Connectivity Box 2.0.0.0

A tool that brings the most commonly used system settings at your fingertips
Despite a relatively simple structuring of the system functions in Windows Phone, many users find it a hassle to go through a couple of menus and scroll through a long list just to find a simple switch that activates or disables a certain function.

To make this a lot easier and more convenient for everyone, some specialized apps, like Connectivity Box have been developed and they make it possible to reach such system areas with a single tap.

Clean and simple GUI for fast operation

This application will greet you with a tidy layout that has a decent look, though nothing out of the ordinary. The rather dull color scheme can be overlooked easily, mainly because of the good design of the shortcuts.

The generously sized tiles take up almost all the space inside the home screen and they are neatly arranged, waiting to be used to access the system settings or to be pinned to the Start screen. Here and there you will see some prompts to rate the app that can be dismissed and deactivated with a couple of taps.

Instant access to the desired areas from inside the app or from the Start screen

Connectivity Box does very well what it is supposed to, namely allows you to get to the desired sections of the system in a jiffy. With shortcuts to the cellular, WiFi, bluetooth, Airplane mode, rotation, location, lock screen and battery saver, this tool covers some of the more often visited settings.

With a single tap on the dedicated button, each of these tiles can be pinned to the Start screen, so as to make it even more easy for you to get to the desired area of the system and make the necessary modifications.

  • users can pin the shortcut tiles to the Start screen with one tap 

misses

  • unappealing interface
  • needs a lot more shortcuts
Bottom Line
Design / UI6
 

The plain looks of the app will certainly not steal the show, especially because of the monotonous color scheme and the oversized tiles that cannot even fit properly all in the same screen and users have to scroll a few lines to view them all.

Function7
 

Connectivity Box offers a basic amount of shortcuts and will surely cut the time needed to access those areas. Nonetheless, it could certainly do with a lot more items in its list and some extra options for the pinned tiles.

Security9
 

A well-behaved app overall, the utility still requires for some reason that the location services are active in order to install and function properly.

Battery9
 

Barely noticeable when running, this application keeps the power consumption well below average levels and makes sure the battery usage is minimal.

Price10
 

This freebie is quite handy to have and will surely be of great help for those who want to access with one tap certain areas of the system.

Compatibility8
 

Only those with more recent handsets, powered by Windows Phone 8 and above will be able to enjoy having Connectivity Box installed.
