I’m really glad to let you know that yrgo won the software of the year 2008 award on palmserver.cz! yrgo is very famous on this server and this makes me very happy. But this is not everything; on the same server, yrgo won the software of the December award. I hope this year will be growing for yrgo and we will all make yrgo the best UI for Windows Mobile ever!
Software of the December 20008
Software of the year 2008!
“We were bringing you the information during all the year about yrgo which is low-price stylus-free User Interface for Windows Mobile. The first place yrgo deserved for its outstanding customization ability, its fantastic features that no other alternate UI offers and also for very flexible development that take care about users’ opinions.”
We’re proud to inform you that yrgo won the “Software of the month” award for August. We’re glad yrgo is so famous on palmserver and their editors really like yrgo.
The upcoming version of yrgo will be able to handle custom Gadgets - Gadgets that can be written by other developers. This can nicely extend amount of Gadgets available in yrgo. Now, everything will depend on other developers whether they will prepare new Gadgets or not.
If you are a developer and would like to participate on yrgo developing you must do following:
write us e-mail (2daysoft (at) lepsi (dot) cz) to upgrade your forum account to get access to developers part of the forum
Would you like to get yrgo license for free? Just write a Gadget that will be valuable for our users. We will publish it on our site and you’ll get license of yrgo. Forever!
We are very happy today! We already wrote you about some reviews on the Czech servers but we’ve already found plenty of reviews on the English-speaking servers. Check them out!
“2DaySoft have launched a new donationware today screen and customisable app launcher called Yrgo. It looks very flexible, like a cross between HTC home and winterface. If it’s stable and works as well as it looks it could be a great addition for those of us not blessed with devices running TouchFlow3D.”
“There’s no shortage of contenders out there for fixing up the Windows Mobile interface. Into this crowded space comes yrgo, which brings some unique functionality and it actually quite impressive. What’s new? Well, yrgo basically gives you four ‘desktops’ to which you can add ‘gadgets’ like new message notifications, program links, calendar appointments, and so on. Not much new there, to be honest.
What is new (and pretty darn cool) is that these gadgets are customizable in the extreme. The customization interface is intuitive and chock-full of options. Take a gander at the above video to see exactly how it works.
If you want a Today Screen replacement (four of them, actually) that looks exactly how you like it and you don’t mind spending some time making that happen, yrgo looks like a great option. It’s $10 donation-ware.”
“It’s not often that I get excited about a new application but yrgo seems to have done just that….
That seems to be the best Today screen replacement I have seen. I’m definitely going to try it out. Those of you interested, yrgo is a free download but it’’s not freeware. It’s actually donationware which means if you like it, please donate $10 to the developer. It’ll keep him motivated and going.”
“It is a home screen pluging but also application launcher. However that’s not all: it includes also special contacts, SMS, settings and other applications - especially designed for usage with finger and with nice screen transitions!”
We’re glad to inform you about new reviews of yrgo 2.2 that were released on two czech portals.
yrgo was for the first time introduced on the www.smartmania.cz - which is one of the biggest portals dedicated to Windows Mobile devices in the Czech republic.
Resmue: “yrgo has a big potential. It is a pity that no user’s manual is provided with yrgo. The only way how to found out how yrgo works is a presentation video. It is hard to find some of the features of yrgo in the application. Some kind of online help directly in yrgo would be very nice.
However yrgo looks like a very complex tool it is fast and reaction time is very good. We didn’t find out any major stability problems during our tests - except of the Today Plug-in gadgets, but their support is experimental only at this time. The cons list includes absence of Appointments gadget and too slow “running applications” feature. Some of the users would not be familiar with English support only…”
Resume: “Very good developers’ job as it is from the begining is making yrgo better and better. All the new features hugely improve the application and increase ability of user customization.”
We are really glad that Tonyj has sent us his screenshots of yrgo. He is the very first user who did this and we’d like to thank him. It is a great idea to have users screenshots on our server so we’ve created a new thread in our forum.

The following change list shows you what’s new in yrgo 2.2:
Features added
Skinning support - the yrgo can be completelly skinned now! And of course - directly from the application. Forget on annoying XML files or whatever else. Just go to the “Settings -> yrgo ->Skin settings”
Portrait/Landscape mode - you can switch between the portrait/landscape mode and yrgo will do the same. But there’s even more! Each mode has its own 4 desktops so now you have up 8 desktops available!
Full screen mode - now yrgo can be used in full screen mode. This gives you additional space for your gadgets!
HW keyboard support - search for your contacts using your HW keyboard.
Switch the animations on/off - if you are not familiar with the animations just switch them off.
Gadgets color - you can change the Gadgets’ text color.
What was fixed
The VGA version had some problems when items were painted. The VGA support is much better now!
Today plug-in gadget - there are still some problems with several Today Plug-ins. Those problems caus that yrgo is not exited properly and the device has to be reset before yrgo can be ran again. For this reason the Today Plug-in gadget is still marked as “experimental and unstable”.
Menu flickering was fixed.
The “Programs” and “Explore root” items scrolling was reapired (it was too slow).
The scrolling support was more optimized.
What was removed:
“Today left/right buttons” was removed from the settings menu because of its instability.

The first award yrgo has already received was for the first version of yrgo. Although it was mistakenly put in the wrong category (freeware) we are glad that we have this award.
We were 2nd in this “award competition” and we hope that for September we’ll be the first :-).
