SmartSwitcher

# What it does #
Basically what it does is it makes it possible to launch androids taskswitcher (recent apps) or call a other action by waving your finger past the proximity sensor. With a little practice this really makes multitasking much faster.

Feel free to try it out. If anyone likes it i will put it on google play. By the way, you need root for it to work. I attached a full version except for autostart on boot that will not work in this version.

# Instructions #
Wave past your proximity sensor once or more for:
- Once for recent apps.
- Two for menu.
- Three for back.
- Four for home.

Customizable settings is coming.

# Other #

The powerconsumption of the proximity sensor is extremely low so the impact on your battery should be fairly low. Did anyone using this notice a reduction of battery life, and I mean that in a more scientific way than just checking under battery in your system settings? Was it 5 minutes or 1 hour?

I just noticed the app Wave control that does something similar to this. I dont need all the features wave control has, so I wont be adding them. Buy the excellent app wave control if you want that.
