Add a free trial and lower the prices
Users are essentially beta testers at this stage. The app is still evolving, the functionality is limited, and there’s no proper list of installed apps to choose from. You can create just one widget for free, and there are very few useful free options.
Yet the pricing makes it feel like a fully polished, mature product. Offer a free trial and bring the prices down. Let users explore the app, get used to it, and see its value before asking them to pay for every widget.
You can’t expect people to pay premium prices for a product that still needs work.

Good ideas, needs to mature
I love the widgets, or at least I love the ideas behind them. The implementations are not 100% at the moment (October 26).
I tried the standard drawer, with the Apple Apps, great, just what I want. I bought the widget, but 90% of the apps I use aren’t available, I have requested them, I hope they are added quickly, but, for example, the Amazon icon starts a new browser tab and the link to open in the app says the app isn’t available in the App Store.
I’m guessing it is trying to open a version of the app for a different region.
An option to try the widgets before buying would be useful.
Sorry E, I was a little bit dumb at the weekend and couldn’t find out how to enable health in Halo and cancelled, I discovered it a couple of minutes later… I love the widget, so I have re-purchased it, now the cancellation has gone through.
Update: new version allows shortcuts for all apps that aren’t directly supported. The jump to Shortcuts and then on to the app isn’t ideal, but at least you can add any app directly, without having to wait for an update.
Great idea, when not a perfect solution, it makes the Drawer widget worth it’s money.

Love it!
Love it but I have 2 suggestions.
Would love the option to add an app not in the list without having to request and wait for you to add it. Also, is it possible to have different size draws? (Medium, large, etc).
Update: any chance for an iPad version?

Response from developer
The latest update of the app now allows the first: a one-step Shortcut that opens the app, added through the picker, makes any app a tile with its real icon. On sizes, the drawer stays small on purpose: nine apps in the smallest widget is the product.
Whynot - do it do it
For years E has been dropping beautifully functional and clean designs. Keep them coming!
