PocketTouch v1.3 Video Preview; CarTouch Announced

Posted by Jody Mitoma on May 1, 2008 at 4:29 pm

SkylarEC of the iPod Touch Fans community has released a preview of his latest version of PocketTouch; 1.3.

PocketTouch does the following:

  • When you run the Application, the screen will be black. That is to help preserve screen life and avoid images burning into the screen.
  • As long as MusicPlayer (or iPod) is playing a song, a simple tap on the screen will pause the song.
  • Tap the screen again to unpause.
  • Slide your finger to the right to skip to the next song.
  • Slide your finger to the left to play the previous song.
  • The video can be viewed just below (link):

    Skylar states:

    Enjoy! If you look closely, you might just be able to see the new features on the Settings screen. The video was mostly made to show off the App’s daemon.

    Enjoy, and spread the word like jelly.

    Our good man Skylar also announced work on a PocketTouch side-project he calls CarTouch.

    He says:

    Now, my next PocketTouch based side project will be “close” to the MobileMusicPlayer app. You might even say that they’d be touching… (CarTouch, it will be called).

    Keep up the phenomenal work, Skylar. Can’t wait to try out the newest release of PocketTouch, and hear more about this CarTouch project you’ve got coming for us.

      This seems like a phenomenal project! I was holding off buying an ipod touch because of the lack of ability to control it while it’s in the pocket. I have a couple of ideas/suggestions

      you could use the up/down buttons to control volume — another adjustment i like to make while the ipod is in my pocket

      you could use a click and drag left or right to fast forward and reverse through songs (click and drag to the left or right and hold til you get to the point you want)

      Again, thank you for your work on this! i’ll be keeping tabs — and it may be the reason I break down and finally get an ipod touch!
