The Lounge

Lounge back, play some tunes, grab a drink, play a round of cards, or check the scores in sports! Add all of your favorite apps and web links in one place for ease of access, traveling from room to room to enjoy all the recreational activities that your Lounge has to offer.

The Lounge is a convenient app launcher utility, with a visual twist - each lounge room features an appealing background image reflecting the theme of that room. In each room of the lounge, add and access your favorite apps and web links using a sliding transparent panel. The panel displays a list of your added apps and links, with command buttons to add apps and web links at the bottom, while the background image remains visible behind the app panel.

In case you decide to upgrade to "The Lounge VIP" or need to reinstall the app later, use the "Export" command to save your configured apps and web links for each room to the SD Card. The exported data can be reloaded into either version of the app using the "Import" operation. Note: The export operation overwrites any previous export, and the import operation erases existing app configurations before loading the exported configuration.

If you are updating from an older version of the app, please note that Version 1.0.9 implements an improved method for querying and launching Installed Apps to address issues with the Contacts, Camera, and Gallery apps. Launch info for previously-added apps will be updated when you enter a room, but in rare cases an app may be removed instead - if this happens, just add the removed app back into your room using the Add an App command. This update also enables you to add the Phone app, which was not included in the Installed Apps list with the old method! (Update in Version 1.0.10 addresses an error reported by a user!)

Note: "The Lounge" is the free demo version of "The Lounge VIP" and is limited to adding 2 apps to each room. Please download the paid version to remove any limitations on all rooms.

Please email us with problems you encounter or any new features that would make the app more useful to potential users - we appreciate any and all feedback.
