Exposé on the iPhone with Orbit.app

October 16 3 Comments Category: Review, iPhone

My good friend Steven Troughton-Smith has been working on an extremely cool project for the last few days. He has written an application named Orbit,that brings an Exposé like feature to the iPhone. It makes it super easy to move to a certain page of applications very quickly! It is especially helpful if you have quite a few pages of apps! When launched, little previews of your pages come up almost instantly. To go to a certain page, just tap the preview of that page!

Tapping one of the previews takes you to the page that is shown in the selected preview

The whole application is extremely well made. It’s super easy to use and really helpful. Orbit also features some sexy graphics from Louie Mantia!

Orbit has been submitted to the Cydia store and should be up for sale soon! Once it is accepted, you can download it from Cydia for $1.99!

  1. I don’t know if I would jailbreak my phone for just a couple of cool apps – I think the jailbreak community is a sign to Apple to open up their platform.
