This is the most intrusive tracfone app. I can't stand it, I don't think anybody likes it... It's one step from being a virus. It's annoying and a waste of space and your data plan plan... Serves no purpose. On a tracfone it can't even be uninstalled you're only hope is to click on settings , apps , disable, and enjoy never seeing it again.

Once upon a time you could add shortcuts to contacts and ALL your different apps. You could download additional themes too. And it also included some of the social media and internet plug-ins that this shell of a version has. Celltick made a great app that was a feature rich alternative to a normal lock screen to whatever Start Magazine has stripped it down to. Unfortunately I had to stop using the original version as it just started to give me issues. Loss of functionality isn't better.

Looks good but the inability to add the apps I want on the home screen really destroys its usefulness. I've looked through all of the menus, tried drag and drop, and anything else I could think of. And looked at the help which says no go in v5, it seems like the developer has created a promising app then decided not to give it legs or arms. But I do concede that it looks good hence 2 stars even if the reality is different.
