Even pro version can't display all of crop area

They made a feeble attempt top to provide instructions,but the instructions reference nonexistent choices which,even if interpreted,lesson lead in circles. Glad I didn't buy.

Response from developer

Hello, if you have any problems, please contact support from the application menu. The app has video instructions available on YouTube.

Works well

Works very well and was very much worth the money - haven’t used for very long so will update after a while but so far so good; useful and better/more easily maneuverable than similar apps (ex. Glimpse). Also has native apps for iPad AND iPhone which I appreciate very much.

One of the top Widget tools!

I’ve used this tool mainly to create weather related widgets. Compared to all the others I’ve tried, this one has easily risen to the top. A few items on my wish list that would really set this app apart from all the others:
- Adding the larger 4x2 widget size iOS 15 now supports
- Backing up saved widgets to allow them to be imported between devices
- Ability to group widgets in categories
- Option to adjust the browser font size that is used to view the web site. This would be TREMENDOUSLY helpful with reflowing text on sites that have text stretched across the screen that you are trying to make fit in the fixed widget frame size and still allow one to read the text.
Show less

hello, its better to write feature requests to support from app menu. I will research your requests. As for now you can backup widgets settings and restore them on other device. There is an option in app menu.

Functionally useless without micro transactions

I should be able to refresh manually for free. Useless. Cool way to show a static webpage, I guess?

Response from developer

hello, you can update widgets manually for free.  Please tap on the widget and press the Update button.

It works well enough

Probably the best option for what it does. On reload, the snapshot can slip, for lack of better words, though. Not sure if that’s something fixable, especially if there’s cookie disclaimer. Otherwise, great!

Things that should be simple are hard

This is a very frustrating little widget - the idea is good, but the execution is terrible. Trying to frame a webcam photo is nearly impossible- it doesn’t let you adjust the distance from the top of the page properly. There is no useful preview of what your widget will look like.

Response from developer

Hello, please watch the video tutorial from the application menu on how to crop content . Or write to support from the application menu. Also you can use the direct link to the image to use this image in the widget. So no need to crop HTML page content.

Great app

This app is great but I could do without the permanent outline box on screen when I open the widget.

3gb for 5 websites

Why does it take 3gb of local storage? I cleared the cache but still the same

Response from developer

Hello, Please check the latest update. I have improved the clearing of the cache. If this does not help, please write to the support service from the application menu.

Unique

New ability to run URL schemes off the widget is fantastic. Being able to run shortcuts off of auto-updating web screenshots essentially gives you live tiles. This is the only web screenshot on the App Store that I can find that does this - can’t recommend this enough!

Response from developer

Thanks

Great Widget

I use this App/Widget to keep track of a web forum I moderate. The developer is adding features regularly and the Pro version is priced right. Very happy with the added functionality it provides.

Response from developer

Thanks for your feedback. The minimum update interval is limited by Apple in iOS. I believe this is done to prevent battery draining. In the next versions we will try to speed up the update and add new features. This is just the beginning of the journey.
