Circle Tile Pack 1.0.0.0
Those who want to personalize their Windows Phone devices have at their disposal a series of tools for tinkering with the Start screen, lock screen and wallpaper options, but not many are the apps which bring fun innovations like the round tiles you will find inside Circle Tile Pack.
Well organized interface, with cool graphics
The appearance of this utility is quite common, as it focuses on providing a collection of custom made tiles that can replace the default shortcuts you currently have onto your Start screen.
Moving around the various sections of the app and going through the long lists of items are done smoothly and without any delays or other types of glitches.
The background image is very discreet, but adds a nice touch to the whole aspect, while the actual tiles you can select have a polished finish that gives them a professional look.
Pin any tile with one tap
Using the application is extremely easy, because all you have to do is pick a shortcut and by tapping it have it sent automatically to the Start screen. Browsing the numerous tiles included in the Circle Tile Pack collection is made easier by the jumplist feature that is built-in the app.
The items are structured into 2 main categories, each of them alphabetically ordered, so you can visit either the "Apps" section or the "Native" one.
The first area contains shortcuts to the most commonly used third-party Windows Phone apps, while the second focuses exclusively on system functions that you might be interested in having closer at hand.
Customize the looks of each tile
Circle Tile Pack enables you to manually select the desired color that you want to apply on the tiles while making your selection and this can be changed after adding every single fresh tile, so you can have a variety of colors onto your Start screen.
There is yet another adjustment you can make from the same area, more precisely you can use the opacity slider to set the tile transparency anywhere between 0 (completely see-through) and 100 (full opacity).
Another neat characteristic of this app is that the tiles it comes with support all sizes, so you can have completely round (small and medium tiles) or with rounded edges (wide tiles).
