Okay so I just got this and I just made my first widget! The creation of widgets can take a bit to learn but I was able to figure it out after about 1/2 an hour of trying to make a widget. It doesn’t come with a tutorial when making widgets but you can get picture pretty easily if you try hard enough.YOU GUYS CAN DO SO MUCH CUSTOMIZING WITH THIS APP WHEN IT COMES TO WIDGETS!!!While I absolutely love what you can do with this I do have to point to others that while you can make your own customized widgets- depending on what that widget is designed for the lag can be a big problem when it try’s to update.For example the widget I made was one that listed all of the events that came from my device’s calendar. While it did list them, accurately at that, the problem was when I was adding new events into my calendar. It took an hour for the widget to actually update to show that there were new events added. When looking on Reddit, this was apparently a reoccurring problem that many people had to deal with. And it wasn’t just for the calendar either. People were also complaining about the weather as well as when time was involved in the widgets.

I just bought a premium version of this app and it’s a little expensive for what’s on offer so far at a pretty heft $6 price point but this widget app has by far the most options of any I’ve ever tried and I’m happy to support its creators for how ambitious they were. My only gripes as of now for only having the app one night is that for some reason it seems to destroy the quality of my images when I use the photo widget option. It will look very high quality in the preview however when I add it to my home page it’s suddenly pixelated and ugly. I know it doesn’t have to do with the dimensions because the preview is flawless so I’m not sure what’s going on there but that could use some optimizing.Additionally there is an advertised option to add animated gifs to your Home Screen but I have yet to successfully do it. Either that part of the app doesn’t function as intended or it’s too complicated to figure out without a little guidance—and I did check the FAQ beforehand to no avail.In the future I’d love to see some widget renaming options. Developers may not be able to hide app names but if we had some kind of edit option, I use the empty character “ “ to hide the names of apps via the shortcut app. It would be great if I could do this with my widgetopia photos as well.Keep up the great work!

I purchased this app today and it was very difficult to set up. I’m pretty tech savvy, though no expert, but it took going back and forth between the setup and my home screen many times to get the widget in place. I like that I could design what went on it, but the main reason I got it was to have a good clock with day and date. The instructions told only how to put a widget on the page, and it repeatedly put the wrong one up. By trial and error, I got the correct widget in the place I wanted it, only to discover that the clock updates at its own rate! Seriously, a clock needs to be accurate always. Despite the fact this is a paid app, there are frequent opportunities to upgrade to a ”pro” version. Am I to believe you don’t think a monthly subscriber needs only an approximate time on the clock???? I spent so much time struggling with this app, I will have to go back at it tomorrow. Most likely, I will drop it and find a clock that actually tells time.

This is an awesome app. Like, I would not prefer any other widget app at all. But I have a few suggestions. First, would it be possible to add on a widget making tutorial? Like, I really want to make a widget but I don’t understand half of what I’m supposed to do when I go to make the widget. Another thing, would it be possible to add live gif widgets? I mean, it might cash some people’s phones, but I still think it would be a fun thing to add. One problem I found was that whenever I go to click on the little icons in the widget that is supposed to take me to the app it is representing, it just sends me to the widgetopia app instead. Otherwise, this is a really awesome app that I would share with all of my friends (if they had iPhones).
