User Reviews for Brass - Custom Icons & Widgets

A trick in disguise? You decide.

This showed up in an ad for me, at first I thought “Wow, this is going to improve my screen.” But . . . I was wrong. You see, this app can screw up your apps when you use the new ones instead of the real ones, this can happen by not having the real apps on your phone and instead having the ones you wanted. This happed because some of my apps would not process the icons. So I had to restart, and apparently. All my apps where gone. Thank God I was able to get them back or else I would not be able to write this review. This app also intended to “Track” you, which can raise a red flag to people of privacy and safety. I was tricked into getting this app, and now I know that stuff like this intends to look like it wants to help but really it wants to screw up your screen. If you read all of this, now you are probably blaming me for getting this. Well, yea I looked at the reviews and stuff but then again bots are a thing now, so ya. I kinda blame myself for getting this, but most of all. This intends to “Track”, and screw up your phones apps. Well to me this seems true.

Good but....

Ok so this app is nice I really like how you can choose which apps you want to be on your Home Screen. This app is also nice because it has way more apps that people need that aren’t on any of the other places. The only really annoying thing is you have to watch an add for each app you want to unlock if you don’t want to subscribe or pay money. I personally think that 1 add should unlock at least up to 3 apps instead of having to watch one for each and every app. The other thing that is annoying is that no where in the app does it say if you delete the profiles from settings you will then proceed to delete all of your icons you just set up. I literally just did that and I was honestly really annoyed by that. So a friendly recommendation I have is to have 1 add unlock up to 3 apps and to specify in big bold letters at the beginning of the process that deleting the profiles will delete the icons. Other than that I really like the app with a lot of really cool themes and I will definitely continue to use this app in the future.

YOU GUYS ARE WRONG, THIS IS A GOOD APO

So this is for everyone who thinks that it only goes in your camera roll! Or it won’t work. Most of them are supposed to be downloaded through the settings. The rest are in the camera roll which you have to add in Shortcuts and nothing else. Those are because they weren’t added to the ones that need downloading. So stop hating on this app! It’s great and it works! Just make sure that all of them have to be downloaded and you don’t have to watch the ads to unlock them to use them. Oh yeah, about the ads. If it shows you the screen where you can pay there is a fine print button where you can go on without paying with ads. You can still you the app but tap on the ones you want to use and press continue, you will have to watch ads to unlock every single one you picked. It was annoying for me because I have a 9 year old daughter who installed this with my permission and had to watch ads for every single one. Still great and works, just too many ads of you don’t pay.

Good result if you pay/put in the effort.

So first of all, it costs $25/year to use this app. Then, a good outcome requires more work than I initially expected. You have to change your wallpaper and most icons yourself, Brass just gives you the raw material and instructions. Also, I’m not sure if I’m doing something wrong, but my screen doesn’t show the red notification badges on my new icons. This may actually be a plus for me, we’ll see. All in all I’m very happy, but I can see how it wouldn’t be for everyone. If you decide to do this, here’s my advice: plan the layout of your screen before you try to install, make a list of all your apps, then systematically switch over. Also lots of apps are not in their library of icons, but you can get around that by screenshoting an icon that you like, cropping the image to just the icon, then following their instructions to utilize shortcuts.

Phone functionality suffers with this app

The way this app achieves an impressive aesthetic is crafty for sure. Instead of actually changing the app icons (something that I assume is impossible in the Apple ecosystem), this app creates shortcuts and bookmarks that link to the actual apps. The idea is that you assign the styluses icons to the bookmarks and shortcuts, then remove the actual apps from your Home Screen. This gives you the visuals you are after, but using your phone this way can be maddening. If you are used to clicking the back button to return to your previous app, you can’t anymore - it will just take you back to the bookmark/shortcut and then bounce back to the app you are already using. Want to grab a quick photo? Be prepared to wait an extra few seconds for the camera shortcut to bounce to the app, then for Siri to remind you that this is a shortcut. Want to reveal all of your open apps? You screen will be polluted with empty black windows… every app you open has a corresponding bookmark/shortcut open with it. I give the creators credit for figuring out how to achieve this kind of visuals in a locked down iOS environment, but unless you really value style over functionality, this is just too wonky to endorse. And if you do decide to go ahead with it, be prepared to spend hours setting up your shortcuts and bookmarks - nothing is automatic here.

Have to pay in the end.

