Quick Tools 1.3.0.1
Windows Phone users have at their disposal a pretty diversified choice insofar as the apps made to offer quick access to system tasks and settings are concerned. Nonetheless, those tailored to take care of some other jobs as well are not too common and Quick Tools is one of these applications.
Customizable interface with a professional look
The smooth graphics that greet you as soon as you launch the utility are a good indicator for the kind of tools that are packed inside, as this time, the appearance is very much in tune with the functionality.
Navigating among the various sections of the utility has a smooth feel to it and there are no lags or other similar glitches. The information is well structured and presented in a clean and easy to understand manner.
Should you care to give Quick Tools a different look, simply head on to the "Setting" menu and pick one of the cool themes available in there.
On the downside, there are several menu elements and also some information presented in another language than English, which makes it impossible to fully enjoy the respective functions or details.
Add shortcuts to the Start menu or customize the app's own launcher
This utility makes it possible for you to easily pin shortcut tiles for any system area or specific tool available inside the application, but they only support small and medium sizes.
Rearranging the tiles inside the app's own launch area is a breeze and it can be done in the same manner you would treat the items on the Start screen of your phone.
System details and performance boost
Quick Tools puts at your fingertips a wide variety of options, so you will be able to visit some system areas with one tap and also carry out some tests like the one for identifying dead or stuck pixels or the network speed test.
The toolset includes some handy features that allow you to clean the system cache, update installed apps or download new ones. A QR code scanner is included as well, alongside the compass and flashlight tools.
Viewing detailed system info or browsing a large database of wallpapers to download some fresh pics are possible. A neat button for stopping the music playback from the Start screen is also up for grabs.
The built-in battery management module not only presents basic info about the battery status, but also enables you to view how much time is left for various activities like calls, data connection, WiFi or gaming, to name just a few of them. The "Battery Saver" area is made to help you deactivate some power consuming features with a couple of taps.
