One Touch EMAIL is a nifty little application that has been designed keeping in mind the touch-screen goodness of the BlackBerry Storm. However that doesn’t mean other BlackBerry users (present company included) can’t make use of the application. The application as the name suggests offers single touch access to the Compose Email screen. So when you click on the application's icon you can directly send an email and don't have to navigate to your email or message icon first and then select the "compose email option. As soon as you click on the application, you can select your desired email id from a drop-down list and also email to more than one recipient. The basic idea behind One Touch Email is to save a few seconds and make emailing more convenient.
Here is a quick look at the feature set:
- Single Button Access to Compose Email screen.
- Supports multiple Email recipients
- Loads a single icon which can be placed anywhere on the homescreen.
- Free Upgrades.
As soon as I download the application, the One Touch EMAIL was installed in my download folder.
One Touch EMAIL takes about 30 seconds to install, which is always appreciated in our fast paced world. However what really struck me as a nice aspect of this program was that the developer gets right to the point, there's no settings to configure or options to tweak, just install the application and you're ready to go.
Once installed I then moved the icon to my homescreen and as soon as I clicked on it, I got the Compose Email screen. I then came across the “Send Using” option where I could find my personally configured email addressess (I have 4 addresses setup) and hence proceeded to select my work email address.
The application worked liked a charm on my Bold and I am sure Storm users will appreciate the quick access to the compose mail option more.
The simplicity of the One Touch EMAIL application is its greatest strength. This no frills application makes using your Blackberry slightly more productive and even fun.
Apart from being struck by its usefulness, what also impressed me was the simple user interface. The fact that you can use the application as soon as you download it and don't have to spend anytime figuring it out, made me give it a few extra points.
The application offers one of the fastest and convenient ways to email and for those reasons I recommend this email application to anyone looking to cut down on email launch and send times.
