Add iOS shortcuts(wifi, bluetooth, etc) to notifications center. No jailbreak needed.

Didn't see that anyone had posted this yet so just wanted to give people the heads up in case they wanted these settings controls in their notification area. I use the home screen settings icons instead since I don't have to swipe down to open the notification center but I figured other people on here might like this method.

Btw, iOS 5.1 is reported to break up the ability to add shortcuts to certain settings like this does so depending on how big having settings a click away is for you then you might want to hold off updating to 5.1

Uhhh, too late.

This looks pretty useful. Anyone use it here?

edit: lame about 5.1.

Wow that's pretty cool if it doesn't use safari

however being $.99 and 5.1 reportedly removing this type of access, i'd rather not spend my money on something that will soon be useless.

if 5.1 doesn't fix it, i'll for sure buy it, that's sweet

Just bought the App. Works liek it says, but no shortcut for wifi or anything. Just for calls, emails and texts.

Just wanted to give you guys the heads up that the app 'FlashLaunch' just went free so I downloaded it and tried it and it has this same ability (for those still on 5.0.1)

Even at Free, if the next iOS update breaks this functionality, whats the point (why get used to something if its just going to go away soon).

thanks for the heads up though.

Well I can't speak for everyone but I can say for myself:

#1 - You don't have to update if you don't want to and 5.1 might not offer any extreme benefit to get you to give up sbsettings type toggles in the notification center

#2 - Apple might just be changing the url names so that instead of prefs:root = wifi you instead say pref:root = wifi

#3 - It's free... so why not?

I mean lets say 5.1 hypothetically stopped the ability to have folders in iOS, does that mean I should not use folders right now (even though they are convenient and I like them) just because some time in the future it will go away?

Damn. Wish I would have grabbed it while it was free. I still have 5.0.1. Anyone else use this? Worth the 1.99?

Apple should add optional quick shortcuts anyway.. There's no reason why anyone should have to trawl through layers of menus just to turn off / on Bluetooth, wifi etc. Way too cumbersome.

I got switcher when it was free, its pretty good, though a bit clunky due to the way it works.

Is this true? or does it work for wi-fi? Does it open a safari url like another shortcut by some developer whose name I forgot?

Edit: just opened the link and read that it basically has to open the app the execute the command so it adds the notification again.
