User Profiles for iPad

With the constant growth of tablet usage, especially that of the iPad, there has been one large gap between picking up the laptop and picking up the iPad: User Profiles.

A tablet is not a phone, nor is it used like one. A phone stays in your pocket, and usually you are the only one who accesses it. On the other hand, most tablets make their way to the coffee table, for any member of the household to grab.

The problem here is personal space. We don’t want to have to log our significant others out of their Facebook account every time we use the tablet, or have to use web-mail because someone else’s accounts are signed in to the mail client. That ruins the convenience of having a quickly accessible tablet.

Thus, we have created User Profiles, a new application for jailbroken iPads that will solve this dilemma.

Features include:

Fast user switching for multiple accounts on re-spring (Approx 5 seconds) Independent wallpapers and other settings like brightness Seperate settings for iTunes applications (Facebook, Twitter, etc) Unique icon image per user Support for independent Email/Contacts/Calendar accounts Different bookmarks, history, and site logins for Safari Shared applications: Install an App on one user, it auto-installs for the other Complete iTunes compatibility Shared Cydia settings support Clone existing user to new user v2: Optional password security for accounts v2: Multiple skins, such as OSX and Win7 v2: Support for unlimited users (v1 is limited to 6 [UI Limitation])
