The trick is getting a screenshot of ur wallpaper as its set on ur phone. Not prefect but not many alternatives out there. ### 2/5 — No *2016-10-16, version 4.3* Do not buy. Doesn't work for multiple pages, fake icons show up in recent apps since they're just bookmarks. It's fine if you really want to have free roam with icons, but so many better ways to get it. ### 3/5 — Does It Need Updating For iOS 10? *2016-10-16, version 4.3* After following the directions, at least on my 6S running iOS 10, I could not get this app to do what it claims - as a previous review described, the resultant icons are overexposed & misaligned. Update: though artifacts still show when swiping between pages, I found out that this app does work. Here’s what I did: 1. Settings: under General, Accessibility, Reduce Motion: set to on 2. Wallpaper: use one that matches your iPhone’s screen size (not its parallax size), e.g. for 6/6S use 750Wx1334H (not 852Wx1608H) or for 5/5S use 640Wx1136H (not 744Wx1392H) 3. Screenshot: put your iPhone in wiggle mode, swipe to the last page (which is empty of icons) & take a screenshot 4. Wallpaper Liberator: when selecting an image, use only this screenshot to create the new icons (not the original wallpaper you installed) I’ve found that if the app is left open for a longer period of time, Safari will drop the connection & give an error, so you will have to restart the app. And every time you open the app, you are presented with the tutorial, so you will have to press the “Skip” button. But given the complexity of steps required, maybe this is a good idea! I updated my rating from 1 star to 3 stars. ### 4/5 — Love *2015-11-10, version 4.0* Clunky and time consuming to use. But, the only way to put blank spaces between icons on an iPhone. So, pretty much priceless in my world. ### 1/5 — Boooo *2015-04-13, version 4.0* App doesn't work a waste of money. I want my money back. It does nothing it said it would. The pictures never match up. Ugh I wish I could write this review and give no stars. I have never had a bad review as bad as this one ### 1/5 — Review *2015-01-06, version 4.0* This app does nothing like described in the photos. The app needs to be free. I would like a refund. ### 1/5 — Not worth it. *2014-03-30, version 3.4* Read all the bad reviews on this app before buying it. They're all true and correct. This app does not truly customize your home screen. Your wallpaper will not look the way you would like it to. Thank God it only costed me .99 cents! ### 1/5 — In theory good, reality- bad *2014-03-27, version 3.4* When selecting a personal photo for your background, the app stretches the photo making it impossible to match up with your correct photo that is your background, so they don't match up. ### 2/5 — ugh *2014-03-07, version 3.4* It's good, but frustrating, cause when setting the icons, sometimes the previous one set will change. ### 4/5 — Good App *2014-01-07, version 3.4* I've been using this app for a while now and it's great but the new IOS 7 update isn't as user friendly as the previous one. This update changed it back to where you can only make one background filler at a time instead of all of the ones you want all at once. If you bring that back it'd be awesome! ### 1/5 — Good idea, poor performance *2013-12-27, version 3.4* Good concept but the app shrinks photos making it impossible to match backgrounds ### 4/5 — App error *2013-12-21, version 3.4* I have purchased and have been using this apps and absolutely love it.... I would recommend this app to anyone interested in personalizing their home screen.. With that said, the current version lost the capability of selecting multiple icons to create at one time... This makes it time consuming to create for multiple screens... If possible, please bring back that function.. Thanks ### 4/5 — 4 stars *2013-10-30, version 3.2* Only thing I don't like about this app is when you click on one of the icons you created it takes you to a link in safari, take that out and it's a 5 star app! ### 1/5 — Not working with iPhone 5 beware *2013-05-11, version 2.1* Wouldn't have put any stars if there were that option. Awaiting refund... ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Updating previous bad review *2018-11-24, version 5.0* I loved this on my iPhone 7 but now on my XR it does not work the pictures are the wrong size ### 1/5 — Garbage *2016-09-29, version 4.3* I want a refund! ### 1/5 — Horrible *2016-09-14, version 4.3* Horrible ### 1/5 — Money thrown away *2016-07-08, version 4.2* This was definitely the worst purchase i made in my life. The icon is raised on the screen, your wallpaper looks like a puzzle made by Frankenstein if you use someone's picture on this ### 1/5 — Doesn't work, don't waste your money *2016-03-21, version 4.0* Doesn't work, the size is NEVER correct ### 1/5 — Worked one time, now it doesn't work. *2016-02-13, version 4.0* Worked one time, now it doesn't work. ### 1/5 — Waste of money *2016-01-29, version 4.0* Unfortunately I can't rate this app with zero stars, so I had to give 1. Don't waste your time or money on this junk app. It does not function properly. ### 1/5 — Does not work as advertised *2016-01-14, version 4.0* The app doesn't line up the icons properly and so it never fits with the wallpaper on IPhone 6.... Want my money back... ### 1/5 — DO NOT BUY *2015-05-03, version 4.0* Dont buy this app ,i really want my money back !! ### 1/5 — Do Not Buy *2015-04-21, version 4.0* This app stinks. It doesn't work as advertised!! I want my money back!! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Perfect for my needs *2016-01-27, version 4.0* Just purchased this app and it is precisely what I wanted. I use a black wallpaper and wanted to create spaces between some of the apps. If functions exactly as described and created the spaces that I wanted. Absolutely perfect for my needs. Prior to purchasing the app, I sent three emails to the developer and he responded quickly and with the information I needed so that I could decide whether or not I wanted the app. Excellent response. ### 5/5 — Great app! *2015-11-08, version 4.0* This app works great! Your wallpaper cannot be set to perspective mode. Used to use an old website to do this trick, but it no longer works. Very happy with the speed too!👍🏼👍🏼 ### 5/5 — Love this App *2015-10-31, version 4.0* Possibilities with this app! We need more home screen apps like this! ### 5/5 — awesome app! *2015-01-16, version 4.0* Works great if you have a densely patterned wallpaper ### 5/5 — Does exactly what it says it does! *2014-08-10, version 3.7* It's a fast, easy way to arrange my icons just the way I want them, letting me showcase the images just the way I want them seen. Worth every penny! 💜 ### 5/5 — Amazing! *2014-05-30, version 3.4* I have been using this for some time now. There have been a few bugs in the past but with the latest update it is working great! Love being able to make my background show through with the app! Keep up the good work! ### 5/5 — A must have for customization! *2013-05-09, version 2.1* This app works great in tandem with Pimp Your Screen! First use Pimp Your Screen to choose your background and crop it to the right size and add shelves or icon skins. Then use Wallpaper Liberator in just the right spots to bring out the background image. The best alternative to the hassle of jail breaking for customization that there is! ### 5/5 — Sweet! *2013-03-20, version 2.0.1* Lots of fun a great app too have. Does 100% what it says and worlds great. New favorite app !! ### 5/5 — Love This App!!! *2013-03-09, version 2.0.1* It is so easy to use and works perfectly! The only complaint is the app icon is hideous...so, I just delete it after I use it every time. With all the new updates it is really a perfect app for us who want to see our wallpaper in the background! Great job! Keep it up! ^* ### 5/5 — Great *2012-09-29, version 2.0.1* Works great --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
