Widget is fail
The app is simple enough to take your default background and add text to the image and save. That use case works.
The Lock Screen widget fails its most important use case. Once you fill in the info and place the widget on the lock screen, it shows when locking the phone. BUT if you _restart_ the phone the widget does not display any info _until_ the phone is unlocked. This makes it broken.
If my phone is lost and runs out of charge, then the widget won’t help anyone who finds/recharges the phone.
Or if my phone is taken and turned off, if recovered and turned on then the widget won’t help get it returned to me.
So only decent use for this app is as an image editor.
5 stars for simple image edit

Widget Unmovable
After placing the text widget on lock screen it remains unmovable and sizing handles never appear.
So simple effective and non- intrusive!
No collecting of your data, just something easy to use that helps you protect your phone against loss. Thank you!
Perfect and easy to use!
Downloaded this to replace an old app that was no longer compatible with my new iPad. Wanted to place my phone number on my lock screen photo…this did exactly that. I am not super tech savvy but this was easy to use and provided enough options to make it look nice too. Thanks!
Excellent utility for adding text to a picture.
Well designed and simple utility for adding a text box to an existing picture, or to a new blank (coloured) frame, which can then be used as wallpaper for your Lock screen and/or Home Screen. Or just for annotating a picture. Comprehensive font, text-box, colour, transparency controls, but it can’t create a graded-colour/shaded blank background.

Simple and does the job
More flexible and easier to use than some competing apps. An easy way to put your contact details on the lock screen in case your phone is lost.
My hat is off to you, sir!
I’ll first say, I’m coming from a mobile Android platform and my opinion is that iOS app offerings are abysmal. Most seem scammy, hound you for ratings, micro-transactions, etc.
This app is the soonest honest, credible solution to my problem of wanting to customize my iPhone to have a simple message displayed on my home screen.
I’m used to widgets on Android and, on that platform, would be literally bombarded with practical and ideal solutions. Your app is a saving grace in an otherwise bleak and barren App Store landscape.
Thank you for creating a very practical and friendly piece of software. I hope to see more great things!
Cheers,
Zac

Great in emergencies too
Not everyone knows about ICE, so useful for emergencies as well as a lost phone.
Does exactly what I wanted
Thank you!
Great idea - and simple to use
Lots of flexibility in this, based around a simple useful idea - so you can get your phone back if it's lost.
