Description
PreHome is a simple and lightweight task switcher.You can use actual Home by pushing [Home] button on PreHome.
Tasks that already killed are drawn with translucent.

Awesome This is the best thing that has happened to my phone ever…Droid 3 won't let you set it's native homescreen app to default on home button press. Prehome will do this if you tell it to in the prefs while adding functionality on one home press. Now I can keep my homescreen customizations while jumping between my other launchers without them hijacking my homescreen. TY! (PS use Home Control or some home manager to switch between home launchers.)

Very good Thank you. :-)

Perfect Using it with "Go Launcher" on SGS2. Set to run this application on "glide up" gesture. Desktop is still displaying first by pressing "home" button. Works perfect! PreHome shows currently running and recent applications separately. Very helpful app!

Pretty good Since I switched my Nokia N900 to Samsung Galaxy Note I've been looking for a way to have a similar "Alt+Tab" function as it had in the Maemo 5 OS (You just simply had a constant task switch button in the upper-left corner and it took you to a Windows 7-like Alt+Tab menu, where you had a live preview of all the currently running apps and could jump to any one of them, and had a function to kill them 1 by 1). Now this app, does not show you a preview (that would be André Rabold's Perfect Task Switcher...however that requires rooting to have previews and I do not want to void my software warranty just yet), but it gets the job done. PreHome makes it remarkably simple to navigate between apps with a simple Home button push, and with another push you can get back to the actual home launcher. So I would say this is one of the most useful apps for someone who likes practical things, and I'm glad to have it. (The only way it could be better if it could show live previews of the running apps.) Thanks for the great app :)

After further testing... I found out that the reason for the default home screen resetting itself after every reboot is no other then prehome. When prehome is installed and I set any launcher to default and reboot phone the default home is cleqres and am forces to select a new default home every reboot as well as every install/uninstall of an app. Very annoying. Almost decided to format phone. Uninstalled until this is fixed. 2.3GB SGS II UPDATE: Nevermind fault was Go Launcher.

It works perfectly

A nice task switcher for those who doesn't like the user-unfriendly "long press home" native task switcher.

Just need a dock to make android perfect .

I like it but... Works OK, great concept, but it's so dark I can barely see the icons, on my rooted HTC G2, and none of the background or layout choices make it better. I like it but it's too hard to see on this phone.

Been looking for this everywhere
