I thought this was going to be free...
Great! Just wish the flashlight used the flash instead of the screen.
Kinda really pointless app but i gotta say i like the flip a coin feature.
I LOVE this app! It's great fun having my avatar flip a coin or hold a lighter for me!
Disappointed
Not happy :(. This was supposed to be free. $0.99 Doesn't make difference for me but the fact that I must pay for it shattered my expectations.
Why not a free 'game'?
Very fun..
Useful and fun haha, what more could you ask of a mobile app!
super fun
I love playing with my lill avatar.. I hope more avatar "games" come out :D
Good utility app, coin flip is very cool.

Great fun on the cheap. I love the bobblehead one
Fun, but mostly pointless
The main draw here is that you get to see that avatar that you spent all that time customizing, do more than just sit there in the Games Hub. There aren't that many "gadgets" contained in here, but I will admit that it's pretty fun seeing my guy flipping the coin and trying to balance himself with the level...
Fun little app though the level and ruler aren't very precise or useful.
Unique "toolbox" app
Nice useful set of tools in one app. I'll mostly use the Flashlight but the level is good too and other items like the bobblehead are mostly for fun. Sure it would have been nice if it was free but given the amount of extra work compared to other flashlight and other apps (3d avatar jumping around, etc), I think $1 is pretty reasonable especially if you are a Xbox user. Hope they add more gadgets over time thru updates!
Meh
Why is this an Xbox LIVE game? This should be in the Utilities section....
Love it!
The usual phone tools all together with a touch of Xbox avatar fun. Not the best, but cool enough for its price :-)
Has a UI bug: when the ruler is switched to metric (cm) and you go out and back in, it has inches selected but the scale is (correctly) in cm. Using the flash for battery would be nice.
Good gadget that you can play with you avatar...though it is not very helpful with games...
This is a *** gadget for ur avatar...it is not good for the price at all. It is neat but the ruler, flashlight, and lighter are just stupid. The only good ones are a level and a coin that you can flip. Other than those 2, this app would be worthless.
Why is this an Xbox LIVE game? This should be in the Utilities section.... And the flashlight sucks! USE THE LED FLASH NOT THE SCREEN!!!!!
Until the flash is used for the flashlight, I can't rate any higher... The lighter is my fav gadget :D
Lame that this isn't free! All this should be accessible from my avatar in the Games hub - and from all the prerelease PR, I thought it was. Like that I can use my friend's avatars, don't like how long switching to them takes. Like I get to select which avatar to use for the bobblehead! 8-) Overall decent, nice to have all these tools in one place; wish it was better integrated into the Games hub.
Really cool. I like shaking the bobble head of other people.
Not bad but would have expected it to be free.
Work fine. However not too many things to do with your avatar.
From all the pre-release demos, I was expecting all these features to be free with the Xbox Live application on the phone. It's fun to play with it anyways, performance could be better considering how little it actually does.
Trial is worthless
It's cool.
Who does all that coin flippin?
Humorous take on the "standard" phone apps
Says "Default Title" on icon when pinned to home.
Does too little for paid-app
Fun to get your own avatar doing the coin flipping and flash-light! Hope to see that integrated into the overall phone experience.
Weather channel
Cute and functional add-ons for your Avatar. Certainly not necessary or even that useful.
Trial is worthless. Can only use level. Yippee!
Trial is useless though it is really fun;!!!
Not necessary, fun and useful. Well worth it.
Fun and useless, my definition of a gadget so it fits the bill.
Lame.
Nice collection
Meh.
Why did I buy this? I dunno. 99 cents, that's why. Maybe should have bought a game for that, but whatever. This is okay. Probably better for younger kids, but why would younger kids own a smartphone? Parents of kids with Xbox Live, maybe? I don't see myself using this other than showing others who I hope won't ask if I paid for this. Why is a ruler on here? Wish the lighter would have animation of it lighting or react with the microphone or when you shake the phone. Overall, they could have done better and really should have been included free with a WP7 purchase.
Lame
Yawn
Why this app for 00.99$ useless
Trial doesn't let you try anything except the level, and that is pretty bad ... The bubble is still near the middle when the phone is tilted at a 45 degree angle.
Cute and at least you get a flashlight app out of it. Maybe they'll add more
Great app.
The update still has a UI bug: when the ruler is switched to metric (cm) and you go out and back in, it indicates inches but the scale is (correctly) in cm.
Lame...
Awesome app. Includes tools to play around with your avatar. Selection could have been a bit more though...
There is always an update available even right after you install the update. This is very annoying. Also the update is 3000000MB, which I don't think is right. Fail.
This is sh!t. Nothing is available in the trial mode and most of those functions are provided free from Microsoft, HTC, or other people from the marketplace.
Nice but nothing avaiable in trial mode. What trial mode is good for ?
Lame, does nothing at all
Fun little app - flashlight is actually useful - kids love it - well worth a buck
Meh...
Not worth it.
Can't do anything on trail version. This app should be free.
It does what it supposed to and does it well. Unfortunately unless some updates come out it simply doesn't do anything useful. If it had cost more than it did, I would be repairing my phone with super glue and duct tape.
Finally caved in and bought the app. The only tools I find useful are the flashlight and level, everything else is just for kicks. If you're cheap, it wont be hard to find the free versions of these tools. Perhaps MS could pull more customers if our purchasing these sort of apps also unlocked exclusive content for your avatar on Xbox Live...
The point of a trial is to entice you to buy the full version. I wish the trial had a trial, so I could know not to even download the trial. Not only can you not use any of the gadgets, but it doesn't even use your own avatar. I couldn't even see paying for the full version if I only have a handful of things I can do.
Useless app yet for 99 cents why not give your avatar a few new toys to play with.
Useless ripoff
Waste of a dollar. Useless app which should either (a) be free or (b) yanked off of marketplace.
Well you can find this all other places. This is for casual players who need new "toys" for their avatar.
Really weak
Neat little app. Like the level and flashlight.
So we're expected to pay money for something we can't even test? The trial lets you look at the avatar and icons for the available "tools" but you can't actually try any of them.
Fail
Garbage...simply garbage.
If the trial actually showed something, you might be able to find out if you liked it enough to but it. However it is impossible to discover anything about it, without being forced to buy. Personally it seems like a waste even at only a buck. Simply because you you have no idea what the hell it is or what it does.
Wow the trial doesnt even let you test it out
Wish the trial actually let me, you know, try it...
I would uninstall this even if it had been free.
Coinflip and level tool are awesome, rest is terrible, should be free!
This is the lamest thing I've seen on Xbox Live. It's not even worth the trial download.
Should be free
