Handy Taskman from Epocware is very useful application for S60 phones. A taskmanager is a very essential tool for a multitasking device. With Handy Taskmen it is much easier to manage all your apps that are installed on your phone. Besides managing your apps it also shows some basic info about the phones different memories.
A really nice thing about Handy Taskman is that it replaces the standard S60 taskmanager after it is installed on your phone. This way you can start Handy Taskman just by a long press on the menu button. The first thing you will see after starting this app is the process list which shows applications that are running on your phone. Apps that are running in the background are indicated with the typical blue Nokia arrow. On the right side of Handy Taskman you will see the current time and date, the amount of free memory left on your phone. This includes the phone memory, memory card and RAM. Each kind of memory has an indication bar which shows you how much memory is in use compared to the actual amount of memory that the device has. This can also be viewed under options in Memory details.
Under Option you also have the possibility to switch off all running programs or kill some of them. You also have the possibility to search through all the apps on your phone and start them which comes really handy when you have many apps installed on your phone.
Used apps will appear later on your process list so that you can start them directly from Handy Taskman. You can also add apps that you use very often to a favorite list so that you have a faster access to them.
Overall this is one of the only capable taskmanagers for S60 cell phones besides Best Taskman. It really helps when you have a device which has a low amount of RAM. Other than that it does a much better job than the native S60 taskmanager which seems just pitiful compared to this app. In my opinion it is definitely worth a buy if you have many apps installed on your phone.
Handy Taskman costs $14,95 and has also a 14 day trial version. Visit the Epocware Website to buy this app.
