It would be nice if you need to copy & past between apps or multitask...I really wanted it to work smoothly. But it is a GREAT start. A few bug fixes and this tweak just might be the best!!!
To geek_riot...In Android it is VERY easy to switch between apps especially in Ice Cream Sandwich (Android 4.0.4)
Yeah, I had the new transformer (not the prime, but the tf300t). ICS is wonderful, but I only see one option for running two apps in windows side by side. It is something called cornerstone, and it has to be baked into the rom. So for now the iPad is the only practical option (aside from a windows tablet).

I meant the app switcher built into ICS (the 2 squares overlapping one another in the navigation bar). But I have tried cornerstone on Thor's TegraOwner's rom for the Acer Iconia A500....it's a good novelty but buggy. Plus the developers stopped support on it & there will be no further development. Quasar wasn't all that smooth & like I said it caused a reboot of my iPad. I am VERY leery on some of the tweaks on the iPad compared to Android because iOS is a closed system & much easier for issues to occur. Since Android is open & MEANT to be open any bugs that may occur usually are just force closes of apps. Quasar really is a big modification of how iOS was meant to work works.

I have ran it, but the issue I have is with the developer. He has already pushed all his efforts to the iPad3 and left the original issues unaddressed. I have tried contacting hip several times with no reponse. 10$ and limited support, buyer beware if you have issues. Not worth the cost without support

I have on my IPad 3 and it is not ready yet
Facetime didn't work, black screen, apps designed for iPhone had screwed up window
native gestures like for and five fingers didn't work.
This app has a potential but too buggy to use at this moment

It's such a unique tweak and potentially more useful on my iPad 3 with the greater resolution. I wish this developer would fix the obvious issue with how you activate it or not, and make it more flexible to use.

Using it if i need to listen to radio streaming in the background other than not..not really useful, it's something I think nice to have when you need it

It's very buggy on my iPad 1, I found that apps don't just crash, they freeze and force a complete restart. I am however learning which apps work, and this morning have 4 apps open without crashing. I added fullforce, I have no idea why it would add stability, it is probably just a coincidence. I did email the developer, he probably has a canned response, but to his credit he is trying to communicate. I think the app would be great for presentations, also running videos and radio streams in the background. Kind of pricey for such a buggy program, my suggestion to the developer was to offer a sale until he gets the worst bugs figured out (I think he is also adding requested features, which adds complexity to a fix). App has lots of potential, if you are willing to risk $10 it may be worth it as a novelty, but as a reliable tool it may not be ready yet.

Quasar, It's buggy. After installation on my iPad 3/5.1.1 it would not stay connected to wifi. Stayed connected fine to cellular. Uninstalled quasar and everything is working fine now. So I am looking for an alternative app for multitasking. Anyone have a good alternative?
