Profiler has been around for awhile now and is a very useful application from ToySoft. It automates profile switching on your BlackBerry and can be set for certain times of the day and can integrate with your calendar based on keywords.
The new version 2.0 for the Storm & Tour now also switches profiles when the keyboard is locked. This was one of the major gripes with automatic profile switching. While this is a big step forward it still will not switch profiles if your BlackBerry is password locked or in the holster. Still it is an improvement!
Profiler 2.0 for the Storm and Tour is on sale until July 24th for $4.99 after which it goes up to $6.99.
Features include:
- Support up to 16 scheduled profiles
- Start and end time for each profile
- Supports Custom profiles
- Selective days to activate profile
- Integrated with Calendar application with Keyword feature
- Assign Profile when the device is charging
- Optionally vibrate when device is in Holster
- On the Storm and Tour profile will switch even when the keyboard is locked.
- Schedule Profile from the Calendar application
- Very easy to use

Any plans for this on the Bold? Is this OS version specific with the keyboard locked issue? It is the only reason I haven’t purchased the app yet.

Also, if you read in the forum the developer says that it will not switch automatically if there is a password lock, just the keyboard lock.
