Multiscreen Multitasking is 10 apps in one. This is the closest you'll get to a Windows 8 style 'desktop mode' on your Android, or to the multitasking features on the S3 or Note 2. This doesn't run any app in a window unfortunately - that's not possible due to the way Android is programmed - but it is the closest alternative. This app includes a unique browser, notepad, drawpad, map and more, and each can be resized and dragged around the screen so you can do more than one thing at once. You can also run a number of web apps including Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, GMail etc. or open widgets in windows too. Best of all? All the apps are interconnected - you can open a website, save it as an image, open it in the drawpad, write on it, then send it to a friend!

Feel like you're in Minority Report - tile browsers and read more than one website at once, watch Avengers while reading the news, write an article using Wikipedia as a source, chat on Facebook chat while browsing and listening to music, draw a picture while copying from Google Images, view a place in maps while browsing the web, or open up a text document at the same time as the browser in order to take notes on what you're reading. Create folders to organise your files and edit them on the fly in pop-up windows. Send messages and check your e-mail without needing to stop browsing....

Features Include:

* Desktop wallpaper = phone wallpaper
* Word count
* Spell check
* Video player
* PDF viewer - 2 PDFs at once!
* Browser favourites
* Shortcuts on desktop
* Edit HTML in text editor and view changes in the browser
* View source
* Save websites as images and edit them
* Easily share drawings/text documents/web links and more
* Find on page for browser
* Browse and preview files
* Edit, cut, rename, delete and create new files with the file manager!
* Drawing/doodling pad
* Open widgets in windows
* Maps
* Music player
* Find and Replace
* Up to three browsers and two editors on screen at once
* Resizeable windows
* Edit photos and add filters like blur, posterise etc.
* Double tap to maximize
* Drag to the side to clip to half the screen
* Zoom for both browser and text editor
* Send e-mails from the editor

Many more features are coming soon - please support this app if you want to see camera, games, browser tabs, calculator, spreadsheet, and other functions added more quickly! If you have any requests please get in touch. There are so many cool updates coming, please stick with this app!

If you have any suggestions or problems then please E-MAIL me. I am eager to help and to make this app the best it possibly can be, but I need your help and feedback to do so :-)

You can create shortcuts for any hidden functions or secret codes, such as App Ops, *#*#4636#*#* (Testing menu), etc...

To start creating a shortcut, follow these simple steps:

1) Find the target by using one of the following tools (under the Menu):
- Secret Code Explorer
- App Explorer
- Search
- Capture Shortcut

2) You can test the target by opening it (Launch button).

3) Create the shortcut in the list (Favorite button) or on the Home screen.

4) OR you can import the shortcut list into your app. Here is some sample shortcut lists for your convenience:

- Android Hidden Shortcuts (4.3): http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2872474&d=1406473157
- Samsung Hidden Shortcuts (Note 3): http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2872475&d=1406473157

* SECRET CODE EXPLORER:

Here you will get a list of all secret codes available in your device.
You can filter the list by All apps, System apps or User (downloaded) apps.

For each item in a list, the first line is the code, the second line is app name and the last one is broadcast receiver name.

By tapping on the item, a context menu appears that will let you launch the code, explore the app (that owns this code) and add this code to the favorite list for easy access.

You have 4 options to launch the code: method 0 and 1 (broadcast the intent), method 2 and 3 (simulate the dialing on the dial-pad). By default, method 2 dials *#*#code#*#*, method 3 dials *#code#, but you can change these formats in the Settings. Method 0 requires root permission, while method 1 doesn't.

After testing the code, you can add a shortcut for this code to the favorite list. You also have 4 options to create the shortcut. Be noted that you can not create shortcut on the home screen for the secret code.

NOTE: For Samsung devices that have not been enabled HiddenMenu, you can still use this app to launch the secret codes.

* APP EXPLORER:

Here you will get a list of installed apps in your device. You can filter the list by All apps, System apps or User (downloaded) apps.

For each app, the first line is the app name, the second line is the package name.

Tapping on the app will open the list of all components (activities) in that app. By tapping on the item, a context menu appears that will let you launch the target, add a shortcut for this target to the favorite list or the home screen for easy access.

