WinStart: Animated Windows Mobile 6.x Start Menu Replacement

2010-11-04
whats up guys its CJ lips true from Pacquiao com so when you open the default Start menu on windows mobile so it just pops up there's no opening animation it just doesn't have that subtle way of easing you into the menu well that's where xda-developers steps in with a new start menu replacement it's called win start and it adds beautiful flying animations to the start menu icons it's actually similar to the effect you get with some launchers on android and on iOS let's see how it would look on Windows Mobile ok so I applied the new menu let's go ahead and press the start button and see what happens alright so the icons come flying in now let's jump into a folder and jump out and check out another one just to see how it's working overall so so far so good it's actually working fairly well here especially on this aging touch pro2 I kind of expected it to be a little bit less fluid but it is running smoothly now keep in mind this is a beta so there may be some bugs or glitches but rest assured that it's being actively developed so if there are any issues they'll probably be fixed now if we go into a folder there are some other options we can access so tap on an icon or not well tap and hold on an icon and then you can hide this icon and move the icon rename it and change the image so we'll go ahead and hide it and you can see it just disappeared so a sort of a convenience feature to remove some of the clutter in the start menu we can move the icon okay so you just reorder it and then it will apply it to the grid let's go into the menu and go to options alright so here we can actually change the amount of icons per row in the start menu so right now I have it set to four I can change that to 35 or however many i want there's probably a limit but i'm not going to make it too big or too small you can also change the I concise if you wanted to customize a bit so pretty nice let's jump out so again this start menu replacement is called win start i'll post a link in the description with more information remember it's currently in beta so there may still be some bugs but it's definitely one to keep an eye on if you're still rolling with an older Windows Phone and want to spice up your Start menu a bit if you liked the video please give it a thumbs up and as always thanks for watching
