Sometimes it's worth using Android just to have fun customising a home screen. (Or is it just me!).
I love changing it up.

Just some I've been rocking recently.

Found a really nice music widget which finally looks good on my home screen.
All of the stock widgets from the big music apps all look garbage IMO, and annoying they don't allow for much customisation.

Swapped my Google widget too (slight change) and can see me rocking this for a while.
Looks great on KEYone!

Ah cool! It's a great listen.
And it's called Ubiquity Music.
It let's you customise a fair bit. So you can choose to leave out the artist name, album name and track name, or have it all showing or just have certain bits visible.

You can choose to have it clear, translucent (what I'm rocking), white, black etc. And you can set what music app it opens when you touch it.

For a free app it's great. :)

Was thinking of going back to iOS, then Cosmin (@Coccco28) releases another cool theme (White Moon) w/Kustom live wallpaper widgets. Basically, this is how I like to setup my JB iPhone, but without having to wait for a JB.

Would you mind sharing this wallpaper?

I actually got it from an app called 'minimalist wallpapers'.

Download it from Play Store it is on there along with a whole load of others which are great!

Sorry I don't have a link but as it was from an app it's tricky. There isn't too many on the app so shouldn't be too difficult to find.

Enjoy :)

My "new" S6 Edge I gave my Pixel to my kid planning on using my old Nexus 6 but it took a spill today so it's not serviceable anymore. Anyway S6 Edge w/TWRP running Nemesis all of that was far harder than it should have been and it still didn't clean out all the Sammy apps

Been using the same kind of set up on my KEYone for a while, just swapping out the backgrounds to change it up.

Currently had this on a while and liking it a lot.

Any the below is my XZ Premium. This is a free theme from the xperia store.
Really like it.
