### 2/5 — No update fixes

*2025-12-13, version 3.3*

It worked in the beginning, but now it’s pretty much terrible. It doesn’t work at all…

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2025-11-04, version 3.2*

Once the picture is selected and cropped the way you like it, the app crashes or when you’re ready to add the picture disappears resulting in a black wallpaper added to the watch. I closed the app and that did not help.

### 3/5 — It doesn’t work on my Apple Watch Ultra

*2025-10-03, version 3.2*

I was going strong with the this app for years. But it doesn’t look like it works on my Apple Watch Ultra. So now I am out of really dope photos😞

### 5/5 — Huch, besser als erwartet

*2024-02-25*

Nices Accessoire für die Applewatch um ein ,,Widget'' selber zu gestalten. Bin positiv überrascht und freue mich sehr über die App.

### 4/5 — アップデート希望

*2023-10-27*

「特大」という文字盤の中央にコンプリケーションを1つ設定出来ますが、本アプリは未対応です…
対応してください！！お願いします。

### 3/5 — 不是彩色的了

*2023-10-12*

不是彩色的了

### 5/5 — Funktioniert nicht

*2022-08-05*

Selbst nach Neustart von apple watch und IPhone funktioniert die app leider nicht.

### 5/5 — Perfect app

*2022-02-01, version 3.2*

I came across this whilst searching for Apple Watch complications, and I'm glad I did. 

Great functionality, sooo easy to use, and it's far more useful than first thought. The editing functions for the text overlay are great, and the ability to zoom into and out of images to fit the pre-marked parameters of the display-sized box is very handy. 

Best of all is the fact that the saved images can be switched rapidly from the complications menu in the Watch companion app. Superb. 

Bargain at £1.79.

### 4/5 — might’ve not read description lol

*2021-12-26, version 3.2*

seems like a good app but sadly have a apple watch 3 and saw the description after, anyways would be cool if there was a way to add support for apple watch 3

### 1/5 — More input needed.

*2021-11-23, version 3.0*

Your app doesn’t show the pixel sizes for resizing an image to.
