Windows Phone App Review: iClone

iClone for Windows Phone

The iClone app for your Windows Phone is an interesting novelty app. iClone pulls upward a fake iPhone interface on your Windows Phone that doesn't await bad and has a niggling functionality to help sell things.

When you get-go launch iClone you'll be presented with the iPhone lock screen and from in that location y'all get the traditional iPhone layout with xiii icons that include:

Messages (launches a new text message)
Photos (in-house album)
Reckoner
Photographic camera (launches your Windows Telephone camera only pics are stored in-house)
Maps (Bing)
Calendar (takes you lot to your Windows Alive calendar)
App Shop (launches Marketplace app)
Clock
Screen Lock (pulls up the lock screen)
Notes
iTunes (pulls up Zune)
Siri (plays a few humorous quotes)
Settings (pulls up iClone settings and a few Windows Telephone settings)

Swiping to the left pulls upward the search screen and swiping to the correct pulls upwards half-dozen more icons for a BMI (body mass index) app, a weight tracking app, a vibration app, a chess game, a rather nasty cowboy dueling app and link to the developer'south Facebook page.

iClone Screens

Forth the bottom of the screen you accept tiles to launch an iPhone designed dialer, your email, web browser and fake iPod player. iClone ran smoothly just the iPod histrion was a fiddling shaky at times. Songs would mysteriously start playing again at random after you striking the pause push.

It'southward really a nice app simply nosotros couldn't aid but ask why would you want to fool your friends into thinking you had iOS running on your Windows Telephone. Particularly when y'all take such a smashing OS to begin with.

Not wanting to read too much into things nosotros took iClone for what it is, a well presented novelty app for your Windows Phone. I wonder how many "Is that the new iPhone?" blazon questions you'd get running iClone the next time you visit your local AT&T store?

iClone is running $.99 and you can catch it here at the Windows Phone Marketplace.
