User reviews

widget nowhere to be found

i am quite upset as i paid for this app specifically for the widget feature, but there is no widget to begin with. that might be because of the recent ios update, but still. the app is so cool so please fix this asap!!!

Response from developer

Thank you, and sorry it took us so long! We've just released Space Widget 2.0, a big update that fixes this and brings a brand-new design. Because you bought the app, every widget style is included for you at no extra cost. Update the app, then touch and hold your Home Screen, tap Edit and Add Widget, and search for Space Widget. We hope you like it!

Review

I love this app. I use this app on my IPad, the widget looks great and I love the information provided, however…. When I open the app on IPad the picture is so small relative to the screen size. I would recommend an updater for IPad to make the picture full screen and add a text box to click in to.

Response from developer

Thank you for the kind words and the great suggestion! We've just released Space Widget 2.0, a big update with a brand-new design made for iPad too: the picture now fills the whole screen, with its story over it in portrait and beside it in landscape. We hope you like it!
