Ratings and reviews

New android 14 and app is still on top of it, I would ask for more flexibility in what tapping widget does not just one and done.i learned to leave widget tap setting alone, I'm guessing that keeping the tap setting locked once it's changed from app configure to anything else makes it so that when phone updates or restarts the widget remembers it's config, fair enough, leave it that way.

After the latest "update" on 4/3/25 (5.0.3), when I open the app by touching on the notification, the app screen is OFTEN COMPLETELY EMPTY and shows NOTHING BUT THE APP TITLE AND BLANK SPACE! PLS FIX!! I believe this happens whenever the app has been unopened for a while. I'm using Samsung S24 with the latest update firmware.

Very good! Would like option to color a square contour and not just the inner circle. Also would be useful to open the widget settings upon long press, after setting click to show battery info. Failed to show the widget on the lock screen with LockStar
