    Much faster than alternatives by Jeshua

    I have tried other programs for modifying tiles in windows 10. Every program of this nature needs an app and a helper program. Every program has to launch and then close out. This one is the only one that does it quickly enough that it's barely perceptible. Transparency works, and once you learn the layout, it is fast to do new tiles whenever you need them. The developer is always keeping the app up to date with suggestions and input. 5/5 for sure.

    It used to be great but now broke after w10 anniversary by Nate

    This app used to work so good. I had tons of pins set up, but once Windows 10 anniversary update came out this app stopped working. My pins are still visually there but clicking them does nothing. I tried contacting the dev through their website but got no response. I think this app might be dead in the water. If it starts working again it's a great app.

    Only one I can find that works well enough by Unknown

    works well enough but would use something else if it was easier. dont like that each time i click on a created tile it opens this app for a split second then launches my program. sometimes the tiles don't work randomly

    Best way to adjust the Start menu by OccultMonk

    By far the most flexible way to adjust the Start menu. The app has options for transparent tile backgrounds! So you can even use semi opaque icons. The interface overall is clear and neatly designed. And to top it off, kind and great support of the author! The workflow is unfortunately hindered by the fact that the app had to be split in two parts for technical reasons. (Microsoft only allows changing the start menu with a store app, and a second app is needed for the starting process.) Some minor improvements needed to make it an even Better start menu tool.

    Great! by Jan Rey

    It works.. as far as i've tested it of course. I've only installed it for an hour and fiddled with a couple of tiles, but they seem to work quite well. The UI seems a bit ugly at the moment (both the app and the helper) but that doesn't really matter. There's a bit of problem when using this for games (and maybe some other .exe) so I advise making the program start a shortcut instead of directly the executable. You can do that by changing the action type in the Helper app. ^^ tl;dr This is a great program, use shortcuts instead linking directly to the exe.

    It's perfect with two exceptions by Sean

    Having to have the helper application open at all times is a real bummer, and being forced to use all tile sizes kinda stinks, other than that, it does the job great edit: I'd like to say that I'm also very pleased with the author's proactive nature in keeping the app up to date. Not very many people are willing to do that sort of thing so it's a huge plus

    Exactly what I've been waiting for! by Adam

    Holy flurry of updates! This app (with the requisite desktop helper app, where the updates have been coming) does exactly what I'd hope for - my start screen is quite handsomely customized and the app is growing continuously more user-friendly and featured. It is definitely worth the cost ... although since I clicked the 'try' button I don't see a way to make payment. Build in a payment button and I'll pay you back for this excellent program.
