You can change home screens, keyboards, icons, wallpapers, the list is nearly endless.  When it comes to customization, android simply can\u2019t be beat.<br \/>\nLet\u2019s face it, when it comes to customization most just want to be able to turn their home screen into one that fits their personality.    With an android phone this is simple and can be done in a multitude of ways.  First, install a new launcher.  The launcher is essentially an apt that will take care of launching apps on your home screen.  Each launcher will have a unique layout and functionality depending on what you\u2019re wanting.  Try and few and pick the one that\u2019s your favorite.<br \/>\nNext we move along to icon.  Yep, you can even change the icons.  Some of your favorite apps have so-so icons that you don\u2019t love, or maybe the mismatch clutter just drives you nuts.  With an icon pack you can select one that will change all of your app pictures into a unified theme.  There is a wide variety to select from so you\u2019re guaranteed to find the one that you think suites you and your phone perfectly.<br \/>\nIf you\u2019re really courageous you can toss your old wallpaper in the trash bin and opt for a live wallpaper instead.  It\u2019s not uncommon to change a wallpaper regularly because a static image becomes boring over time.  With a live wallpaper you\u2019ll have a look that is unique and interesting.  Of course these can be changed regularly too but it\u2019s certainly much less boring than a flat image.  As a bonus the live wallpapers hardly use any battery power so you won\u2019t have to worry about draining your phone.<br \/>\nOne of the best aspects of the android phone is the ability to alter the lock screen.  You can change the settings so that you can use some of the options on your phone without having to constantly unlock.  A lock screen widget will allow you to decide what is displayed on the lock screen.  Certainly some of your phone needs to remain behind the lock but some functions don\u2019t require it and not having to unlock all the time can make life a whole lot more convenient.<br \/>\nIn addition to the other alterations you can also prolong your battery life by disabling vibrations, and background battery hogging apps so that you have plenty of battery life when you need it. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When you\u2019re looking for a phone with the ability to be customized, you just can\u2019t beat an android phone.
