adding to "Recent Drawer"

[Nuor60]

So has anyone stumbled upon a way to add non B&N Apps's etc to Recent Drawer ? Since it sits there anyway I thought I might get a bit broader use from it.

Unfortunately as for me, no. However, I have downloaded an app known as "TaskSwitcher" and I use that as a way to multi-task on the Nook HD+. Also it can close apps by just holding the icon down, so it's an effective switcher and manager.

Although it would be great to use B&N's recent app drawer, I think they've just modified it too much. Perhaps we can eventually modify it ourselves and get other apps to display.

Take a look at Recent Plus, too. Haven't used Task Switcher, but RP shows both Android and BN apps, and actually works better for resuming a Flipboard session than the BN app drawer does - the BN app drawer takes me back to the top of the news, where Recent Plus drops me back to the article I was reading.

Since its gimped as a Recent Drawer, I actually changed it to the Reading Now button. Clicking on it let's me choose either the BN stock reader or another reader I've installed (Mantano) to open the last book I was reading. Go to Settings > Applications > Home and unchecked Show my Recent Drawer.
