Pros and cons of aHomeIcon app for iPhone and iPad

aHomeIcon app good for

This app works perfect and in return I am going to give it a 5 star rating! It works just as great as it says in the description!
This is an awesome app for those who love customizing there iOS device! But only one problem...cant play vids from camera roll...oh well....STILL AWESOME!
It is such a fantastic app....I hope you can fix the problem with bluetooth and WIFI shortcuts...
I loved this application but i am getting impatient day by day. This app really makes all thing easy, just one touch. Please fix it immediately ;)
A real app that create a shortcut for every thing on your springboard, the best app ever made!fully customizable, excellent! Five stars but italian translation will be the best for this app! And a url prepared list to choose will be fantastic!hang on!
Ive tried different icon shortcut apps but werent as good. I use this app to save & view individual music and photo files. I also have apps that allow you to share stuff via link but require the app to view. aHomeIcon will let you link the URL that will send to safari. You then tap open and that apps file opens no problem. I al saved websites to my home screen with this app. The 1 suggestion I have is a way to share notes from iPhone now that you can share those w/new iOS. That or include a text editor to write a note and save. Otherwise I have no complaints.

Some bad moments

Doesnt work on my device as before.... And no more white square verge?... Blank screen when i make a call
Why dont you Sayn it wont work in iOS 6 - this is fraud. I want my Money back!
I can only give this 2 stars because there is no way to reposition, crop, or zoom in or out of a picture that you use for the icon. Disappointed. Would also like to see more and better built generic icons. There are only a few and they are not attractive. Much more creativity needs to go into this. Ive deleted it and bought an alternative ap which has the above mentioned capabilities.
Creating a URL shortcut in your home screen with a custom icon from you photo library is easy but for some unknown reason it creates a profile in settings that requires your unlock code. Deleting the profile deletes your new custom shortcut.
Does what it says it does. Looking forward to updates. Bluetooth settings etc.
Easy to use, works every time, as long as you follow the directions, which can be a little tricky, but not troublesome enough to warrant removing a star. GET IT!
