I want it to work normally so I actually have LIVE Not in six hours please creator make it functional ### 3/5 — Doesn’t show numbers after 1000 *2026-02-03, version 2.8.5* Meh 😢 ### 2/5 — No se vincula mi cuenta *2025-09-16, version 2.8.1* 15 de septiembre del 2025 y no me deja vincular mi cuenta de y YouTube ni con nombre del canal ni con el ID ### 4/5 — SubWidget *2025-05-11, version 2.8.1* I hope have more update to change layout details ### 2/5 — Needs Improvement *2025-03-23, version 2.8.1* I purchased the SubWidget app for my iPhone 11, but it’s not updating every 30 minutes as expected. Also, whenever I click on the widget, it automatically opens YouTube instead of just refreshing the stats. Please fix this issue. ### 3/5 — it’s ok *2024-07-16, version 2.7* how do u put the widget there ### 2/5 — Ne fonctionne pas *2024-02-01, version 2.3.2* Impossible d’ajouter le widget l’appli apparaît même pas dans les paramètres ### 3/5 — Clean but issue with widget *2023-10-11, version 2.2.0* The app and interface is reliable and really clean, with a nice hint to iOS official apps. Though on my iPhone 12, the widgets are a bit zoomed in, making some of the text and the youtube icon cut off ### 2/5 — Not compatible with iPhone *2023-10-01, version 2.1.6* When I try to download this app it says iOS 16 or later can you make it iOS 15 and later so I can download it on my iPhone 7? ### 2/5 — Widgets are white? Something wrong *2023-09-28, version 2.2.0* Widgets are white? Something wrong ### 4/5 — Good for what it does, but a bit limited in its use *2022-12-17, version 2.1.1* I like the design of the widgets. It’s clean and customizable. But I can’t help but wonder if this can be taken a bit further. Maybe adding a total views counter, total uploads counter, etc. on the medium/large widget? ### 2/5 — Es lädt zu langsam *2022-12-14, version 2.1.1* Es lädt zu langsam und sollte schneller aktualisieren ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Money Digger *2026-08-02, version 2.9.9* Basically requires a subscription for everything. And also the widget itself. ### 1/5 — Ask for subscription to use basic things *2026-07-30, version 2.9.9* It ask for a subscription for everything to change the length so I can’t used it in my stack and I can’t get notifications for milestones. ### 1/5 — Ça ne fonctionne pas *2025-10-23, version 2.8.2* Le compteur ne s’actualise pas, j’ai payé pour rien. ### 1/5 — Not for macOS *2025-03-05, version 2.8.1* I don’t know if it would work elsewhere but it does NOT work on macOS. On my Mini M4 it says I have to 'tap and hold the widget' which is of course impossible. ### 1/5 — Cannot fetch channel *2025-02-18, version 2.8.1* Cannot fetch channel even even when using channel ID ### 1/5 — fix your app *2023-09-11, version 2.1.2* just updated, and now it's stop working, it's saying network error. ### 1/5 — Paid for this and it doesn’t display anything. *2023-08-31, version 2.1.1* Waste of money. ### 1/5 — Not showing widget on display *2022-12-06, version 2.1.1* Subwidget not showing on widget section ### 1/5 — The widget doesn’t update! *2022-11-21, version 2.1.1* No matter what you do, uninstall, reset, change refresh to 30 mins the actual Sub count hasn’t moved! I’ve gained 50 new subs in 8 hours & it’s remained the same! 🤷‍♂️ ### 1/5 — Bug *2022-09-24, version 2.1.0* L’application ne fonctionne pas correctement.. il y a un bug d’affichage au niveau du widget. C’est dommage. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Awesome widget! *2026-05-06, version 2.9.8* Great app for keeping track of your YT subscribers and views! ### 5/5 — More Fonts! *2026-03-23, version 2.9.6* I’ve been using SubWidget for a while now, and honestly, it’s one of the cleanest and most aesthetic subscriber counter apps out there. The design is super smooth, minimal, and satisfying to look at—perfect if you like keeping track of your growth in a visually pleasing way. What I really love is how easy it is to use. Everything feels intuitive, and the live subscriber count updates make it exciting to check your progress throughout the day. The custom fonts are a great touch too—they add personality and make the widget feel unique instead of generic. One thing I’d love to see in future updates is even more font options. You already have a solid selection, but expanding it would take customization to the next level and let users match their exact style or vibe. Overall, amazing app—clean, useful, and beautifully designed. Keep up the great work, and I’m excited to see how it improves over time! ### 5/5 — Masterpiece! *2026-02-09* Aesthetic design of this widget is so cool. **Developer response:** Thank you! Glad you like it ### 5/5 — Cool *2025-03-02, version 2.8.1* Application vraiment bien je recommande ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ### 5/5 — Error *2025-01-29, version 2.8.1* I'm trying to add my YouTube channel ID, but I get the message "Can't find your channel?" And I already verified that I,m placing the correct ID, but the same message still appears ### 5/5 — Top App *2024-12-10, version 2.8.1* Cool App. One time payment. No gimmicks. Love it. ### 5/5 — Encouraging! *2024-11-17, version 2.8.1* I appreciate seeing my channel grow JIT ### 5/5 — Thank you *2024-03-15, version 2.5* Finally an app that works. Thank you so much ### 5/5 — One job done well *2023-01-11, version 2.1.1* A good looking widget producing app to keep an eye on your YouTube subscribers. Simple and effective - recommended ! ### 5/5 — Great app! (Rounded numbers) *2022-12-21, version 2.1.1* I reached out to the developer frustrated that the app wasn’t showing the exact number of subscribers. He let me know the way YouTube gives out data is by a multiple of 10, so the app rounds to the nearest 10 multiple. Once you reach 10k subscribers then it rounds by the 100. The developer responded incredibly quickly! And was very helpful. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
