Circuitous: Multitasking App for Jailbroken iPhone\iPodTouch

There are quite a few multitasking apps for jailbroken iPhone\iPodTouch devices, like ProSwitcher and Multifl0w, Circuitous is another app that offers another good user experience to toggle between applications.

Dan Zimmerman, the developer behind Circuitous calls it a "custom app switcher".

This app provides a clean interface to switch between the various active applications. Unlike ProSwitcher and Multifl0w where users need to move away from the existing iPhone app to surf through other active applications, Circuitous displays all the active iPhone apps in a vertical dock that can be accessed from any screen of your iPhone.

Using Circuitous, it is possible to activate the custom dock through several shortcuts like short-holding the Sleep button, double pressing the Home button and\or double tapping the status bar on your iPhone. The new version of Circuitous (v1.1) also offers additional features like closing and reordering active apps with simple gestures.Also, users may cycle forward or backward through the various open applications using shortcuts defined about, and can be controlled from the Settings Menu.

Check out the video below to see the app in action:
