broken

No matter what you do, widgets created with this app just open this app. I’m not even trying to do anything fancy, just open a url.

Not iOS 26 Compatible

I have used this great app for a while with previous iOS versions, but with the upgrade to iOS 26 I no longer see my widget content. Please update!

Add Live Activities support

PLEASE add the ability to add Live Activities.

App needs an update

App worked until the most recent iOS update. Please create an update so the widgets I made with this app still work!

Please fix the bugs

Please, fix the bugs. The app would be of so much value if you could fix it.

Change subtitle?

Is there any way to change the subtitle under the widget?

Sketchy app

Tried to access sensitive information within my Gmail account when linked with oAuth

Pls fix this bug

I am trying to use rss feed but it says “The resource could not be loaded because the App Transport Security policy requires the use of a secure connection.” Please fix this. Also nothing happens when I paste in the iCloud link so I just add to recode it in the flow part.

Very buggy and unusable

I’m trying to add a flow that references a google sheet. I click that button and this begins the death spiral of that page opening and closing incessantly until the app eventually crashes. Unusable.

Needs updates

Weather app with shortcuts do not work anymore

frustrating to use

the gui is jank and when I add a widget on my lock screen there's faint text saying "next batch entr..." on top of the actual widget

Unable to access Google Sheets

When trying to sign in, Google is reporting “
This app is blocked

This app tried to access sensitive info in your Google Account. To keep your account safe, Google blocked this access.”

That doesn’t sound good…

Awesome App (But…)

Very well made, looks apple official I’d say.

Only problem is that pasting the iCloud link doesn’t work anymore so that feature is completely unusable. It would be nice if that was fixed, since it’s sorta the only thing that sets it apart from the other apps like it.

Aside from that, great job developer!

Love Power Widgets, but I hope it will be updated soon.

I really love power widgets. There’s a bit of a learning curve, but it is very versatile.

However, I hope it can be updated soon! Some things I would like to see are:
• Larger Lock Screen widgets on iPadOS
• More frequent updates so that a digital clock widget is actually possible
• WatchOS complications and Smart Stack widgets
• Interactive widgets, so there could be actions preferred without opening the app
• An even finer grid for placing objects. Perhaps on screen arrows for fine-tuning placement

Crashes / Bugs

App has such huge potential, as others have said it seems to crash a lot! Bugs such as foreground changing background colour are intermittent. Colour gradient slider does not show when selecting edit, creating a widget and then not being able to customise again/shows old settings. If all the crashes and bugs were fixed this would be a simply amazing 5* app!

Very useful, but needs work.

I really like Power Widgets. It enables me to make unique widgets with information form just about anywhere. However, I have had many problems with the editor. After a little bit of working on a flow, it becomes impossible to select variables, forcing me to start from scratch. I have also issues with specific actions, such as regex replacing not being properly implemented, and post requests not working properly. Overall, I still definitely recommend this app if you are prepared to invest a little time to get the widget to work like you want.

I hope the developer can improve this app in the future. Developer, reply to this review, and I’d be happy to provide you with more information about the issues I am facing with Power Widgets. Let’s get this app to 5 ★s!

Junk.

App does not load the shortcut link. Crashes every time

Response from developer

Some actions are not available. If so, it won’t be able to load the shortcut. You can try building it in the in-app editor instead.

Needs a lot of work done

I can’t seem to import any of my shortcuts using an icloud link and rss feed content is not showing up in the widget but is in the flow.

I tried making a widget to show current temperature but was unable to find any way to convert it from °C to °F

The keyboard sometimes disappears when working in flow.

Great premise, but location services don’t work

Seems like a great idea, but location services don’t work on widgets. It needs the option for “while using the app or widgets”, not just “while using the app”.

Additionally, it would be great to get HomeKit statuses as an option.

Until either of those is fixed, unfortunately this is pretty useless.
