AppSwitch - The missing app that should have been in the box!
Critical acclaims for AppSwitch:
"iOS 4 brought us multitasking, but there's no way to tell what's running in the background versus what's the app you last used. This app solves that problem and more!"
"Great app! The Console feature helped me narrow down MobileMe as the trigger to those random reboots on my iPhone!"

Works as advertised
Just added a star due to the over the air update, recently. If they developers keep adding apps and Icon Packs, this app will be well worth it's weight in pennies.
What is this app good for? I use it to tell what apps are still running in the background and then I kill said apps in Apple's native task switcher to free up memory.
Pure awesomeness
It's cool to get a small picture of the big system of actions that are going on our iPods at any time. This app pretty much gives you that constantly-changing picture. :) It's not a bad app-switcher, either.
Fabulous, invaluable developer tool
AppSwitch has saved me so much time in development - the ability to see what has been sent to the console when my app crashes or when I want to look at diagnostic output during debugging is worth its weight in gold. With the new version 1.01, you can now copy or email individual console messages, which makes it a wonderful tool to put in the hands of our beta testers and customers with difficult to reproduce issues, so we can get more accurate and complete information from the field. The only complaint about this new feature is that the email appears to be all in a single line (i.e. no line breaks, you just get the console message all in one long line). But that's a small complaint compared to how useful this app is for developers! Thank you guys, and keep it coming!
