i'm not sure about this app. I don't hate it but i don't love it. Obviously it makes my home screen look a lot better so that's nice. I like how you can pick your own pictures and it's pretty easy to work with. I Hate how under the pictures it says "Widgetsmith" so i wish that was gone cause it bugs me. I understand if it can't be removed but that's definitely one of my cons. I wish you could customize the way the apps look cause it looks weird when i have sunny pictures and i have an orange game sitting in the middle. To Developers: It would be great if you could make the apps have some sort of cover to make it go with a certain theme. Right now i'm thinking if i should download Themify cause it has this but i'm not sure yet. If you get this game and your looking for something to make the apps all look neon or something then don't get this cause it's just widgets but if you want pictures popped up around your home screen then this is a good app for you. Have a nice day and i hope this review helps anyone reading this

I’m really enjoying Widgetsmith!!
I have been able to decorate my home page with this app and I love all of the festive joy it brings me (it’s Christmas when this review was sent)! Partnered with shortcuts app customising, Widgetsmith is the perfect way to really get into the feeling of whatever u wanna celebrate or even if theres no occasion, you just wanna spice up your phone! There’s even a little tutorial on how to set up a widget on your home page!

Love it but...
This app is genuinely so good like I swear it’s amazing for making your phone pretty and aesthetic without having to waste money. I mean of course there is a way you can spend money on the app it’s an option if you want to add more things, but it’s great if you don’t want to spend money and still want cute widgets. The one downfall is that sometimes the widgets that you want don’t show up when you try to change it. This is bad for me mainly im not sure about anyone else but I know it is for me. The reason I say that is because sometimes I don’t have time to wait 10 minutes for a widget to pop up. Today is the only exception and that’s because im going on a 12 hour car trip to cali. Other then that I can’t really have the time to wait. That’s my one complaint it’s simple but also very important for saving time.

Super great for organization, however..
I love this app, It helps make my phone look all the more stylish, however I do have some complaints, but they are minor ones such as, When you have an event on the calendar widget, theres no special indicator for the day on the widget unless it’s happening today or tomorrow, also for the countdown I wish there was an option for it to automatically repeat after it completes, for example if you have one for when school ends, or when your work shift ends, you can just set it to the next day when its over which is fine, its a minor inconvenience. Finally is there a way to store more than one custom theme, or can you only store one and manually input another? Anyways other than those minor inconveniences this app is a 5/5, Its easy to use, Super convenient (minus those few things), You don’t need the subscription to enjoy the app, and it helps you add a bit more flair to your phone.

Used to be better
I just changed phones and updated the app and boy do I wish I could undo. One of the two functions I used the app for I can’t find. I used to adore timed widgets. Where you could set a certain time for the widget to change. I know that they have albums now, which change about 15 minutes, but it would be nice to be able to make some photos occur at certain times of the day, or have one photo up for longer than another. For example, I used to be able to have a large widget change between 2 photos and a small one change between matching 5 photos where 2 small photos could match one big photo and the 3 other small photos could match the other big photo. Now it won’t synch like that.
I will say it still works, no bugs. Photos show up when selected. It’s just disappointing when one of the only things I used this app for no longer shows up.

Amazing with an idea
So this is a great app and it makes my home screen look absolutely amazing ,but the one thing that i wish would be added is grouping. Ok hear me out. So i change my home screen lots because i love different colours but it get a bit frustrating sometimes with everything… so what if on the app you could group your widgets after placing them on your home screen so that all you have to do is press a groups and have that screen with those widgets like that. It would personally be a massive time saver as i also like going back to some of the designs i have had!

Good app, but you need to fix a FEW of things…
Overall, Widgetsmith is a pretty good app. But, as all apps have, there are a few pretty annoying attributes. For example, nobody will want to pay to get weather on their widgets. Also, some of the themes that are cute are for premium only. Another pretty annoying thing is that when I create my default widget style, it never makes it the default. I always have to select the “default” option, which is all the way at the bottom. But, as this app has its downsides, it also has its upsides. I love that you can create gradient/ombré wallpapers, and the widget customization is phenomenal. Some apps that aren’t specifically designed for widgets (unlike this one) have horrible customization for widgets, but this one is good. Overall, this app is a pretty good app.

Amazing app! feature request!
First hour of using this app I have spent that hour souly on messing around with it. This is absolutely the best app I have used in a long while.
I do request a feature, where we can customize the rectangular image on the lockscreen widgets, and make it have rounded corners, it currently has sharp corners, and it really stands out compared to the circular image.

Great But...
The app is great but I really wish that you could select a photo background for all of the widgets but otherwise great
Luv it!
This is the best app ever, you can use it to make amazing widgets, there are so many good themes that are free you don’t even have to pay! Are use Shortcuts to change my app icons and widget Smith to add widgets that are the aesthetic that I like! It really makes my phone for a lot more like my phone! You can also use it on tablet/iPad, The only thing which some people won’t like is that when you get the widgets it says widget Smith underneath a widget but I don’t really mind! There’s three different sizes to make your widget, I love this app so much overall I think you should get it!
