Money hungry

?? Trial expired? Thought it was good until I had to pay after using for 2 days and a half.

Btw it’s 4 dollars per week and 0.38 per week for yearly. I don’t think they’re should be a trial for a gif widget app but who’s gonna stop?

Paywall

Literally can’t use the app. Everything is locked behind a paywall. Seriously why isn’t there an ad watch option instead.

It has a catch

It works and is easy to use, the video is also very clear, but you can only have the video for a short amount of time before it says you have to pay for it. The text blocks the widget and puts a blur on it alongside a lock image. If you are willing to pay for it I suppose it is worth it but it is quite expensive.

stop charging money if u want people to use it

Bro it keeps charging me money to make flipping widgets

Response from developer

Hey, thanks for the feedback and sorry for the frustration. We hear you and will take it into consideration going forward.

Nice features but demanding money

Overall, this app is nice and has amazing features, it demands you for money, not worth it!

Response from developer

Really appreciate the honest feedback, and I hear you on the price. We're on it. Thanks for giving us a fair shot.

Liked it

Very good👍

Response from developer

Thank you! 👍 Really glad you liked it.

I like it

My video is really cute

Response from developer

⁠Hi, thank you so much! So glad your video looks cute on your Home Screen 🧡

There’s a paywall

You gotta pay to make more than one widget. Don’t get this.

Response from developer

⁠Thanks for the feedback, and sorry for the frustration. We hear you on the paywall, and we're actively looking into how to make Video Widget more useful before asking anything in return. Appreciate your patience while we work on it.

I don't want to pay for widgets

I can't do anything for free💀

Response from developer

Thanks for taking the time to share this. We hear you, and we're looking into how to give more value upfront for free. Hang tight, improvements are on the way.

Im not paying bro

Im not paying for a widget 🥀

Response from developer

Totally fair! Just so you know, you can try everything free for 7 days before paying a cent. We put a lot of work into keeping the widgets smooth, fresh, and fully customizable, and we'd love the chance to show it's worth it. If there's something that would make it a yes for you, tell us, we genuinely read every bit of feedback.

I can’t make another widget

One thing I like about the app is the video widget on my Home Screen is smooth and not glitching like other apps. What I don’t like is that I can only make one widget, when I go back into the app it asks me to pay and I can’t exit out of it. Why make it free but then you have to pay for it, just make certain things cost money, but the rest adds. I was really excited to use the app, but now I’m frustrated because I can only make one widget and I can’t get behind and paywall

Thanks, really glad the widget runs smooth for you, that's exactly what we aim for and where we spend a huge amount of time. I hear you on the widget limit and the paywall, and I'm sorry it left you frustrated. Your feedback on the free-vs-paid balance genuinely shapes what we build next.

Passt

The worst app i ever used in my entire life

They didn’t even let me upload one video . They straight up ask me to pay . Tf is thatt??? Feel like they r robbing

Response from developer

Hello Charlotteevelyn, We hear you—it's frustrating to be asked to pay before uploading videos, and we understand how that feels. We're checking into this to ensure our pricing is clearer. If you have more details or specific concerns, please reach out through the in-app support option. We hope you might discover features you enjoy in the future! 😊

Are we serious😭🥀

You can make one widget then it won’t let you leave a subscription sign up even if u reset

Response from developer

⁠You should never be stuck on the subscription screen with no way out, and we're sorry. That sounds like a bug on top of the paywall frustration, and we're looking into it. In the meantime, please message us via in-app support so we can help you directly.

Bonjour,
J’aime beaucoup beaucoup cette application, c’est pour cela que je l’ai acheté. Serait-il possible de mettre en favoris les vidéos que j’ai choisi. Parce que, quand on n’a plusieurs vidéos on n’arrive plus à avoir les toutes premières, et je voudrais quand même les garder.
Que pensez-vous de ma demande??
Merci d’avance

N'hésitez pas à nous contacter via la fonctionnalité d'assistance de l'application afin que nous puissions bien comprendre votre demande.

Horrible

I saw it on TikTok saying it’s complete free after 10 mins of sighning in it say ok now let’s sort out a subscription 1:99 a week or £2:99 a month

Response from developer

Thanks for flagging this. To be clear, we don't run any ads saying Video Widget is completely free, so if you saw one on TikTok it wasn't from us. The app is free to download, and creating widgets currently needs a subscription. If you still have that ad, please send it to support@videowidget.com so we can get it reported and taken down. We're also looking into making our own messaging clearer.

Response from developer

😄 Oh, we solved it... and that's a cheeky word to sneak under 4 stars! We'll happily take the stars and keep working to prove that guess wrong. Thanks for the laugh! 🎬

DEATH NOTEEE

JADOREEEE

It's the best

Dude my friends love my wallpaper now

Response from developer

Hi Sofiskzfan! We're excited that your friends are loving your wallpaper! It’s great to hear you’re having a fun experience with it. If you have any other feedback or need assistance, feel free to reach out! 😊

I hate this, wouldn’t try that much unless..

It’s great when you can make widgets but since you locked it behind a “free” paywall people don’t want to make widgets or can’t anymore, it’s stupid how you must pay to do a free thing, why don’t you just do ads instead? That way people can make widgets without a paywall and you still get money because of them doing it, and I don’t like how when you click on the widget it says locked or whatever and it tells you you have to pay to get it back. 1/10 unless you do something else to get money like ads.

Response from developer

This is genuinely useful, thank you. You're not the only one suggesting an ad-supported option instead of a paywall, and it's something we're looking into. We want to make access fairer, and feedback like this really helps. Appreciate you taking the time to lay it out.
