantage from just holding the home button to get to the running apps? Probably need something to justify using it.

After installing Fast5 / FastX, I cannot install APK (Apps) from any browser on my Motorola MB860 phone. When I click on the app package and get the "Do you want to install this application" screen, I cannot click "Install". I can only press "Cancel". I have already tried to uninstall and reinstall Fast 5 and even Fast X. Uninstalled this app.

Skips apps you specify (nice) but also some you didn't specify (not nice). (Alternative app is AltTab by mick88 which can show more than 5 but which lacks settings and sometimes appears lower in the notifications.)

No need to hold the home key for multitasking

Use it all the time. Love it!

MIssed this functionality sorely after switching from HTC to Samsung. This app delivers perfectly. Autoclose works on 4.1.1 (Galaxy S3) but not on 4.0.4 (HTC Desire HD).

I've been missing this feature from my stock Desire S since I installed a custom ROM. This is a great replacement! The ability to hide certain apps from the list is great. The only downsides of this compared to the original are the 'Ongoing notifications' title (trivial), and the fact that you have to hide the status bar again after selecting an app (the reason why I didn't give 5 stars).

Very good app. I wish it was a horizontally scrollable list of current and recent apps with more than only 5 icons.

Great app in general, but it could really use the ability to lock one or more slots permanently.

Great task switcher, works perfectly! I would rate 5 stars *EXCEPT* with this installed, the "Install" button is no longer clickable when I try to install anything else! As a workaround I just freeze the task manager, install my app and then unfreeze the task manager.

Works as expected. Nice and Handy tool. Would have been better if i had an option to list only "Running tasks" vs "Recent tasks"

small request if possible? : let me choose my fast 5!!! instead of recent, as option....
