Application Description
This small application can be used to define some application to be started every time when your PalmOS device is reset, resuming, just after HotSync, after insertion of expansion card or connection of external connector. This feature is useful to launch a most used application when you wake up the device. By example, if you have a Photo application installed, it is possible to show a selected picture every time when Palm wakes up. Alternatively you may open your favourite Launcher or Today Application on system reset. You may also open the Memo application just after HotSync.
One of the unique features of OnLaunch is the possibility to lock current launching settings to prevent the changes made by some unauthorized persons. That makes OnLaunch an ideal solution for public devices such as used in Airports, Hotels, Clubs etc.
- Starts selected applications from internal memory and expansion cards after reset, hotsync and when switched on.
- All configuration settings can be easily enabled and disabled
- Informs you how long your device was sleeping and when you did HotSync
- Informs you when you have last time reset your Palm
- Easy application selection list with application icon
- Complete control over application's features and behavior from menu and screen controls
- Reset, Sleep and HotSync can be initiated from within the application by simply tap on the button
- Saves/restores brightness level after Reset on compatible devices
User interface is in German and English, the application selects the appropriated language automatically.

I have been able to delete several applications on my Palm m515 (OS version 4.1) that "OnLaunch" does in one simple application (and hope to delete another if all goes well with future enhancements of "OnLaunch")!!! Great developer support as well. Always a pleasure to purchase a product that is backed by 100% support.

Does everything it says and does it well. Only one problem - the Sandbox feature of Uninstall Manager is overridden by this program in that when you hotsync a new palm program the sandbox doesn't control the process after a hotsync. Would be perfect if you could make the hotsync function of onlaunch only operate when no applications are being downloaded.

Every once in a while an excellent utility comes along, and I add 'OnLaunch' to that group. No, the ideas are not new, but Slawa consolidates 3 on/off functions into one inexpensive, well designed, low memory usage utility. The author is receptive to ideas and communicates with users.
