Give your lock screen a personal touch with a specialized tool for your Windows Phone
The personalization of Windows Phone devices can take quite a few forms and one of the system areas that is preponderantly subject to tweaks and modifications is the lock screen.

For Windows Phone users this kind of modifications may need some specialized tools to carry out and for those who are eager to create fresh backgrounds using the photos stored onto their handsets, [+]Lockscreen Style is here to help.

Friendly and smart front-end

This application comes with a friendly and pretty well designed GUI that features some amazing backgrounds and well designed graphics. The main commands are placed in the lower part of the screen for quick access.

A generous workspace offers a very good perspective of the image and the responsiveness of the preview area is very good, while the navigation among the various section of the app is smooth and glitch-free.

While working on the new lock screen backgrounds you will surely notice the annoying ad banners that are glued to the upper side of the main screen where they are constantly changing.

Pick the layout and add the pics

With this utility you get over a dozen background layout templates by default, each offering a different way of displaying the lock screen information. You only have to pick the one you want to apply and start personalizing it on the spot.

With a tap on each free slot you have the possibility to load a photo from your albums and before it is included in the project, you will have to crop it to fit the default size proposed by [+]Lockscreen Style.

Editing options at a glance

This application provides a nice array of effects you can apply onto the image you are creating and you can check out how they will look by simply tapping on each filter from the right side menu that appears when you tap the corresponding button from the main menu.

With this utility you can include text strings or various geometrical shapes in the design or modify the color of the backgrounds for each slot in case you don't want to use a pick on the locked screen.

There is a preview feature that enables you to check out the lock screen wallpaper and with a tap on the "Save" button you can have the wallpaper sent in your image library. The app can also be used as lock screen provider and it will immediately put on there the picture on the canvas.
