2daysoft • yrgo

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!”

Maybe there are more reviews on the web but it’s getting harder and harder to stay updated :-). That’s GREAT!

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…”

Next review was released on www.palmserver.cz:

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.”

The following links contain links to the reviews written by Czech web portals. That would probably not be interesting for you but for example a palmserver.cz prepared a lot of screenshots so you can check them.

• The yrgo 1.0 review on Palmserver.cz - the review of the very first version of yrgo. Here you can see how yrgo has changed in a few months.
• Palmserver.cz: New version of excellent Czech yrgo! - Resume: “yrgo is a great product with customization ability that any other UI SW doesn’t have… We would expect a zoom in image viewer or E-Mail and MMS reader. Nothing else comes to our mind and we can easily claim that the price/power ratio makes this software great choice for a user.” (There are good screenshots in this review)
• Palmserver.cz: yrgo brings you VGA and other features - “We have to admire 2daysoft for really fast update features that were requested by our visitors. This update has made the software even more usable. We strongly recommend to try yrgo!”
• Palmserver.cz: Supergadget - new feature of yrgo! - “By supergadget we mean new Today Plugin Gadget that opens completely new possibilities of customizing the yrgo!” (There are good screenshots in this review)
• WMHelp.cz: yrgo brings a comfortable controling your Windows Mobile device - This is a review of old yrgo version (v1.0).

As yrgo is getting to be more and more known the web portals dedicated to Windows Mobile applications will probably write reviews. We don’t want to make you search on the net to read such reviews so have set up a new section for this. We’re very interested what the other servers write about yrgo so we search the web almost everyday to get us updated. And it would be pity not to share information we got with you!

Don’t forget you can even use RSS to keep you updated.
