April 4th, 2011

Caller Id Skinz is a new Android app that allows you to add a completely custom skin to your incoming call screen. If you are feeling really into customizing your call screen…Caller Id Skinz also allows you to create your own custom skin/theme for your incoming call screen.

Options:

One click answer and reject modes: Answer calls with speaker phone, reject calls with a text message, hang up on caller without sending to voicemail.
Search for information on your phone without leaving your call screen. Open contacts, search call log, open other installed apps all from your call screen.
