I’ve had no issues with hanging or crashes. So far the widgets have been very stable. One of my favorite parts of this widget package is how they look which IMO is very nice. I you like widgets I would definitely give these a try. ### 3/5 — Abandoned but still okay. *2019-09-21, version 1.1.1* I emailed support with a bug report and it bounced back.

Some of you want the event being displayed entirely. I'm working on it. - Twitter widget : detection of the native twitter app working - Data Manager : Thanks to Rob's comment, the Data Manager will now fit perfectly to the screen. Don't hesitate to send an email at support@widget-kit.com if you find any others (you don't need to rate the app one/two/three stars to make me consider any remarks or issues ;) ) Don't forget to (re)rate the app if you like it, your comments are my best pay back ! ### 1.1 — 2016-03-04 7 months of waiting and Widget Kit is out with a new version ! I hope you will enjoy it ! First of all, let me thank you all for your very kind comments, this is very helpful to improve Widget Kit. So don't hesitate to send me reports or questions at support@widget-kit.com. I am super fast to answer ! What is new ? - Tons of bugs fixed - Support of the almost new iPhone 6S/6SPlus - You can now unlock widgets by watching ads. - Widget Twitter : Maybe one of the best Twitter Widget available on the store ( yes I know, you'll tell me " that's easy, there are no other Twitter Widgets" -_-' ). With this widget you can like, tweet and retweet very easily directly from the notification center. You'll be able to track your timeline but also any timelines you are interested in ! Try it ! - Widget News : Also certainly the best News widget on the store. Track your favorite News feeds and save any news to read it later. You can super easily read the summary without having to unlock your iDevice, and even open the website directly ! Personally, this is my favorite widget, I use it all the time. - Many of you have asked for other lines into the Widget Box widget. Unfortunately, this was impossible to develop due to the memory limitation Apple has set on Widgets (for instance, a widget can use 12Mo at its maximum, against 1Go for a normal app). So to answer your demand, and avoid the memory problem, I have created two new "Widget Boxes" that will do the same job as the previous one ;) - The widget calendar is now entirely customizable ! Change the color, the size and more ! ### 1.0 — 2015-07-16 No release notes. ## Apps similar to Widget Kit | App | Rating | Price | Category | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | [SYSTEM UTIL Dashboard Light](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/system-util-dashboard-light/id578120541) | 4.6 (257) | Free | Utilities | | [Multi Countdown Timer](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/multi-countdown-timer/id1433183539) | 4.7 (7) | Free | Utilities | | [TextWatch: Complications](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/textwatch-complications/id1524130899) | 3.3 (27) | Free | Utilities | | [DayHub - Up Next Widget](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/dayhub-up-next-widget/id1535397566) | 4.6 (31) | Free | Utilities | | [NetSnips: Web Clips Dashboard](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/netsnips-web-clips-dashboard/id507888242) | 4.6 (39) | Free | Utilities | | [Widget Timer](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/widget-timer/id1447612547) | 4.1 (175) | Free | Utilities | ## More apps by Romain Cayzac - [Quick Solitaire : Play in notification center as widget](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/quick-solitaire-play-in-notification-center-as-widget/id1125681884) All apps by Romain Cayzac: https://appshunter.io/developer/982272882 ## Related topics [free widgets games](https://appshunter.io/ios/topics/free-widgets-games) --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
