But it&#8217;s not an App Store application &#8230; <!--more--><\/p>\n<p>What is clever about DashPad is it requires no jail-breaking or Apple approval. In fact, DashPad runs in Mobile Safari, exclusively on the iPad OS. <\/p>\n<p>Not only does it work, but it looks great too. There are no crazy menus or confusing layouts; it&#8217;s clean on every level. Plus, if you leave DashPad or reload the page, your widgets remain exactly where you left them, saved via cookies. <\/p>\n<p>Purchasble via @Paypal for $9.99, the app circumvents the iPad&#8217;s limitation of running only one app at a time. The company notes that while they realize that this may change in the future, the DashPad delivers a solution now, eager to push the solution to as many people as possible. <\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>At only $9.99, we think you&#8217;ll find DashPad a useful addition to your already cool iPad. After purchasing DashPad, you will receive an email containing a unique password. You are directed to a login page where you enter that password, and will then be taken to the DashPad download. DashPad is for anyone that wants to run small applications simultaneously. <\/p>\n<p>If you need to quickly check the time or add some numbers, DashPad is for you. Widgets are constantly added to DashPad to improve the user experience, so its&#8217; functionality grows over time. Updates are one of our favorite things to do, so expect them often. Minor updates such as bug fixes or new widgets will be free. However, if a huge feature is added, a priced update might occur.
