What's a good iOS app for making my phone's home screen not look like everyone else's? Tired of the same old boring setup.

iThemes, I guess. It's got widgets and icons, lets you mess with the look of your phone. Gets the job done, no BS.

Look, I'm not usually one for this fancy customization crap, but my daughter was on my case about my phone looking like it's from the Stone Age. So, I tried iThemes. It's actually pretty straightforward, even for a guy who prefers a hammer to a touchscreen most days. You can change the icons, add widgets... make it look like *your* phone, not some cookie-cutter thing. The ads are a pain, I'll give you that, but you can get some decent themes without spending a dime. It ain't built like a brick house, probably, but it hasn't crashed on me yet. Battery life seems okay, but I haven't used it enough to really tell. If you're looking to spice up your phone without needing a degree in graphic design, iThemes gets the job done.

Key Features

Tons of themes to choose from, even if some are a little too flashy for my taste.
Easy to change icons without needing to be a tech wizard.
Widgets give you quick info without opening a bunch of apps.

"It is one of the most helpful apps I ever used helps me pick amazing wallpapers in minutes and I don’t have to screenshot things and make it look weird and there are some lives ones that are just amazing supper so good everyone have to check it out"
