About this app
Do you crave bigger icons on your home screen? Are your icons too small to see or touch? Giganticon allows you to personalize your home screen with big huge gigantic giant icons for any app you like.
Just add the Giganticon widget to your home screen and choose your app. You can resize the icon to be tiny, gigantic, or anything in between. Icons for apps available on Google Play will even be in HD!
Giganticon is optimized for phones and tablets running any version of Android.
You can have up to two icons totally free, and then the app will ask you to upgrade. However, there is a secret way to unlock a third free icon. See if you can find it!
For apps that aren't on the play store, Giganticon allows you to substitute any image from your device.
Giganticon is great for kids to make the homescreen simpler, and great at increasing accessibility for people who have poor vision or trouble touching small icons. Kids and grand parents will rejoice! Giganticon supports TalkBack for those who have it enabled.

THERE IS NOTHING ELSE LIKE THIS, which is shocking. It does one thing and it does it beautifully — lets you have medium, big and (obviously) gigantic icons on your home screen, so it doesn't look like a boring wall of pics like some low-down iPhone user. I have Android 10, Samsung XCover Pro, and I use Nova Launcher (if that helps anyone) — and this works a treat. Developer is friendly and responsive, too. It's not obvious (to dunderheads like me) how to choose an different icon if you don't like the default for an app, and he kindly showed me how. And now I've written more than 100 words, which Google tells me makes this review more helpful. You're welcome.

It was good at first but now if my phone were to restart the pictures I had chosen as the apps display all glitch and change into the same picture. I would have to go again and change them from the widget. Every. Single. Time. I'm definitely sure that this is a bug and since I payed for the app I would like it fixed as soon as possible.

I would give this app 5 stars... however, some apps get applied with a square white background (chrome, play music, gmail, etc.) instead of the icons themselves with transparent backgrounds like pictured. I was able to get around this by installing icon packs, but still more effort than I would have liked.

What's new
This Release:
1. Fix a bug where Giganticon wouldn't recognize when users had already purchased it.
Previous Release:
1. Add support for pulling the local icon from apps that use Adaptive Icons. This was preventing Giganticon from falling back to local icons.
2. Fix parsing of the Play Store HTML. This was preventing Giganticon from acquiring high res icons.
3. Switch to new in-app billing library.
4. Set target SDK appropriately.
5. Properly request storage permission to store large icons.
