A Must-Have Task Manager for Symbian S60

handy_taskman_animated_2“Must-have” might sound a little extreme, but Handy TaskMan certainly qualifies as a “you ought to try it”. Murray Alexander did just that and likes what he sees on his Symbian S60 device. The app is a full-featured smartphone Task Manager with several key functions. Press and hold your phone’s home key to see a list of the running apps. From here, you can kill one specific app or the whole lot of ‘em. Handy TaskMan shows memory information also lets you find and start apps simply by starting to type their name.

There’s no question the software is handy; after all, it made last year’s “Top 10 Apps for Your Symbian Phone” at GigaOM. It really becomes a question of cost. Is $19.95 worth the functionality for you? Luckily you can try it first through Handango to make an informed decision. Handy TaskMan is supported on Symbian S60 3rd edition.
