Gradient 1.0.1.0
To ease the choice and offer a means of turning colors around with a few swipes and taps, Gradient was developed. This application will help you make the Start screen background look original every time you need it to.
Clean GUI for mixing colors
The application offers a simple interface that hosts all the commands and functions inside a single screen. The conveniently placed sliders allow the color choosing to be made with minimal efforts, while changing the orientation of the pattern is just as easy to carry out.
The responsive preview allows you to instantly view how the modifications will look like after they are applied. A noticeable letdown is the presence of the ad banners inside the main screen, on the lower part of the workspace.
Pick colors and switch them around to obtain the optimal arrangement
Deciding the layout of the background can be a fun job when Gradient is on the case. The app comes with up to 8 independent layers you can use and you are allowed to assign to each of them a different color or hue in a few moments.
Modifying the orientation of the whole mixture is even easier, thanks to the dedicated slider placed in the left side of the screen.
The position of each gradient on the workspace can be modified by holding and moving the colored tile corresponding to each of them. When all the work is done, you can save it and the resulting picture will be ready for use as a background from the "Saved Pictures" folder.

Bottom Line
Design / UI8
The uncomplicated interface, with a plain yet practical appearance helps user get the job done quickly. There is only one impediment in the way, namely the continuously changing advertisements that spoil the good feel of the whole experience. |
Function9
Very easy to use and packing enough features to let any user create original patterns in no time, Gradient serves its purpose pretty well and allows for a nice colorful customization of the Start screen. |
Security9
Pretty well behaved overall, the app leaves the secure areas of the system untouched, without requiring access in restricted places. |
Battery8
The power consumption is generally low, but if used for longer periods of time, the app will draw a moderate amount of energy from the battery. |
Price9
Since it offers all its feature free of cost and is able to carry out the task it was meant for speedily and with very nice results, Gradient scores very well in this respect. |
Compatibility7
The use of this app is limited by the capabilities of the operating system, which makes it suitable only for Windows Phone 8.1 handsets. |
A nice wizard of hues and colors
