Ratings and reviews

Like the app a lot. One of the most customizable widgets I have found. The text though doesn't seem to change with wallpaper or light/dark mode. I have gone through all the settings multiple times to make sure I haven't missed anything. Light text on a light wallpaper, you just can't read it. Also, the app frequently reverts back to the free version, which is annoying. That may be a play store thing, but it doesn't happen to any of the other apps I have installed.

Every time I attempted to adjust a setting, an ad would popup and interrupt. You then back out to see the effect of your change. If you're using one of the sliding bars to adjust then it gets to be a pain, because you get stopped by ads 1 sec after you start to drag. Statistics: 12 ads in under a minute. I couldn't tolerate the ads long enough to see if the app had the features I was looking for before purchasing.

I advise paying for the full version up front. Trying to use the hobbled trial version will frustrate you. The full version is terrific. It allows extensive customization. And – crucially – it allows you to save & restore your configuration. I was able to set up the widget to my satisfaction, and I'm really picky. Another good point is that the developer responds to questions.
