After quite the stint of no updates, Better Android has finally released a rather large update of their Open Home app. Actually it was two updates, First v4.0 then another quick update a couple of days later to v4.3. Here are all the specs of the update directly from their site:
We are pleased to announce that Open Home (full version) is not now at its 4th major version v4.x . Here is a list of note-worthy changes/enhancements/features/bug fixes:
- Allow users to set the default fonts to any home screen widgets. Please note that only default fonts are changed because some widgets have custom fonts and we don’t want to give override them. (menu/more/font & color/Widget font)
- Performance enhancements from android 2.1, now home screen scrolling is much smoother, force close issues are gone for Motorola Droid and HTC Nexus One
- More home screen animations and effects, including an experimental 3D cube transition effect (menu/more/Open home setting/3D cube)
- Live Wallpaper is now supported on Nexus One
- Home Chooser’s default setting check box now works as it should (menu/more/home chooser)
It seems as though the 3D cube effect is still quite popular and unlike GDE's cube effect, this one is transparent meaning it doesn't matter what background you use. GDE's cube effect used the wallpaper wrapped around the cube so unless you had a wallpaper that matched at both ends it kinda looked bad.
After the initial update to Open Home, v4.3 was released a couple of days later with this added to it:
Yes, we released an update today again!
It has the same screen indicators as you would find in Android 2.1’s default Home screen. Long pressing the indicators will also give you a screen switcher just like in Android 2.1. We also added a fancier animation to home switcher to make it look even cooler. Enjoy!
I really like the 2.1 screen indicators that they added.
Overall this is a great update to Open Home with the transparent cube and screen indicators being two features I like the most. I really can't find anything wrong with Open Home after using it for some time now and the update only makes things better. Between the update and the overall app I give this a 5/5 stars rating. If you haven't updated your Open Home yet, you need to do so.
