How do you customise your phone/tablet?

Hey guys,

 

I was just changing my mobile wallpaper into something with more Spring feeling today to replace my usual cat wallpaper. grin I googled 'spring iphone wallpaper' and there's loads of nice and colourful spring scenery to choose from... look at these pretty colours!

 

Spring googled

 

I wonder if you all customise your phones and tablets and if you care a lot about things like having your own wallpaper image in the background, a specific ringtone for phone calls and text messages (or even for different people who call you) and other notifications? Do you organise the icons and folders in a specific way?

 

Or do you not care a lot about these and just tend to use the default customisation that comes with the phone when you get it? slight_smile I'd love to hear about it!

Usually just stock themes but I do set a nice Christmas picture at that time of year.

@Marjo love all those images you posted particulary the red tulips ... Spring is my favourite season

@jonsie just simply beautiful 

atm I don't have my Lumia 650lte customised, I don't really know how, guess I've just not looked into it, previous Lumia 640lte had the rose pic I took as on my avatar pic ... maybe a wedding pic (it's tomorrow) of my son Alex & his bride Emma with confetti in the air ... hey, get me, I'm no little young Lord @viridis III *tsk tsk* slight_smile

On my Windows phones i have a cobolt​ theme with picture of my girls as the unlock screen.

On my pc and OnePlus 3T I've got the girls as both wallpaper and unlock screen.

As for ringtones, I'm boring and have a basic ring, like the one snake has on his mobile in metal gear solid.

My text on the other hand is the minions shouting, whoohoo text message. This was my daughter idea of a joke, but I've grown to like it 😉

I like animated wallpapers for my phone. My tablet has a nice scene beside some water.

I don't have different ringtones for different people as my friends and I tend to email or text via What's App Messenger rather than phone. But I do have different ringtones for emails, texts etc. I maintain one ringtone for all calls - those few that I get.

I have a Sakura garden on my phone at the moment. Beautiful shade of pink and the flowers move gently in the breeze. I have a thunderstorm - complete with the sound of thunder, a fireworks display and seasonal themes for Halloween, Christmas and New Year.l

Yes I know I'm clearly a**l retentive.....😂

I think people would swear my phone had been stolen if it appeared without some big cat theme. Usually a cheetah....or snow leopard. Currently sporting a picture of a cheetah cub...
