ToySoft let me know about their latest release iconManager. This app seems to be a combination of a few widgets that show up as homescreen icons. That is the best description I could come up with: Homescreen icon widgets. The idea is really cool but currently there are only 2 icons available but more will be coming as a free upgrade. Considering the features and the available icons the app is priced perfectly at 99 cents on sale until Oct 16th. Hopefully the next icon available will be creating your own website shortcuts.
From the description:
iconManager is a icon manager to mange AppIcons apps created by Toysoft. AppIcon is a application that updates the icon on the HomeScreen to give you the most current information about a subject. Currently included with iconManager are:
- iCalendar – an appIcon that displays the current day and optionally show the icon name in day of the week or month eg: Friday or October. The day is automatically update when it changes.
