Release: Safari Tab Closer

[volatile-dev]

Do you love the tabs in Mobile Safari, but hate having to close them one at a time? I sure do, so I came up with Safari Tab Closer. It provides a quick and simple way of closing all of the open tabs in Mobile Safari. An added bonus is that when there are no tabs open, Mobile Safari actually closes its process when you close it freeing up at least 17 MB of memory for other apps!

Once you've installed it from Cydia, it's very simple to use. First, press and hold the tabs button in the bottom right corner of Mobile Safari:

Then, press the Close All Tabs button:

That's it!

Very useful plug-in. I have one suggestion. Can you also make an option to close all tabs + exit safari? I always use the plug-in right before i exit out of safari and it would make one less button press to accomplish it. Thanks.
