SwitcherPlus is a nice application for iOS 4.x (Apple iPhone 4, 3GS, iPod Touch) which adds a multitasking tray to your device lockscreen. This makes it really simple to switch between apps from the lockscreen. SwitcherPlus is brought to you by the same team behind biteSMS.
SwitcherPlus is using the iOS multitasking APIs to create the content of its tray and bring it to the lockscreen.
This application does require a jailbroken iPhone or iPod Touch, you can jailbreak your device using JailbreakMe. You can read more in our article @ Jailbreak your iPhone and iPad with JailbreakMe.
