Contact Widgetsmith Support

This would have been a five star review, but minus one star for the clock’s hand that don’t move, on the medium clock with calendar widget, after the 2.7 update. Then, minus one more star for receiving an auto response from support when I sent them an email about it. I realize that it can be a daunting task to personally respond to every single person that sends an email to a developer, but how is one to know that they even looked at the bug report. It wouldn’t appear so, as they have come out with a patch since, and the issue remains. What good is a clock that doesn't keep time, well….it’s right twice a day. So, wondering if they at least read their reviews, and will look into fixing the widget that has had it’s home as the only thing on the first page of my Home Screen for a year, and I have had to move it to the last page until it works again. It’s the top of a Smart Stack so don’t want to get rid of it altogether, and don’t care for any or the others in it’s place.

I just got this app when I updated my phone to ios14 and I love to use this app to make my phone more unique! However, after a day or two of having set widgets on my homescreen, the widgets start to glitch. For example the "date" widget wont change the date for the next day and same with the "temperature" widget. Also, around the same time the other widgets start acting up, the widget that I use to showcase a picture/album gets blurry and also will not change. When I attempt to solve this issue the whole widget will glitch all together and will either show a grey or black screen and I have learned one of the only ways to solve this issue is by deleting all of my widgets + the app and redownloading to start fresh. Also this is a solution, it is very frustrating and annoying to have to completely restart my whole homescreen. I absolutely love this app and I feel that with a few updates and bug fixes, it will be even better than what it is now.

Overall, the app is good. I think it does its job well enough, but it’s very simple. I like the customizable nature of the app, my home screen looks a lot better since downloading it.
The only technical issue I have encountered is that my large widget for my reminders seems to glitch at random points and not list any of my scheduled items. This is not a constant issue, but it does happen every once in a while, as well as taking a while to update once I add a new reminder.
The only other complaints I have are a matter of further improving aesthetic and perhaps some future ideas, none of which are deal-breakers for me, but would improve my experience with the app. I don’t particularly like the battery widget as it shows only the battery and not the percentage, which seems almost useless to me, as I have the same symbol showing in the upper right corner of my screen at all times. I also wish that the widgets did not say widgetsmith underneath them (similar to how the name of an app shows under its icon), I would prefer they have no title/caption. My third wish is that the widgets could have customizable shortcuts, so that when I select them, I am taken to the app that corresponds to the widget, rather than simply opening the widgetsmith app.
Nonetheless, I recommend this app. It makes me happy to see my home screen much more organized and customized to my aesthetic. I much preferred this app to others similar to it.
