XLaunch is the End-All-Be-All of Launchers. That is truly how complete this launcher is. I sometimes wonder if Apple was the Dev behind this software, just because how professional it is. Really it is two apps combined into one: AppFlow and XLauncher (both by Erica Sadun).
Why is it so great? Well to start it has accelerometer support, changing from a list view to AppFlow view by orientation change. Also, when in list view, the apps are sorted alphabetically, with reference letters on the side (reminiscent of the iPod and Contacts app). When one taps an app, a menu pops up with four options: Launch App, Assign to Home Key, Badge it and Cancel. Assign to Home Key sets the selected app to the ‘Double Tap’ setting (f/w 1.1.1 and above). Badge it offers the ability to add a number or short word (3-4 letter) to a ‘Badge’ (like that of when you miss a call or get a new email/text) over the app.
There are no bugs in the current release. This Launcher provides everything that a Launcher should, and for that it gets an A+.
