User Reviews

The app is visually appealing with glowing icons and good wallpapers and is easy to use, but reliability is a major issue. Many users report it doesn’t work as advertised, crashes when using photos, and charges or misleading update prompts. There are also compatibility problems (notably with iPhone 5) and concerns about download delays and upfront payments. Overall, strong visuals but significant reliability and trust concerns.

Pros

Glowing, vibrant icons and attractive wallpapers.
Simple, fast, and easy-to-use interface.
Strong visual customization appeal with glow effects and wallpaper options.

Cons

Does not work as advertised; some reviews describe it as a scam and report being charged.
Crashes and bugs, especially when accessing the photos/gallery.
Inconsistent device compatibility (claims to support iPhone 5 but some users report it doesn't).
Long download times and upfront payments/charges before use.
Disruptive update popups that feel malware-like.

Recent reviews

Every time I try to download something from my App Store this app pops up, (even though I have deleted it..) saying the developer has to update the App! It is extremely frustrating and seems like a virus.
