Pros and cons of FolderIcons app for iPhone and iPad

FolderIcons app good for

First pick your icon, then name it & tap copy. Go to the Folder, the icon is for & hold it till it wiggles. Tap the folder & delete name of the folder. Hold your finger over the folder name bar till "Select / Select All / Plate" pop up. Tap plate, your icon & name should fill the name bar. push your home button & your done. For SpringBoard it just means Home Screen.
Dont know why others are complaining ... Pretty intuitive and simple.

Some bad moments

I just bought this App. The final stage in getting started is to "Paste as new folder name in Springboard". Does anyone know how to do this?!
Doesnt change the appearance of the folder at all. Instead, it puts an icon in before the folder heading. You can accomplish the same by simply cutting and pasting your own photo there. You still have to do that with this app! The icon selection is not very relevant either. Fail.
I think you should put more icons, i bought it by mistake but its pretty dam good.. Useful!
These are more Emoji based icons than ones you would label on a folder, also far too many duplicates that are just a different shade of color. Though it is neat to add some icons to app labels it isnt that exciting with this current set of icons. Perhaps more system based icons. Chat bubbles, more phone icons, more game icons, mail icons, etc. When previewing a folder, it truncates to "..." one character too soon.
That other review is right....we have the same things for free,but I figured out how to do it after I bought this....oh well
My phone isnt jail broken so I cant even use this.. Misleading.
