Description
I’ve been using Retro Mode – Icon Pack (Light) for a couple months now. It’s basically a pixel art icon pack that lets you give your phone a super nostalgic 90s vibe. Pretty solid app if you’re into customizing your home screen and making it look unique.
Here’s what you can do – there’s over 4,000 retro-style icons to choose from, and they get updated monthly with new ones. You can also use the 15 included wallpapers and 6 different widgets like a digital clock, analog clock, and calendar. Took me a while to figure out all the widget options but they’re pretty useful.
Look, if you’re into that old-school pixel art aesthetic, you’ll probably love this. It’s not perfect – the ads can get a bit annoying if you don’t pay – but overall it does the job of giving your phone a really cool retro look. Worth checking out for sure.
Editor Opinion
So here's my honest take on Retro Mode - Icon Pack (Light). I've tested a bunch of icon packs and customization apps, and this one's honestly one of the better ones I've used. The pixel art is super clean and well-designed, and there's just a ton of variety with over 4,000 icons. Not gonna lie, it took some time to get everything set up how I wanted, but once it's all dialed in, it looks great. Only real downside is the ads can be a bit intrusive, but you can remove them by paying. Overall, if you're into that retro aesthetic, this is a pretty solid choice.

I would give this 10 stars. It just works. It looks sooo cool and the developer is super quick to respond. I definitely recommend this icon pack over any others...
I know every review is about how wonderful the icons look, but it's true. This pack looks amazing, and there's a lot of icons covered. My only issue is that...
My favorite set of pixel icons I've seen so far. Works great with my wallpaper, easy on the eyes while still being unique and aesthetically pleasing. Requests for new icons...
