       Microsoft might have struck a deal with Nokia, making it their
       favorite hardware manufacturer, but HTC hasn’t given up on
       Windows Phone 7 by any means. The latest proof of HTC’s
       commitment to the metro platform is the spike in apps released
       for Mango and the renovated HTC Hub (which has lost its excess
       graphics and added greater functionality). HTC Dock Mode,
       available in the HTC app zone of the Marketplace, is a free app
       that essentially turns your phone into a side-table clock and
       music player in the time that it’s charging or not in use. The
       app is particularly useful if you have a charging dock for your
       HTC Windows Phone or your phone has a kick stand (like the HD7)
       . Although the app is called Dock Mode, your device doesn’t
       necessarily have to be docked to use this app. All you need is
       an HTC device running on Mango and you’ll be able to use this
       app.
       Dock Mode is a cross between a cosmetic app and a utility. The
       app has beauty and just for that, might warrant a download for
       some users. But if you are not one to go for mere looks, you
       should know it has some pretty useful functions to offer too.
       You can think of Dock Mode as an alternative lock screen for
       your phone.

       Weather And Clock Widget
       Automatically detecting your current location (if you allow it
       to, of course), the app displays the current temperature in your
       area. This temperature reading is grouped with HTC’s trademark
       digital flip-clock widget. You can switch between two levels of
       screen brightness at which Dock Mode runs by tapping on the sun
       icon at the bottom of the screen.
       Music Player
       The app includes a widget for music too. The widget’s interface
       matches that of the stock Windows Phone 7 music app. The music
       is, of course, from your phone’s library.
       Photo Frame
       The app lets you use your HTC WP7 as a photo frame which will
       keep playing a slideshow of photos from the Pictures Hub. Like
       the rest of the app, this option works both in landscape and
       vertical mode. You can alter the slideshow speed and the source
       folder of the pictures. You can even customize animation styles
       from within the app’s settings. Alternatively, you may tap
       anywhere on the screen while the slideshow is playing to access
       its settings.
