About Power Tap - App Manager
PowerTap is a Free Application - Quick Launcher that organises your favorite Applications, Settings & Contacts in one screen and is accesed through Power Triple Click or Power & Volume keys.
Save time and effort every day using Power Tap to make quick calls, take quick photos, use calculator, voice recorder, compass, phone utilities, turn on LED Flashlight, Screen light, WiFi, Bluetooth, 3G, Sound, Mute, Vibrate, etc.
Launch your favorite apps, open phone settings, alarm and flashlight quickly through a very friendly interface. Take fast shots and videos using your camera application. Customize the shortcut buttons using different colors and styles.
At the top of Power Tap screen you can find the following Toggle Buttons:
WiFi - Mobile Data (3G) - Sound - Vibrate - LED Light (Flashlight) - Screen Light - Bluetooth - Compass
- Use the toggle button LED Light to turn on Camera LED Flashlight. It works even when the screen is off or another application is active.
- Toggle button Screen Light turns your screen into Flashlight - useful for devices with no Camera LED light.
- Toggle button Compass turns on Compass Screen (if you have added at least one app or call shortcut), which works using the device magnetic sensor. It also measures the magnetic field (EMF) and displays it in μT (micro Tesla). This means that you can use it as metal detector (accuracy based on device sensor).
If the EMF value is larger than 100μΤ then the compass might not be accurate and point to wrong direction. Large EMF value indicates that steel / iron objects are near or that the magnetic sensor of your device is not calibrated.
Date and Time can also be displayed at the top of the screen. Click on Date and Time links you to the internal Alarm Clock application. Choose whether you want to display Date and Time from the Settings Menu.
