### 2/5 — Upset

*2025-08-13*

Really upset I bought this app. There’s ads. On a paid app. I can’t even edit the bottom row because the stupid ad doesn’t go away. Finally was able to make a custom one and it straight up doesn’t work. They bombard you with wanting to buy thier “new” app that’s another 2$ after buying this one. There’s free apps better than this one. I feel so lied to buying this.

### 1/5 — doesn’t work

*2025-06-29, version 1.3.0*

can’t save themes. which is essentially the whole point of the app. refunded.

### 3/5 — Blurred album colors don’t reach ends of widget

*2024-10-30*

I like this widget so far, only one I’ve found that you can use actions with the widget

Only problem I’ve found is when I use album cover art as the background color, it doesn’t fill the entire widget, there are bars on each side that are a different color - if there’s any fix for this let me know!! 

Would also be cool if eventually there was a partially transparent background option so it half blends into background wallpaper

### 1/5 — Scam!

*2024-07-13*

If you pay for this app know that you're paying for a Big propaganda app.the widgets doesn't work correctly and anything you need to do can only be done if you purchase another app. A pirámide scheme.

### 2/5 — Want to give it 5* but it’s very unstable for me…

*2024-04-04*

Seems very hit and miss across the broad selection of widgets which I love especially the one we can customise also love it works with both Spotify and Apple Music but the widget then does nothing but a weird jumping up like it’s going to launch then back to a widget. I’ve tried rebooting and all other tricks with no luck. Seems to occasionally with with AM in the mid size widgets and even then it’ll crash so you are left with either control center or Dynamic Island control. I’d like to of tried the pro version had this of been a stable experience I no doubt would’ve as do like a widget that works and can be customised. So hope the dev cab fix with updates and give us some reliability to this - it could & would be a great if that happened 😎👍

### 2/5 — don’t buy

*2024-01-23, version 1.2.0*

it shows pictures of most listened to artists and songs as options as widgets but isn’t even an option in the app
waste of money bru

### 4/5 — Good but….

*2023-10-27*

Would love a transparent back ground option, so I can see my background, rather than having to pick a colour, photo or the dynamic option

### 4/5 — Please update ios16 version

*2022-10-04, version 1.1.2*

Please update ios16😢，press next song button will act weird🥺

### 5/5 — Great app, worth the purchase, a few things tho:

*2022-08-29*

Hey, I loved this app! It works pretty well and looks amazing but all I would love to request is just make the play button more responsive? (if possible) and maybe add some more options.

Thanks!

### 1/5 — MusicView

*2022-08-04, version 1.1.2*

It won’t let me skip and pause
