    Great app. I use it on my home screen to display date and time, in a unique format. Although this app is no longer being supported, it is still a great app.

    It's a little funky to get set up, but you have tons of control. I install this on every device I own.

    As a designer, I love this app. I've had it for a few years on different phones and always come back to it. It can be a bit of a learning curve but if you put the time in you can design all sorts of cool text-based widgets rather than the usual overly-complicated and uncustomisable widgets. Hats off to the designer.

    It has been one of my standard apps on all my phones for years. I still have one feature request: shadows, so that the widgets stand out more. Too bad it's not being developed anymore, but I'm glad it's still in Google Play.

    There is almost no ads. You can basically make any type of widget you want. It is very versatile and high quality. The only problems is #1 Weather is janky #2 No "widget rotation" where you can have a widget automatically change every day. #3 No custom shifting color, like where you could have it automatically shift from blue to red for EX. Those are my only issues with it, EVERYTHING else is is very good and highly recommend (there is a learning curve).
