Christmas Tiles 1.1.0.0
Those Windows Phone users who are fond of snow globes, Christmas trees, stars, snow man figures or candy canes will surely find a friend in a fun application that goes by the name of Christmas Tiles.
Amusing looks and good organization of the content
The appearance of this utility is very much in tone with its purpose, so you will have a fun time using it. The winter-inspired graphics are well designed, with extra care for details, so every ornament you choose will look great onto the Start screen.
There are a few categories under which the decorations are kept for easy retrieval, so it will be a pretty much effortless undergoing to give your phone a Christmassy look.
A minor letdown is represented by the delays in loading the lists of ornaments when accessing the dedicated areas of the utility, while the occasional prompts to rate the app will also nag you a bit.
Easily pick and add adornments to the Start screen
Whether you have a soft spot for Christmas spheres of all kinds or you would like to add some gingerbread decorations onto your main screen, this app is ready to help you.
The tiles you pin to the Start support two sizes, namely small and medium, so they can be relatively quickly integrated and mingled among the app shortcuts that are already present. Also, the diversity of models is pretty impressive, especially in the "Others" section.
Functional app tiles with a Christmas theme
Inside this application you have a special section called "Tasks" where a few decorations are in store and they are meant to serve as personalized shortcuts for some apps that you might have installed, like Facebook or WhatsApp.
A less pleasant aspect you will notice almost as soon as you open Christmas Tiles is the prompt to review the app in order to view some of the ornaments. Fortunately, you can simply visit that page without taking other action than pressing the back button on your handset to return to the category listing and immediately become able to use the nice adornments.
