### 2/5 — 使えない

*2023-10-25*

### 3/5 — Works well but

*2022-12-07*

Opens to select animation before starting the previously selected animation. Seems like a bug. Always opens when your screen is already on. I don’t think that’s necessary because you can easy tell from the green battery at the top of your screen. Also doesn’t work if you have the screen locked which isn’t great. I suppose this is because it relies on shortcuts.

### 5/5 — iPhone 12pro

*2022-12-07*

The idea is great, but when you start it asks for a password code, after that the widget starts