I hate writing reviews, but I felt like I had to for this one. Okay so here goes, the app is amazing they have so many different options to choose from and it’s easy to get the icons on your phone. And it’s free and you only have to watch some short ads to get the icons. I’m sure you’re wondering then why only two stars. Well because it only lets you do that five time until you have to pay for the app. NOT COOL. If you’re advertising that it’s for free and all you have to do is watch some ads to get the icons then that’s what it should be. Not here’s a teaser of some cute icons and then boom now you have to pay. The icons where you have to manually add to your phone using shortcuts still work, it’s the ones that are easy install. So if you’re going to do that then make it so I can just use the shortcuts on my phone. I understand people need to make money, but to make it $10 a month is a little crazy. If it was $10 one time purchase I would have just paid it and moved on with my life. If they would fix those little issues I would have given them 5 stars hands down.

AMAZING APP!!! RECOMMEND IT 100%!!!

I wanna say, out of all the apps I’ve tried, this one is the best. It has amazing themes and designs and it doesn’t even require a subscription to access some of the better looking themes. In other apps I’ve tried, they have all the good themes behind a subscription fee which is absolutely ridiculous for some icons. There is one thing to note, you do have to watch a 15 second AD to unlock each icon and I had 60 icons so if you time it, it’ll take you approximately 15 minutes to download them all. Which isn’t bad for a free app, I was just watching Netflix on my laptop while downloading the icons (multitasking). Once you do download all the icons, click continue and download them, then click the ok and confirm buttons. After that, you just go to settings and click on profiles and install it from there and all of the icons will be on you’re Home Screen at once. The widgets will also be downloaded. However, you’ll have to go back to the theme in the app again to download the wallpaper but that takes a few seconds. Overall, I highly recommend this theme app above all others, if you have a problem with this (FREE) app then you’re nuts, but that’s my opinion. Hope you guys enjoy!

It’s ok but I’d make a few changes.

Ok. First of all, this app is super cool, and there are so many different themes to choose from. One of my problems is that when you pick a theme, like for example yesterday I tried to pick a fall theme with pumpkins as the wallpaper. When I clicked on it and tapped setup theme, it told me to select which apps I had that I wanted to change, and not all of the apps that I have were there. I don’t see why there are only 20 apps for you to choose from, when everyone has more apps than that. It doesn’t even have a choice for this app! Brass! And then, when I clicked next, it made me watch a 30 second ad for every single app that I wanted to change. And, it only changes what the apps look like but it is a completely different app. You still have to keep the regular looking app. It only changes the icons but it doesn’t change my wallpaper or anything. No widgets, no wallpapers, I have to keep my regular apps, and I have to watch ads for every single app.

Glitchy and no badge notifications

It won’t even let me watch videos to unlock apps, just keeps saying “an error occurred…” (after reading some other reviews, I’m assuming this is because they only allow you a couple of free icons, regardless of the claim to be “free with ads”) Aside from that, they don’t even offer icons for all apps, only select apps. So for the functionality of my phone, I want, for example, Life360 on the first page of my Home Screen. I use it many times per day, but there is no option to change this icon, so I either have to bury it in a folder on another page (no) or few with the bright purple icon (defeats the whole purpose of the app) and that is the case for almost every app I have. Beyond that, since these are shortcuts, there are no badge notifications. So you won’t see the little alert on your messages or mail or anywhere else, informing you that something is going on there. Also takes away from the functionality of my phone.Great in theory, needs work to make it more practical. I would happily pay $ for this same idea with the badge notifications feature and the option for an icon for every single app I would ever want to download.

Just Awful

It kept either closing or glitching when i would try to watch a video to unlock something. When it crashed nothing was saved and i got as far as trying to instal it but the system wasn’t working. I just spent an hour adding the correct apps to the correct skins then took forever to unlock for free because im not interested in paying monthly. Why is nothing just pay for it and be done now? Once the app crashes all my progress was gone. Really glad i didn’t sign up or pay for anything because in the end the set up wasn’t working and was not easy. I kept downloading the profile thing but it wasn’t coming up in my settings like it was meant to. Find a different app that lets you just pay outright instead of giving you anything from 15-60 second adds per skin just to unlock everything. They only give you maybe 5 free skins on some of these and after adds yes its free but if you want fast and easy that works well, this is not it. I don’t think I have ever gone out of my way to leave a bad review online, im not sure if this was just the last straw for me this week or if im right to warn people the app may not work even if you put time or money into it but be warned.
