But it is so annoying to have to go through a pop up window and tell it to open an app every time I click on the shortcut. Yes, I want to open that app. You don’t have to ask me every single time. It ends up taking longer to open the app with the shortcut than if I had clicked on the app itself. Love the idea of being able to customize my icons on my iPhone. I don’t know if this is just a thing with Apple phones or what, but it got so annoying I just stopped using it. Not to mention the dozens of blank black windows it left open in Safari each time I opened an app via the shortcuts. If any of these things change in the future I’d be happy to use this app again, but until then I’m afraid I won’t be using it. ### 3/5 — Don't do this *2020-03-18, version 2.3.5* You can simply add your own picture in shortcuts, and it doesn't hide apps ### 3/5 — Freezes & crashes about half the time *2020-03-09, version 2.3.5* Freezes & crashes about half the time - otherwise great! ### 3/5 — icons *2020-01-14, version 2.3.5* Any way that i could get the custom icon to appear on lock screen? if so would make my rating to 5 stars. ### 4/5 — Pretty good, just missing a couple apps *2019-12-15, version 2.3.4* I’m totally missing the apps: Notes Dreamdays Disney+ Please if you can have someone respond with some urls for those apps. Thank you so very much💕 ### 3/5 — The free version works great but... *2019-11-01, version 2.3.1* I would give five stars for the way the app works. It is very user friendly and you can use your own website URLs in addition to the thousands in their database. But: #1 there are very few websites that I visit more than a few times and thereby need to have them on my home screen as icons. #2 there are only a very few Icons on their database that I can used to replace replace the ones that I keep on my home screen. (perhaps six or seven of the 50 or 60 that use)... for those two reasons I would give perhaps one or two stars. So far the overall rating, as an average, my Rating is three stars. I hope the Developers will find a way to replace the apps that are bundled in my iPhone to start with, with the great icons that I would like to create for myself. ### 3/5 — Ok But *2019-10-28, version 2.3.1* The app is ok and it does exactly what it says. It would get 5 stars if it had a better variety of apps and icon notifications letting you know you have a message. You will never know you have a Emil message if you don’t click on the icon. ### 3/5 — Badges? *2019-09-17, version 2.2.3* Any chance there is a way to still have badge notifications using this app. Can’t tell if I get a msg. Unless I keep the actual icon still on the home page to see it there. Kinda defeats the hiding purpose. Other than that it works well! ### 1/5 — Waste of Money *2019-08-23, version 2.2.3* I found better apps that don't charge and provide more. I regret wasting my money on this. ### 2/5 — Suspicious *2019-08-16, version 2.2.3* I love the idea of this but I didn’t know it scanned all of my apps. I understand why it might have to do this but didn’t like the idea so I deleted it. ### 1/5 — Keeps crashing *2019-08-07, version 2.2.3* Crashes every time I try to open it. ### 4/5 — Does what it says, but has some downsides *2019-07-30, version 2.2.3* The fact that the shortcuts don’t have notification badges was a downside I didn’t consider but understand, but the shortcut remaining open in your app switcher is one that should be fixed if possible. The brief delay in opening the app is also a small price to pay for custom icons. All in all, it’s good but not perfect. ### 1/5 — App does not work-crashes *2019-07-26, version 2.2.3* Well I paid $2.99 for this app excited five the 4.0 star review. The app will not even load. It’s just black, spins and crashes my phone. Plus there is no way to contact them other than leaving a review. Hopefully they will be issuing my refund soon. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Do not buy *2021-07-04, version 2.4.2* Stupid doesn’t work instructions might as well be in a foreign language. Can’t get it to work as it gets stuck ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work correctly *2020-09-30, version 2.4.2* I just downloaded this app and it doesn’t do what it’s suppose to do. When i went to add my new icon to the screen it shows a screenshot of the page that tells you how to add it to the screen as the icon. Worst $3 ever spent ### 1/5 — Bad *2020-09-25, version 2.4.1* The reason why I give this only one star is because I payed for this and it not coming up and the app I set it up to be ### 1/5 — Stupid program *2020-08-21, version 2.3.7* Don’t buy this program!! I thought initially it was nice, but every time you go back and forth between the app and another app it restarts itself cancelling out whatever you were in the process of doing. Having to start over. Say you set up a screen button for your work schedule. You click on it, looking at your schedule and wait, need to look at your calendar. You move to the calendar and back to the schedule which is now closed and you have to re-login and get to the pool lace you were. Stupid!!! ### 1/5 — Won’t download *2020-07-17, version 2.3.6* I downloaded this app thinking “oh this will be fun” .I pay for the app wait for it to download and still on the “installing” and I can’t delete the app. Sorry if I came off as rude but it was on my mind ### 1/5 — Irritated *2020-07-15, version 2.3.6* Would be good if it actually worked instead of glitching out when i tried to change the app icon picture. Honestly not happy i paid $3 for nothing ### 1/5 — Not good *2020-05-20, version 2.3.5* This app was super complicated to use and I did not like it at all. Definitely would like a refund for it. ### 1/5 — So limited *2020-02-27, version 2.3.5* I paid for this app and it has a so limited range of apps. No the ones I need. I want my money back. ### 1/5 — Did not work *2020-01-22, version 2.3.5* I wasted a lot of time with this. Finally changed the look but the icons would not open the app. These are 2 very common apps- nest and waze. Disappointed ### 1/5 — Not worth 2.99 *2019-12-28, version 2.3.4* Don’t waste your money, all it does is create a shortcut icon to the app, you can’t actually change the icon for the app itself. I wouldn’t hate on it so hard if it was free but at $3 it’s just not worth it ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — I’m amazed *2020-12-12, version 2.4.2* Easy to use and the dev got be to me within hours for a ton of apps I wanted skins on that had name changes or other properties. Quickest support I’ve seen in an app ### 5/5 — Very Useful *2020-08-19, version 2.3.7* This app is simple to use and it just works as promised. ### 5/5 — Fabulous APP -WORKS GREAT!!!! *2020-05-16, version 2.3.5* This app is absolutely fantastic and works as advertised! i’ve been using it for years now and really rely on it. The support is also equally exceptional - same hour or same day response! 5 BIG STARS! ### 5/5 — Question (rly good tho) *2020-01-22, version 2.3.5* What’s the URL for Gacha Life?:) ### 5/5 — This is an excellent app. *2019-12-28, version 2.3.4* It makes you easily able to customize your phone and create a unique look that no other iOS user will have. Similar things can be accomplished with the shortcuts app but it’s not nearly as easy and intuitive and is definitely worth the buy. 10/10 ! ### 5/5 — Fast Tech Response *2019-08-01, version 2.2.3* If you ever have a question - just email the help. I had an response to my inquiry within 5 minutes!! ### 5/5 — Great *2019-07-15, version 2.2.3* This app has been wonderful for making my apps all look alike through personal art. ### 5/5 — FIXED! yea! share extension fixed! *2019-06-23, version 2.2.3* developer response is fast! using share in the app store on an app to more directly get this iconical app to work to make a shortcut on a particular app is better than waiting forever for all possible shortcut-able apps to load in this app. thanks! ### 5/5 — LOVE IT!!! 👍 *2019-05-25, version 2.2.2* AMAZING!!! I love this app a lot. I have been looking for a good icon changing app for a while, and when i tried this one, it works AMAZINGLY!!! anyone that's out there looking for an icon changing app, I highly recommend this one! 👍 ### 5/5 — Good app *2019-03-17, version 2.2.1* It took me awhile to figure out how to use it though --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
