## Description

The **App Icon & App Name Changer** Chrome extension allows you to personalize your mobile apps by creating custom shortcuts with unique icons and names. It does not alter the original app but lets you add shortcuts to your home screen featuring a customized icon and app name.

You can change app icons by selecting photos from your mobile gallery or using the built-in icon editor tool. The editor offers features like adjusting brightness, contrast, and color to craft the perfect icon. Additionally, you can rename apps with any title you desire, making organization and personalization simple and creative.

## Review summary

The app is praised for its core ability to customize app names and icons and for a simple, approachable interface. However, the user experience is dominated by ads—especially after each action and a push to upgrade—with several users reporting that paid ad removal doesn't work. Many reviews also indicate the app often fails to actually change names (often creating shortcuts or applying the wrong logo), making the functionality unreliable. Overall, the value lies in customization, but the app's ad-heavy, inconsistent behavior turns it into a frustrating experience.

### Pros

- Ability to change app names and icons.
- Simple, straightforward UI for those tasks.
- Offers customization/flexibility in appearance.

### Cons

- Excessive ads, including after every action; ad bombardment.
- Often does not actually change the app name (often creates shortcuts or applies the wrong logo).
- Ads removal paid by users sometimes does not work; premium ad removal may not load.
- Poor UX/UI due to ads and navigation issues; makes the app hard to use.
