The free, feature-rich and popular S60 task manager, Jbak TaskMan, was just updated to V0.99. The nice point about this release is that now it can be installed on all S60 3rd Edition handsets as unlike its previous releases it is SymbianSigned. You can perform the following tasks using Jbak TaskMan:
- Find and start the desired application by pressing “#” key and typing the first letters of its name.
- Create shortcuts in the Launch Menu to start applications, open documents or execute specific tasks.
- Get full information about running programs and free memory left on the phone (RAM, Phone memory and Memory card).
- Switch to or Close any application — it can close Gallery & Music player too.
- Run Jbak TaskMan by pressing and holding the Menu key (like the built-in Task manager).
- Lock keypad from any screen.
- Reboot your phone.
The application (which isn’t fully screen reader-friendly) is developed and maintained by the Russian Symbian programmer Juriy Bakunin. The 0.99 release is also available for S60 6.X, 7.X and 8.X handsets.
