PHOTO ALBUM (Photo Widget) User Reviews

Top reviews

Great app!!

I’m honestly shocked this doesn’t have any reviews. This is a great app. The setup is more user-friendly than any similar app I’ve tried. 10/10 would recommend.

My only critique is that I wish that we could adjust how fast the album rotates once the widget is on the home screen. Hopefully they add that feature soon! All in all, I’m super happy with it.

Update: turns out you can adjust how fast the album rotates!! Truly a fantastic app. Use this one for all your photo widget needs.

That feature is already available. After holding the widget - editing the widget - Photo Change Cycle. Also, PHOTO ALBUM can install different pictures for each widget! We appreciate your feedback. We will always try to offer you the very best service. If you have any further questions while using our app, please let us know. Thank you!

I tried a bunch of the other photo widgets and I like this one most

The widgets on the home screen look just as you’d expect them to and shuffle at the right times. All three sizes show different pictures at a time unlike some other photo widgets so you can have more than the same photo showing. I definitely recommend it!

The only thing I could ask for is the ability to add unlimited/more than 100 photos at a time to one of the albums and the ability to preview what the photos will look like on the widget that’s a long rectangle and not a square when cropping them. I’m sure those things could be added in the future though if needed ;)
There’s only one inconvenience I’ve run into but it’s kind of my own fault and not a deal breaker. After selecting a group of photos to add to an album a slide comes up so you can then choose to crop the photos you selected. Unfortunately if you accidentally hit “cancel” on that window, because you crop them all at once, your progress is lost and you’ll have to recrop them again. It’s kind of easy to accidentally hit cancel when you mess up the crop on one of the images and want to redo it because it looks like you’re doing them one at a time but it’s all at once. It’s not a big deal at all as long at you remember to not hit “cancel”.
It’s still a great app and I still recommend it for adding a nice design element to your home screen.

It’s good, however..

Would like to be able to adjust things like interval time between photo switch.

Even the option to transition between different albums.

My big problem with this app is the inability to add multiple photos at once to an album (which can only be done in the app itself) rather than allowing access to an iOS photos folder. If you try to add more than one photo the app will endlessly “load” without importing photo selection.

Hope this feedback helps.

Thank you for using our app. first of all, Tap and hold the widget to select Edit Widget. You can adjust interval time . We will try to improve the photo upload part. Thank you.

Awesome

I was looking for a app that I could customize my widget and not have a slideshow, so this app is designed so that you can do a slideshow so what I did is for every photo I created a new album and best of all I could choose the photo I wanted.

Convient! Good concept

I love that I’m able to pick which album each widget is assigned to cycle through but, after a few hours of use the quality of the picture started to become pixelated. Very promising will still use but that’s the only thing that bugs me.

Intuitive Interface

Intuitive interface allows you to tap and select multiple photos to be in your ‘album’ to be displayed as a widget. All widget sizes supported. Easy to add or remove individual photos without starting over. Tried several similar apps and this is the best user interface that I have seen so far.

PHOTO ALBUM can select albums directly from the widget editor, and we support widgets of all sizes. PHOTO ALBUM will always strive to provide the best services with our simple design and numerous functions. Thank you for your interest and care!
