Atom Lock Screen Launcher Gets iPad Support

Atom, the lock screen launcher from Daniel Turner & Surenix, has been updated with support for the iPad. Atom lets you easily launch up to six different applications right from your lock screen.

When you think about it, the Lock Screen is the first thing you see when you turn your iPhone/iPod touch on, yet what you do in the Lock Screen is very limited. That's where atom comes in. atom extends the use of the Lock Screen by allowing you the option to choose between any of 6 applications you want to launch, right from your Lock Screen. Getting to your favourite applications has never been so quick and intuitive. atom also re-imagines a new and innovative way of unlocking your iPhone/iPod touch with the ease of almost a flick (up) gesture.
