The app which works with Windows Phone 8.1 lets you create custom tile layouts with either your personal design or available ones from the #TileArt app gallery within the app. Users make use of transparent PNG files and it is easy to share one’s creation with friends.

‘Live Tiles’ is a unique feature to Lumia devices; each tile represents an app and it updates automatically. It is located on the homescreen; can be easily repositioned or restyled to preferred choice.

Commenting on the launch, Ricc Webb, Mischief Maker, Microsoft Mobile;

“This is the only phone in the world with this level of customization, enabling you to fully integrate your own designs with the functions of the phone. The #TileArt app was created to bring amazing themes and customization tools to all Lumia owners. We’re looking for bold, intelligent and exciting designs that completely transform what Lumia phones could look like. Anything goes, stylistically – from paint, pencil and comic book art through to tattoo designs and cardboard cut outs.”
