| Launch Center Pro |
We have a lot of applications on our iOS devices. I personally have 164 applications in my iPhone. I organize them by grouping the applications into pages and folders. Applications that I use often are placed on the dock. Even with this grouping it is still sometimes difficult to find applications if you have a lot of them on your device. Yes you can search for the applications but what if you have a utility to directly make actions on the applications that you always use e.g. check news feeds in Facebook, send tweets in Twitter and take photos in Instagram. Now you can with Launch Center Pro.

| Available actions for Facebook |
Launch Center Pro is a cool application developed by App Cubby. Launch Center Pro not just opens applications, it has some of the available actions offered by an app. Let's take Facebook as an example. Launch Center Pro offers eight available actions for Facebook which include opening the application, seeing your profile, checking your news feeds, etc. Now how does Launch Center Pro make it easier? Simple, you can just assign actions to the shortcuts you will be creating in the application. You can assign shortcuts to all of the regular things you do on your iOS device. It centralizes the actions that you do often. For me, I call and text a lot to my girlfriend so I created shortcuts for it. I also check the feeds in Facebook, tweet and sometimes take photos in Instagram. Launch Center Pro removes the extra steps on some of these things. For example you want to call, you open the Phone application, go to your Favorites then tap on the contact you want to call. This action has three steps. But with Launch Center Pro, you open the application and tap on the call button. This action only has two steps, very efficient.
Aside from creating actions, Launch Center Pro allows you to group them. For example, I grouped Apple native applications that I always use -- Music, Reminders and Videos. The application also allows you to customize the icons that you assign to the actions, how cool is that! Another thing that I love about the application is that its very neatly designed. The first time you launch the application you have default actions organized like a keypad. This way you can easily see the actions that you'll be creating, very simple and easy to grasp.
Launch Center Pro is highly recommended.
