CodeJoker, who have been instrumental in the creation of a number of homebrew apps, has just released another small utility reminiscent of Windows Mobile.

Their app is a simple shortcut to the WIFI settings menu on Windows Phone 7, saving exactly one tap. Of course if one toggle’s one’s WIFI constantly this may certainly be worthwhile.

Beau Allison is continuing his work, and his next project is a connection manager of sorts, combining WIFI and Bluetooth shortcuts. All the software of course needs developer unlocked devices.

Leaving aside the debate about homebrew software, do our readers feel much need to switch their WIFI and Bluetooth on and off. I personally find power management is good enough on Windows Phone 7 that I am perfectly happy to leave both WIFI and Bluetooth running constantly, making this app not something I have been eagerly waiting for.
