User Review of GO Switch Widget

  • Very good (except A 4.2) Nov 27, 2012

    It's very good widget, I use it in my phone. But it is still not possible to install it in Android 4.2 in Nexus 7. Is it possible to do something with it? I need this widget.

  • Awesome App Oct 8, 2012

    After updating to ICS noticed WIFI AP no longer working, tried everything, put a detailed e-mail together for the developer and then read the App description above. They'd already resolved my problem, enable as Device Administrator. Yay! Great App, small footprint. Very happy! :)

  • Amazing Sep 7, 2012

    I love this widget My only complaint is i am unable to connect to the wifi ap network. it is locked and i seem unable to edit settings or even view the existing settings. i did not set the password so itmust be the default password but there is absolutly no documentation on it. I am going to email the dev because it might be my device as others have said something about it automatically asking for custom settings. I'v installed this several times and have been unsuccessful so far. everything else is seemless though.

  • Super Widget! Sep 27, 2012

    Super useful widget. Just one issue since the last latest update is that the 'Using the ringtone volume as notification volume' option when checked, no more silences the notifications on my Samsung Galaxy note. And since the documentations by go launcher devs are so limited, i am unable to find a solution to this. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.... Note: It does silence the ringtone and the system volume.

  • Making everything Easy Jan 20, 2013

    The app makes accessing many functions easily. For example I need not to go to settings and then deep inside to switch off my Internet Connection, can simply do it from home screen!!! Definitely this app is a winner. Just adding some more interesting themes and styles and make it more creative !!!

  • Cool Dec 31, 2012

    I like that you can turn off mobile network and the easy access flashlight but the screen brightness control doesnt work and I constantly adjust that everyday. Could be a deal breaker if it gets frustrating.

    FROM 5 TO 4 STARS.... NO REAL UPDATES or NOR new features.. to original application.. Works very well and highly recommended. PROBLEMS: 1 - Move to SD Card.. Something fails first time and needs second try to complete. 2 - Flashlight is just 'no sleep of screen' and does support Flash on camera. 3 - The Task Manager IS NOT.. just a 'simplestic' Task Killer... No active Running Apps displayed with kill option. I HAVE SEEN NO NEW BUTTONS ADDED... UPDATES SEEM NOT TO BE ADDRESSING POOR DESIGN.

    Even though I'm on CM and don't have much use for this app anymore, I still like having a few widgets still on my screen. The problem is that it automatically has "Stay Awake" enabled after I reboot my phone so I have to go in and turn that off. Very annoying. Please fix!

    Very good, very efficient, highly costumizable. Only complaint is that auto-rotation button isn't effected when using the native android button on my galaxy s2. Please check this issue.
