So far I have tested a few apps on my iPad some are successful and some arn’t that good.

Backgrounder/ProSwitcher
This app is for switching apps on your iPhone/iTouch originally, not for iPad. If you install this app on your iPad you will receive prompts, leaving your iPad in Safe Mode. Which mean you would need to restart your device. Not recommended to install this app until there is a new update or wait for the next iPad OS update.

Infinidock
An app which lets you place a number of apps in the dock as much as you want. Although when tiling your device to landscape it corrupts the dock. The remaining apps on the right cannot be scrolled even though you tilt it back. Don’t install it until there is a new update for this app.

Winterboard
Winterboard works perfectly fine. Although you need to change the wallpaper on the home screen, it’s quite blurry.

SBSettings
App works fine. Would be nice if they add an iPad size of the SBSettings rather then iPhone/iTouch. Hope the update will come out very soon.

Categories
No bad points about this app. Set your apps in categorized folders in easy steps.

Installous
A great app store when you don’t want to spend chunks of money on apps. The navigation of the app is great, search your apps and download to your device. You can select the app to be install automatically or manually. There is a disadvantage, when you sync your iPad on your Windows/Mac PC your downloaded (Installous) apps will be removed as they are cracked and not approved by Apple AppStore. As long you don’t delete the app in your Installous folder, you can just re-install it again. Although existing game data will also be terminated.

MakeItMine
Changing your carrier’s name or banner works like a charm.

More news on iPad apps coming soon :-)
