New PhoneWeaver 1.3.1 release

 

clip_image002 Whatever could be a phone weaver? Someone who weaves phones? If you consider the profile configuration elements of your phone as warp and woof, and the resulting profiles as phone fabric, then you will welcome PhoneWeaver for its amazing functionality whether on autopilot or manual operation.

PhoneWeaver is a Today Screen application that allows users to configure a phone’s profile settings based on such variables as time, appointments, and phone state. These profile settings will automatically control Wi-Fi, push mail, Bluetooth, ringer, and vibrate state. From the Today screen PhoneWeaver panel you can manually turn on/off Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Phone, and email. You can see how many new messages you have in voicemail, email, and SMS/MMS. It also logs missed calls. A tap will call them up for viewing. Launch the settings menu from the Today screen panel where you can control all the inner workings of the beast. For instance, you can create profiles for Mute, Night, Day, Flight, and Car as well as create custom profiles for certain circumstances to which you may assign specific icons that display in the panel.

A variety of skins are available for customizing the look of the PhoneWeaver panel and icons. Optionally, you can place an icon on the tray bar to invoke the program from outside the Today Screen if you wish.

The program is designed to be controlled with one hand and is finger friendly being receptive to thumb gestures for control.

PhoneWeaver is a program you could live without if you didn’t know any better. It’s like being happy with a Chevvy, if you didn’t know you could have a Maserati. Once you’ve experienced the functionality of PhoneWeaver, there’s no going back.

Try it for free, and you will surely want to keep as one of the missing tools not supplied in Windows Mobile. It’s available at http://www.sbsh.net/products/windows_mobile_pocket_pc/phoneweaver and costs $14.95. If you hurry, there’s a special offer that will save you $4.48 and cost only $10.47.
