### 3/5 — Stopped working

*2026-07-30, version 2.1.1*

It was working great but stopped working after the last ios update. I hope it gets fixed or i’ll have to uninstall it.

### 3/5 — Was great, no longer in production?

*2026-04-03, version 2.1.1*

I used this app for years to have stacks that would disappear when I didn’t need the info. Sadly, it hasn’t worked well on my iPhone 16 pro, and since the ios26 update, it has not lined up correctly at all. I tried emailing the support email from their webpage, but it bounced, so I think they have closed shop.

### 4/5 — Wann kommt ein Update?

*2026-03-14*

Fantastische App eigentlich. Allerdings stimmen seit iOS26 die Proportionen nicht mehr und die vorher unsichtbaren freien Bereiche mit den Widgetstapeln sind sichtbar durch feine Linien und Versätze im Bild. Bitte dringend nachbessern, damit der cleane Look wieder gegeben ist.

### 2/5 — Needs new Update

*2026-03-03, version 2.1.1*

out of line for iPhone 17 Pro.

### 2/5 — Not working on Iphone 17

*2026-02-18*

The app was not working as expected on iphone 15, and now with iphone 17 is totally broke. At the beginning it holds the old wallpaper even if it was updated, and when I create a new space inside the app the widget became black. Nothing that I do works.

### 2/5 — Good but lacks versatility

*2026-01-19, version 2.1.1*

The app is clean, simple and works perfectly with the base setting for your phone but doesn’t allow for massive customisation, the widgets don’t line up if you have your icons set to the large mode and if you have your icons set to clear all widgets just become blank and white which holds itself back. All in all a decent app but needs a few updates for IOS 26 to make it worth the purchase

### 2/5 — Cool concept

*2025-11-29, version 2.1.1*

Love the concept but as I “cannot open widget centre” - I spent money on an app I can’t even properly use.

### 2/5 — No update for iOS 26

*2025-10-23, version 2.1.1*

Are you guys going to update this???? Anybody home??? Hello

### 1/5 — So buggy can't use it

*2025-10-15, version 2.1.1*

Nothing works keeps crashing, big waste of money.
I hope they refund me for wasting my time and money

### 1/5 — Iphone 17

*2025-10-06*

It seems this tool is not working for iphone 17, development team please help to make it work for latest iphones.

### 2/5 — No funciona

*2025-09-30, version 2.1.1*

Instale la app en el iPhone 17 pro y la app dejo de funcionar

### 1/5 — IOS 26 - app dead?

*2025-09-26, version 2.1.1*

Think that the app is dead, doubt there will be a fix or update for this on iOS 26.

### 3/5 — Border / lines appear

*2025-09-23, version 2.1.1*

After recent update, widget have white borders or lines. Kindly please remove that lines.

### 1/5 — Useless.  There are no instructions & very buggy

*2025-09-21, version 2.1.1*

When I opened the app there are no instructions or help just a short introduction screen that tells you to take a screen shot of your Home Screen.   Nothing about what to do after that.  When I click on the stuff that looks like an option to add to my screen or something like “weather” it goes to a new screen for a second then jumps right back to the main screen.  This app doesn’t do anything and is a waist of money.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work for iOS 26

*2025-09-21, version 2.1.1*

Please fix.

### 2/5 — Broken with iOS 26

*2025-09-20*

I’m pretty sure that development on this app has ended. 

Widgets are completely broken on iOS 26 and no amount of rebooting fixes the issue. I emailed the developer to the support email address on their site but I’m getting a delivery failure notice. Additionally, this app hasn’t been updated in 11 months, which adds more credence to the fact that development is probably done. 

Such a shame, it was exactly what I wanted and needed out of a blank space app. I don’t want to  pay a subscription just to get a blank space on my Home Screen.

### 1/5 — Update for iOS 26

*2025-09-18, version 2.1.1*

Not working for my 16e. Please update for all models

### 1/5 — Doesnt work

*2025-09-17, version 2.1.1*

Downloaded this to make my IOS26 homescreen look more minimalistic however just didnt work.

### 1/5 — DOES NOT WORK WITH NEW IOS 26

*2026-05-24, version 2.1.1*

Deleting this app until there’s an update for iOS 26. Widgets are no longer seamless.

### 1/5 — Good but needs some improvements

*2026-05-24, version 2.1.1*

Got a new phone and now it doesn’t work. 