* SEARCH:

Here you can search the target by full text searching. Just enter any text to the search box and press the button to search. The text will be searched in the app name, package name and the target class name.

You can filter the search result by All apps, System apps or User (downloaded) apps.

* CAPTURE SHORTCUT:

You can capture the shortcut manually or automatically.

To manually capture, navigate to the desire app that you want to capture shortcut, pull down the system notification bar and tap on the 'Capture Shortcut' icon.

To capture automatically, do the same and wait for the predefined period of time and this app will do auto capture for you.

* EXPORT/IMPORT:

You can export the favorite list to the file on the sdcard for backup. Use the file to import later or copy the file to other devices.

*** ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS ***
- Some system functions may need ROOT permission to be launched.
- Some system functions can not be created shortcut on the Home screen.

Please be noted that it is due to device policy, and these vary from devices to devices.

LITE Edition Limitation:
- Show ads
- Can not create shortcuts on the Home screen
- Limit the number of shortcuts in the favorite list (max. number of shortcuts is 20)

Caution
- You need a separate application that corresponds to the format so you can open the file. For example, PDF files can not be opened without PDF readers such as Adobe Reader.

The unlocked version has 500+ additional preset colors and gradients, no ads, and no time limit.

**************************

Watch the short video to see how it works. There are other similar apps, but we strongly believe ours is the best in terms of practicality and pure awesomeness.

We wanted to bring you something simple, but very useful and effective. Something you would enjoy using everyday with absolutely no side effects. There are battery saving options to minimise the impact on battery. We have steadily measured around 3% battery consumption for the whole day on our test devices.

We hope it works just as good on your phone.

** NOTE **
In general, we recommend turning off AOO completely when you are moving or walking. That is why you have the convenient Start/Stop shortcut icon. Basically the idea is to have AOO running when you are at home, office, school or in public transport etc.
This doesn't apply to Ultimate Users. Ultimate Users have 'Ultimate Off'.

*** IMPORTANT NOTE ***
Unfortunately in some devices, the accelerometer sensor cannot be used when the screen is OFF. Awesome On will not work on these devices.
Please do not give a low rating if this is unfortunately the case.

Android 4.0.4 and 4.1 Users - There is a well known bug that was introduced in 4.0.4 that causes the screen to turn on again after 'Awesome Off'. We recommend changing your lock screen to 'none' for the time being.

** Features **

Screen On
- Simply tilt the phone up, to turn the screen on.

Screen Off
- Fling your hand 2 times, near the proximity sensor, to turn the screen off.
- Or simply click 'Screen Off' icon.

Other Features
- Separate shortcut icons for 'Start/Stop', 'Settings' and 'Screen Off'.
- Awesome On Sensitivity.
- Awesome Off Sensitivity.
- Battery Saving Mode. Tip: Test first disabled.
- Remove notification option. And gracefully handles situations where Android restarts Awesome On Off when notification is removed.
- Disable Awesome Off while running landscape applications.
- While you're on a phone call, Awesome On Off will not be active.
- Aweseom On Bypass Non-Security Lockscreen option.
- Vibrate.

Ultimate Version Features
- The Ultimate feature. When you're about to hit the road, fling your hand 3 times (or simply click the 'Ultimate Off' shortcut icon) to turn the screen off. Awesome On Off is completely idle until you manually turn the screen on again. You never need to Start/Stop manually with the shortcut icon. You are in total control.
- Ultimate Off audio confirmation.
- Start on boot.
- No Ads. The Free version shows an Ad every 20th time the screen is turned on. You can easily close the Ad, should not be disruptive for daily use even with the free version.

About Battery Saving Mode
- When the screen is off, depending on the Battery level and type of background apps you have running, Android can decide to put the CPU to full sleep. Awesome On will not work when the CPU is in full sleep. When Battery Saving Mode is enabled, Awesome On Off will not interfere and let the CPU go to full sleep as usual. You can disable Battery Saving Mode completely or set a desired interval to keep the CPU partially awake, ensuring Awesome On will always work.
