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.ย  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 thatโ€™s something fixable, especially if thereโ€™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 doesnโ€™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 - canโ€™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.

Open in Safari

Edit: Now it opens in Safari. The developer listens.

I love this. The only reservation is the ability to opening it in safari when clicked.

Unique Widgets - Awesome Support

Must try if you want stand out uniquely tailored widgets. Try windy.com in this app for a live widget you have to see to believe. I now have a widget window into my favorite comic download URL. I contacted developer asking for a bigger window, got a response and bam now this app has a desktop viewer. Another awesome app awesomely supported by Vitaliy Alekseev. Try
Ai Launcher too - easy shortcuts - easy custom apps. Appreciate your innovative apps and the support you provide developer! 5 stars

Works good but..

Update: thank you for the response I will send a video. It seems after I edit the widget a few times after I set the crop and just update then save the lines go away. But it only happens when I try to adjust the crop arrows and then save. If I immediately update it it again and donโ€™t touch the crop arrows the lines go away.
For some reason the crop feature just duplicates over and over and the crop lines are showing on the widget. Otherwise I would buy this app.

Hello, Please write to support through the option in the menu. This bug happens sometimes and I can't catch it. Maybe you can help me to reproduce it.
