Flick The Tongue 1.0.0.0

Of the numerous means of personalizing the looks of a mobile phone users will often go for some specialized tools that can give them just a little bit more control over some functions related to this type of customization.

Flick The Tongue is one such application and it provides an amusing way of locking and unlocking the screen, featuring some simple personalization options as well.

Uncomplicated look made for ease of use

The utility comes with a neat background wallpaper inside the main screen and has a set of cool graphics that you can enjoy in every section of the app, particularly when glancing at the lock screen.

Moving around inside Flick The Tongue has a smooth feel to it, but there is a constant source of irritation represented by the ad banners that appear in several areas of the screen and are constantly changing.

Really bothersome as they obstruct some functions from the main menu, these adverts appear onto the lock screen and will get in the way when trying to input the access code if the password feature is active.

Quick customization and simple launching procedure

Flick The Tongue enables you to start learning how to operate it even from the first run, when it provides some handy instructions to get you going with the basic configuration and usage steps. In case you want to review those advices, you can start the tutorial at any moment from the main menu.

The personalization of the app consists mainly in selecting the desired start screen image from the photos you keep inside the dedicated folder onto your phone.

You can choose to pin a shortcut on the Start screen to activate the lock with one tap or you can go for the toast notification method and carry out the operation from the notification center.

Lock screen protection and on-screen information

This utility makes it possible for you to protect the unlock sequence by adding an access code that is a simple 4 digit combination you set up from the main menu. Nonetheless, the actual design of the graphics will get in the way and you will not be able to use the digits covered by the tongue drawing, so pick your code with extra care.

Despite this presumable security measure, there is one major flaw for this app that renders this extra protection useless. More precisely, by tapping the "Back" or the "Start" buttons you will exit Flick The Tongue and access the phone without further restrictions.

Even so, the application manages to provide a set of handy details at a glance while the lock screen in displayed, so you can check out the batter level, the status of he WiFi and cellular networks, besides the usual date and time info.
