500+ Cool Wallpapers app review: a waste of time
Introduction
500+ Cool Wallpapers & Optical Illusion Backgrounds HD for iPhone & iPod Touch is the sort of app that provides such a minimal level of reliable functionality that you really would be better off saving your time and money, and looking for a better app in the App Store.
The best iPad apps for customizing a home screen
I find reviewing apps to be pretty frustrating at times; all it would take is a marginal amount of extra effort on the part of some developers and their releases would be infinitely higher in quality, and more reliable in general.
Poorly Received
As you’ll see in the Pros & Cons section below, 500+ Cool Wallpapers & Optical Illusion Backgrounds HD for iPhone & iPod Touch seems to be a real swing-and-a-miss on the part of the developer, leaving many users rather dissatisfied to say the least.
The best iPhone apps for customizing a home screen
You’re supposed to be able to use this app to customize some of the visual elements of your iOS device, but instead I’ve found it to be more irritating than anything else due to how temperamental it is.
500+ Cool Wallpapers best avoided
Poorly Developed
Although I gave 500+ Cool Wallpapers & Optical Illusion Backgrounds HD for iPhone & iPod Touch a little more time and patience than some of the more disgruntled users on the iTunes description page, I still gave up on it after not very long.
The best iPad apps for wallpaper
There are countless utilities of this kind in the Productivity, Utilities, and Photo & Video categories of the App Store, so save your time and look at some of those instead.

Pros & Cons
Pros
-
While this app provides some basic image editing and/or enhancing functionality, the benefits really are so marginal that I would strongly advise looking elsewhere
Cons
-
To further reinforce my argument against this app, I would like to show you a couple of rather passionately negative remarks on the iTunes description page:“Never get this app it is not worth the time and money yu will put into it! It only has one theme and you have to pay for the rest l! Oh and it does not even tell you how much the next theme will be! Only one theme that is nature themed and had terrible dirty backgrounds that are dark and brown with no color at all! I deleted this app within 2 mins of looking through it! This app makes me mad and disappointed! Never get this app!”

Another user had this to say: “I want evrybody to listen up this is a bad app and it has horrible wallpapers they don't even move this is a waste of my time and money if you download this you will hate it a lot”
500+ Cool Wallpapers not what it seems
Final Words
I think I’ve said all I have to say about 500+ Cool Wallpapers & Optical Illusion Backgrounds HD for iPhone & iPod Touch, so be sure to treat your iPhone and iPad to an app which has had a little more TLC put into it!
