Ratings and reviews

Decent overall especially for a free, ad-free app. When I change the font type it doesn't change it in the widget even though the preview in the app shows the new font, but everything else works as expected. Some nice (potentially premium) features I would recommend to the dev: -Filter options to block and/or only show specific authors or topics -Ability for users to add custom quotes -Options for users to create custom lists of quotes

This quotes widget allows you to add and use your own quotes, system quotes, or mix them..👍🏼. I would like the option to delete system quotes that I don't desire but the positive features outweighs that. Another nice feature,..quotes can be customized to change at certain intervals. However, intervals of 30 mins and 1 hour should be added. Another missing feature for me is the ability to set background pic from my gallery. Overall, nice widget that I would recommend.

Edit: upgrading my rating from 4 to 5 stars since they have added all below features: reduced ads and an outline (which works as well as a shadow would). --- Original review: Works as advertised, though it does have ads. Would appreciate it if there was an option to add a text shadow to make the text readable without having a large background - just a matter of personal taste.
