Question

I’ve been trying to set my widgets to 100% transparency but they never get applied is this a bug or a limitation?

Response from developer

Thanks for your message. This is not supported currently, but I will keep it in mind for one of the upcoming updates. Kind regards

Fantástico!

Una idea fantástica, bien desarrollada y a un precio muy bueno. Mis dieces. Estaría genial poder sincronizarlo con el móvil!

Very Handy, I like it

This offers a traditional friendly feel to shortcut management. The app is solid, I’ve had zero issues. I really like it.

Gran idea

La idea es genial, estoy tratando de terminar de tener claro el funcionamento, tiene tutoriales, quiero poder tener accesos directos de OneDrive

This app could be a godsend...

Needs more functionality and updates with new ios versions-integrate it as deeply as possible into ios system and the share possibilities as well as shortcuts in Safari etc-would pay one-off more just for a more native-feeling integration with ios base home...
