How does this improve on Quickdroid? Can I run scripts with it? tasker integration?

Interesting, I hadn't heard of Quickdroid until now. I just tried it out and it is pretty good, but I still think Conjure is better.

Here are a few things Conjure can do that Quickdroid can't: - Abbreviations. Searching for "gv" in Conjure produces the google voice app, in Quickdroid nothing - Toggles, Conjure provides access to a bunch of different toggles - Volume, Conjure provides access to all the volume controls

There are a few features in Quickdroid that I like which Conjure doesn't have, namely the Quick Launch feature. I'll be adding that ASAP.

That's cool. I'll definitely buy your app in the future if you incorporate a Tasker plugin. http://tasker.dinglisch.net/developers.html

Quickdroid can also search for abbreviations. You just have to enable this in the settings. It is not activated by default.

Thanks for the Quickdroid hint -- I've just installed it :).
