Quick match from Idle with SkyeQuiKey

[Rafe]

Power users are always on the look out for ways they can speed up the use of their device, ways of getting to information just that little bit quicker. In this review Steve examines one potential solution, SkyeQuiKey, a program that integrates with the idle screen and offers quick matching against contacts and applications stored on the phone.

Read on in the full article.

I've just tried the free trial and it is amazing!

Its almost exactly like qix and appQlaunch, except its very fast and very accurate. If it were pre-installed on phones from the start, you could pretty much dump the ui and go with this.

One question, does this find people based on a snippet of phone/fax number? One of my gripes about the E90 is that I can no longer tap in a phone number on contacts and find out who it belongs to.

[tomsky]

As far as I can tell, it only searches from the front of the phone number, so you may have to go quite far into the phone number snippet before it finds a unique person/ narrows the list down sufficiently.

I'd recommend having a try with it, since its got a free trial.

Are you keeping the application Steve?

Steve, one question:

The application is simply amazing and what i have been looking for for a long time....

Just one problem -> have you found a way to invoke Speed Dials from the standby screen now with the app running?

Thanks!

ubikutz - speed dialling still works with this app - you just hold the relevant key down to invoke speed dialling as before.

Seems nice but a bit pricey.

EDIT: In the two hours I've had this on my phone, I've found it to be quite simply, brilliant. No more slow navigation through the folders, simply type the letters of the app you want and up it pops. Contacts are, likewise, a breeze to find and either call or send a message to. It's so fast, and easy.

At least Handango have a sale on at the moment...

I love it too

Also great for launching web pages from your bookmarks, as it searches them too. So instead of first launching the browser, then scrolling to the right bookmark, you just type a few characters from the bookmarks name and BOOM you can go right to the page you need.

Also, it keeps a list of your recent searches, so the next time you search, the item you selected the last time will be at the top of the list.

I think this is an absolutely MUST HAVE app - it has changed the way I use my N95.

How did you do that? It does not show bookmarks on my n93.

Lovely application. I have using this almost since last one month. This one application reduces the entire menu based navigation to zero. Moreover it does not occupy any shortcuts and is very speedy and responsive. I wonder why Nokia can't provide such applications at least in some of the high end models. Wonderful job done by SKYESTREAM team.

My best app I reckon for S60! I also bought from the Skyestream shopcart.
Quick and easy. If you have no other app, this is the one to have at least

watch out, watch out there is a lawyer about!
