Guest shirozina Posted August 24, 2008 Report Posted August 24, 2008 Lets face it WM has a pretty clunky and fiddly interface even with HTC home. I would like to be able to use more finger navigation on the screen rather than stylus and buttons. There seem to be quite a few iphone emulators out there some free and some not but are any truly workable?
Guest awarner (MVP) Posted August 24, 2008 Report Posted August 24, 2008 To actually emulate the iphone OS or any OS for that matter takes a bit of processing power which would make the phone even slower. The so called "emulators" are normally looks a likes rather than true emulation of the actual iphone.

Guest Confucious Posted August 26, 2008 Report Posted August 26, 2008 Spb Mobile shell makes WM far more user friendly - works well on my Athena, not sure about the Kaiser. But it's not an iPhone emulator!

Guest Webreaper Posted August 26, 2008 Report Posted August 26, 2008 So why post about iPhone emulators? Why not post "GUI enhancements for touchscreen" or something? :D
Guest shirozina Posted August 26, 2008 Report Posted August 26, 2008 So why post about iPhone emulators? Why not post "GUI enhancements for touchscreen" or something? :D with such pedantry - I'm regreting it already......... :D Seriously though - I have S2U2 which I think is fantasticand makes the phone much more usable. I've tried PointUI but didn't like it. I've used an iphone and think the touch icon selection is a fantastic solution for a phone interface - it makes WM6 look like a comand line interface. I've just got a Brodit car holder and the phone has now taken over Sat nav duties from my old Garmin Streetpilot but having to fiddle about with buttons, scroll wheels and a stylus is not very user freindly when at the wheel whereas pushing a set of on screen icons to select various phone functions is.

But it's not an iPhone emulator! WOW - just downloaded this and it could be exactly what I'm after. Works fine with my Kaiser so far! Thanks for the tip!
