DISCOVER YOUR NEXT WIDGET Explore a gallery filled with distinctive clocks, calendars, photos, countdowns, quotes, colors, and activity designs. Each design is presented in the formats where it works best, so you can choose with confidence. Add a design exactly as it appears or customize it before saving. MAKE IT YOURS Depending on the design, you can personalize: • Fonts and typography • Background, text, and accent colors • Clock and date formats • Quotes and custom text • Countdown titles and dates • Photos and visual styles • Health and activity presentation HOME SCREEN WIDGETS Create beautiful widgets for the Home Screen, including: • Clocks and calendars • Photo widgets • Quotes and custom text • Event countdowns • Step count • Resting heart rate • Solid color widgets • Design inspiration Different ideas need different amounts of space.

Choose from Inline, Circular, and Rectangular designs for: • Date and time • Countdowns • Step count • Resting heart rate These are purpose-built compositions—not Home Screen designs squeezed into a smaller space.

If you’re going to make your app have some widgets that are money at least add other free ones. ### 2/5 — Love this app! Just can’t find where to unlock everything *2022-01-04* I love this app and want to see what more I can unlock by purchasing the premium service but can’t find where to purchase in-app purchases. Clicking the “unlock everything” button seems to be unresponsive. ### 2/5 — Custom Images for Date/Time Widgets *2021-04-17* I like the look of it, just wish I could put my own image in the background of the date/time. ### 1/5 — Free Version? *2020-10-15* I paid $1 for the App now it’s telling the “free version” is limited to two widgets and it’s asking me for another $1.99? So when is $1 free? If you want to charge $2.99 for your app fine but if people pay you can’t say it’s a “free” version when they have paid you for the app. It’s a great app and I would have happily paid $3 for it but this feels misleading by the developer. ### 3/5 — love it but waiting for more *2020-10-03* i LOVE the icn creator, its super easy to use and has tons of icons to choose from. the only thing i wish it included is an option to make the background a picture instead of just a color! ### 5/5 — Great app! *2020-10-01* Very robust and does everything you’d need to use the full potential of ios14’s widgets and customization. There’s even an icon creator in the app! No more shopping around gumroad for the exact color icons I want! ### 2/5 — Meh *2020-09-28* Customization is just ok. Nothing special. A lot of app icons, but not anything too diverse than what your native app icons are already. Not worth $.99 IMO ### 5/5 — Such a cool app . . . The ultimate in customization!?!! *2020-09-28* So many different options to choose. Let’s you take your widgets to the next level; customize them to make them uniquely your own!?!! This is a total game changer for iPhone users 💯 ### 5/5 — I love this app *2020-09-27* So many icons to choose from and the customization options for widgets let me create a super unique Home Screen. ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2020-09-24* Utterly garbage app.You can only create 3 widgets?.A photo widget,a block of colour and the date one,really? ## Frequently asked questions about Widgetly ### What can I customize with Widgetly?
