SmartLight Automatic Backlight 1.05 for Windows Mobile Pocket PC

Tired of the display backlight suddenly dimming when you are looking at the screen - e.g. while thinking about the right word for an email? Wouldn't it be nice if your PocketPC knew when you needed the light and when not? SmartLight adds this automatic backlight feature to your PocketPC: Once you have opened an application, the backlight stays on - until you close or hide the application, switching off the light automatically.

SmartLight runs as a background application. It features a control screen that can be accessed by selecting SmartLight from the programs folder, or via a Task Manager. With SmartLight running, the backlight stays on as long as an application window is visible. Once the user returns to the Today Screen, the backlight will dim as normal (i.e. after the period selected in Backlight Settings). The light will also go out as normal after system notifications about new messages, calls, etc.

For maximum effect, we recommend setting the backlight time-out period to the minimum of 10 seconds. (Go to Settings > System Tab > Backlight)

NOTE: There is a known issue with the backlight on WM 6.1 devices manufactured by HTC that prevents SmartLight from functioning properly. Programs like Kaiser Tweak and PDAstatus offer workarounds for this problem. Before purchasing SmartLight, please use the free trial to check if SmartLight works on your HTC manufactured device.
