Cannot hide dock

That’s my whole reason for this, to go minimalist. The dock still there doesn’t work.

How am I supposed to pay for something I can’t even try?

I would genuinely love to give this app a fair shot and potentially leave a positive review, but the fact that I can’t even explore the interface, see its features, or get a feel for how it works without paying first is a huge turnoff.

I have absolutely no problem paying for an app that provides value, but expecting users to commit to a subscription before they’ve even had a chance to experience the product is ridiculous. Screenshots and descriptions only tell you so much. I want to know what I’m actually paying for.

At the very least, offer a 24-hour free trial or limited access to the basic features so people can make an informed decision. If the app is genuinely good, letting people experience it firsthand should be a selling point, not something to avoid

Has potential but it’s clunky

Love the idea. I’m diving in but it needs some real big tweaks. Here’s what I don’t need and what I do need instead.

DON’T need: nearly every junk app on the App Store

DO need: every app that’s on my phone (rover???)

DON’T need: every font in existence

DO need: more than one “top widget” at a time

How’s this work?

Maybe it’s just me, but I don’t get how this works. Kind of regret paying for it. I’ll keep at it to see if it’ll work out for me, but I’m not very confident it will.

Ruined my phone

I paid for a year since it was cheap enough. Tired to make it work, buts it wasn’t user friendly. Now that I’ve deleted the app my phone is still acting like it’s still on my phone after a restart. I think I’ll have to factory reset my phone to get it back to normal. This sucks!
