  1. 3/5Lack of features

    Overall this is a great app but I am disappointed that you cannot use your own icon over the background in the customization feature. Your app makes it so simple to use the pre loaded icons but I have a few of my own designs that have transparent backgrounds that I would like to use over the wallpaper screenshot, but to do that I have to make it myself from the screenshot in procreate. Just an unnecessary step if you would just allow an upload feature. If I’m missing something or this is changed I’d happily change my review to 5 stars!

  2. 2/5Unnecessarily time consuming

    I really appreciate this app and the developer, and I have no issues with how the icons are created. They come out perfect everytime. My issue is with the user interface. Now with IOS16, I want to make sets of transparent icons for multiple lock/home screens. To do that, you need to upload a screenshot of the home screen, choose a position on the screen, choose an icon, and save it, then repeat up to 28 times. It’s a process that is incredibly inefficient if you want to use this app to make icon images for more than 1 lock screen. I wish the positions kept their icons after you download them and AFTER YOU REMOVE THE SCREENSHOT (EXTREMELY IMPORTANT CRITICISM)*, and that you could set an icon for each position, then save all 28 icons at once. This would save the time needed to download all the icons individually. *Ok so, imagine that after you save an icon for one screenshot, the icon would stay in that same position afterwards, lets say the top left most position with a photos icon. Now, that position will always be photos unless you change it of course. Most importantly, the icon and position do not change when you upload a new screenshot. So you could save the same icon with a different background without having to choose the same icon for a second time. If this was added, it would make creating sets of icons in the same position for a different background incredibly easy and quick. If you can make this a reality, 5 stars easily.

  3. 5/5LOVE THIS APP

    I was super reluctant to purchase this app, for the simple fact that I just don't love paying for apps. Then I was like, it's $2, I'll just give it a try. It is a GAME CHANGER. I am so impressed. I used to try to do this aesthetic the free way for a long time. My former method stopped working for me: the images just wouldn't line up and I had to do a lot of manual cropping even when it kind of worked. This app makes everything so seamless and perfect. I love that it's a one-time purchase, as opposed to a subscription. And it works so amazingly! It does almost all the work for me; no more tedious cropping and adjusting to make it fit. The interface is ridiculously easy to use and I am in love with the results!

  4. 5/5The quest for simple Home Screen

    I was (I completed it) on a quest for the perfect Lock Screen. Minimal clutter, transparent background, clean icons, no noise. I have found it. This app allows you to take the picture of your wallpaper and create transparent app icons which in tandem with shortcuts makes the perfect wallpaper and Home Screen. I used to just have my a boring black background to match the apps, but now I have my favorite picture without getting it blocked! 100% worth the $2 I spent to get this. It would have cost me way more time to do it all myself, AND on top of learning how to do it. Thank you.

  5. 5/5Phenomenal App and Staff

    The amount of customization allowed for not only the given app icons, but also the allowance of outside icons to be imported, this paired with its extensive library of icons in app already In addition, its reliability to update in accordance to Apple’s own update to the new icon placement Lastly the dev/s, they were quick to respond to any questions or concerns, and were open to any suggestions that might possibly help the app, or any questions upon any updates looking forward