Says it’s an iPhone issue and only way to fix is to restart, I’ve done this and still doesn’t work. Waste of money

Instructions were a bit vague.
It is very limited in what you can do with the widgets. There should be multiple text that you can use, otherwise you are just stuck with one text. Same goes for different styles of time and date

Some widgets that are free offer more range than this one

### 1/5 — Not a good app

*2026-05-16, version 2.1.1*

$3 for something that doesn’t work. Neat.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t update

*2026-02-14, version 2.1.1*

Doesn’t work, widget stuck on “tap here to get started..”

### 1/5 — JÁ TENHO O APP PAGO!!

*2026-01-28*

tenho o app pago mas consta que não paguei tenho o recibo!!!!

### 1/5 — Don’t buy right now

*2026-01-19, version 2.1.1*

This app was brilliant, but it doesn’t work with the latest OS. I believe the developer is working on fixing it, but it’s 1 guy and probably not a priority. Don’t buy this right now and wait for it to be fixed.

### 1/5 — Still doesnt work with iOS 26

*2025-12-25*

The app doesnt work when in clear mode on iOS 26 and even when you put it on regular, the picture doesnt line up at all, its super zoomed in and doesnt look good at all. Until its fixed i cant recommend anyone get this app

### 1/5 — Not working for iphone 17

*2025-11-18, version 2.1.1*

Widgets arent working for new iphones. Hopefully they fix it for ios 26

### 1/5 — Needs updating!

*2025-11-07, version 2.1.1*

Their lack of updates is having me look elsewhere

### 1/5 — worked once now broken

*2025-10-23, version 2.1.1*

I have used this app once already when i purchased it almost a year ago. It worked wonderfully and I had no complaints. I went back to the app today as I am changing my theme and it literally is not useable. I cannot make widgets, cannot choose the position, cannot edit the color of the elements in the widget, and can’t change the size of the widgets i’m trying to make, and anything i do manage to make doesn’t save and can’t be added to my home screen. The app is well and truly broken and I wish I hadn’t spent money on it.

### 5/5 — Avoid if you’re on the latest iOS with liquid glass

*2026-07-13, version 2.1.1*

The iOS liquid glass update ruined this app. I regret upgrading

### 5/5 — Thanks! Excellent

*2025-12-06, version 2.1.1*

Thanks. Helped me add blank spaces and therefore even blank screens so I never have to see the Apple App Library again.

Recent iOS 26 is adding a white line around the clear spaces which are therefore not clear anymore. Would be great if this could be solved. iOS 26 might be creating this issue tho.

### 5/5 — Clear Spaces Clean Screen

*2024-09-20, version 2.1*

Quick update for IOS 18 and it’s working well. It does exactly what it says it does. Get it.

### 5/5 — Broken

*2024-07-10, version 2.0.7*

No longer changes between your light and dark mode wallpapers. It will only display your dark mode wallpaper. Seems to be a common issue now. Hope it's fixed!

### 5/5 — Jmvv h bc

*2024-03-11, version 2.0.7*

Mfm cb bbb B jj.           Bb

### 5/5 — Good app

*2024-02-22, version 2.0.7*

This app is great very stable. Lots of options for wizards and background. Will be waiting for part 2.0 can’t wait. You

### 5/5 — Review

*2023-12-27*

Great app, would love it if a option for a photo shuffle background and a 1x1 box were added too.

### 5/5 — Recommend.※BUT

*2023-11-18*

下記に日本語有I recommend this app 100%.BUT this is limited for me.
BECAUSE WE CAN CHANGE ONLY ONE EIDGET’s IMAGE.If I put 2 widgets,they became the same image (I setting).if I put 2 widgets in different pages,they become the same image.

So,I recommend who want to put “only” 1 image.Can’t put different image on my screen.
Be careful.

このアプリは1つのウィジェットのみに対して効果があります。ホーム画面の同じページに2、3個ウィジェット画像を置いたとします。ですが反映できるのは1つの画像だけです。2、3個同じ画像が表示されるようになるだけです。
また、異なるページにウィジェットをおいても同じ画像が反映されます。良いアプリですが要注意。

### 5/5 — Polecam

*2023-11-17, version 2.0.7*

polecam tą aplikację ,w dość łatwy sposób można zmodyfikować ekran początkowy

### 5/5 — Great app

*2023-10-25, version 2.0.7*

Would be great if I can pick a different between hour and minute clock’s hands color.
