ShakeSMS Application - Shaking Nokia Phone to Read Text Message

ShakeSMS Application - Shaking Nokia Phone to Read Text Message. ShakeSMS is an application for Nokia phones that allows you to answer text messages by simply shaking the handset. ShakeSMS is another accelerometer powered application from the Mr Tong Ren, developer of the very well known and very popular FlipSilent application. Shaking a phone to read text messages is as intuitive as swiping your finger across the screen to unlock it, but once you're trained it becomes second nature.

This new application deals with SMS and Phone Lock using the Accelerometers technology, to make you use the phone in an easier way! If you are too lazy to unlock your keypad and read your text messages, you will surely love ShakeSMS - a new mobile application enabling Nokia Nseries users to read SMS just by shaking their mobile phones.

Normally without ShakeSMS: you need to unlock the phone first, then read the message, after replying, lock the phone again.
With ShakeSMS: you just shake your phone, you can read the sms; shake it again, it goes back and phone locked!

The video shows how it works. Just shake your phone to read the message even if the keypad is locked, read the message, shake it again to return to the main menu and lock the keypad. Though many users may find this cool, it is virtually useless. The idea behind ShakeSMS is to reduce the number of steps to read text messages. Then again, how hard is it to read a text message?

Just by looking at the video you will see how sensitive it is to slight movements. Even if you're walking this might open your inbox by mistake. Not a good companion if you are always on the go or have an active lifestyle.
