While iOS 8 is Apple’s forthcoming operating system which will be available sometime later this fall, you can easily download a taste of it now. Here’s the catch: you have to be an Android user. Yes, that’s correct – if you want your phone to look like it’s running Apple’s iOS 8, you have to have an Android phone. (Android users, don’t deny it – sometimes you really like that iOS look). If you’re one of those people, even if you don’t like to admit it, I have an easy way to help you. All you have to do is download the iOS 8 Launcher HD Retina Theme from the Google Play Store. Best of all, it’s free!

This is a pretty simple way to get the best of both worlds – you still have all of your Android functionality with the new iOS look. Who says you can’t have your cake and eat it too? The launcher even acts like iOS – for instance, when you hold down on one of the icons, it will jiggle around, just like on an iPhone. It also transforms all of your icons and folders into iOS-like buttons.

Pretty impressive, huh? As I said earlier, all this app does is give your phone a visual change – it does nothing to how your Android works on the inside.
