For instance I have a music widget and the current track I’m playing won’t apply will 5 mins later. During edit in the widget edit settings I was sure to apply “auto refresh” but it’s just simple delayed. Have to click into edit widget for it to update ### 3/5 — Great concept, bad execution *2026-08-11, version 26.1.1* So unnecessarily complicated to try and navigate ### 2/5 — It’s good but… *2026-08-08, version 26.1.1* It’s good but you can only do multiple widgets if you have a subscription and that’s stupid for a widget app and its almost as stupid as having to pay a subscription for a wallpaper ### 3/5 — Amazing but… *2026-08-01, version 26.1.1* Like I said amazing but I wish that you could make it possible to have more than one depending one what kind it is. ### 2/5 — Cannot customize *2026-07-16, version 26.1.1* The widgets look great but cannot customize the apps you want to replace the ones that come loaded into it. Asked for refund within 10 min…let’s see if I get it ### 2/5 — Issues with apple watch ultra 3 *2026-07-05, version 26.1.1* Well this works great on my old apple watch se, but i have got a new watch and it has issues with processing health data. Please adjust so i can adjust my review plz ### 4/5 — Dynamic island *2026-06-06, version 26.1.1* For some reason when I put it on it doesn’t work when I get out of the app it only works on the lock screen. when I hold the dynamic island whatever it’s called, it shows blank back and both else but I can still get in the app by tapping on it, otherwise this is an amazing app ### 2/5 — Explore section *2026-05-01, version 26.1.1* Why is the explore section blank I have deleted the app and added it several times but the explore section in the app for me is always blank. How can the app be reset in order for me to see the widgets? Please advise. I have iPhone 15 pro max with the latest version update ### 1/5 — Interface horrível *2026-05-01* Estou apanhando deste app há algumas semanas e não consegui criar nada a partir dos demos. A interface é ridícula, com mensagens sem sentido e nada intuitivo. ### 4/5 — Great functionality, but the time? *2026-04-30, version 26.1.1* I love this app, really opens up customisation for ios screens, but it’s let down by the lagging time display. This really needs to be fixed. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — app sucks *2026-08-22, version 26.1.1* you have to pay after uploading ONE widget. don’t waste your time. ### 1/5 — waste of time *2026-08-22, version 26.1.1* u gotta pay like 8 bucks just to use it ### 1/5 — Can only have one active widget? *2026-08-04, version 26.1.1* I feel like having only one active widget available is insane. I know you guys need people to get pro for the money, but honestly only one widget is just absurd. Maybe 3 at minimum. And you could just put ads on the site or make people watch one to unlock a widget. ### 1/5 — Waste of time *2026-08-04, version 26.1.1* Genuinely the worst widget app I’ve ever used you have to pay to unlock more widgets and to get any other nice looking widgets is paying for it, this app is terrible. And is so confusing to find anything ### 1/5 — Terrible *2026-07-20, version 26.1.1* So counter intuitive and anything worth using costs you 8 dollars. Not worth the time or effort trying to figure out how to use this app. ### 1/5 — You made importing and using a widget so GD confusing *2026-06-17, version 26.1.1* Import, slots, assigning. Even with iOS restrictions using a premade widget is waaaaaay more confusing than it has to be. ### 1/5 — How do u add images *2026-06-09, version 26.1.1* Ik it says check help but im too lazy for that someone tell me how to add images cuz when i click the image thing it says “error image not found” when i didnt even get the option to add or edit the “image” ### 1/5 — Expensive. *2026-06-03, version 26.1.1* Installed it and after getting my head around the app it’s asking me for like $12 to add more than one widget. It’s not at all upfront and it has been a time waste. ### 1/5 — It sucks so bad *2026-06-01, version 26.1.1* Never download the app because it doesn’t work because I your kids are Berlin going into 4th grade it will tell you 10th grade stuff to edit the widgets ### 1/5 — Why will I pay for a widget app ? *2026-05-04, version 26.1.1* advertise something like it’s free tch. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Amazing free app *2026-08-09, version 26.1.1* Is actually free at let’s you customize your own widgets with many supported features such as pulling data from your weather app. It also lets you customize other people’s designs. ### 5/5 — Very nice but… *2026-07-29, version 26.1.1* Excellent app with amazing customization! I have one feature request that would make Widgy even better. Please consider adding a smooth sweeping analog second hand, similar to Apple’s Clock widget. Other widget apps such as TapeKit, Widget Flow, and Quike already support a smooth, real-time second hand that stays synchronized with the system clock. In Low Power Mode, it automatically switches to ticking behavior, just like Apple’s own Clock widget. This suggests that it is technically possible, and it would be fantastic to have the same capability in Widgy. Widgy is by far the most powerful widget customization app, and adding smooth real-time analog clock movement would make it the perfect choice for watch and clock enthusiasts. Thank you for your amazing work and continuous updates! ### 5/5 — Great *2026-07-29, version 26.1.1* Amazing application, 5 star! ### 5/5 — This app is ahead of its time *2026-07-22, version 26.1.1* This is the best widget app I’ve ever seen truly, no subscription and a one time purchase for what widgets you are looking for, I bought the Home Screen bundle and I love the customization, you are elite, thank you. SilkyShortz on yt ### 5/5 — Great app but.. *2026-07-19, version 26.1.1* This is an amazing app for customizing your phone even more than other widget apps allow you to, but it would be better if you could have more widgets in multiple slots ( 2 or 3) without having to pay to unlock the other slots or if not that please atleast make it so that you could watch ads to get multiple slots ### 5/5 — I'm dissapointed *2026-06-29, version 26.1.1* I put 5 stars to let people see this. It wasn't letting me add photos, i couldn't make the photos bigger, and it kicked me out almost every 3 minutes or so. I'm sure it's just because it's really advanced, but if you're not a very tech person like me, I don't reccomend it. ### 5/5 — very interesting *2026-06-02, version 26.1.1* This app is as said, simply incredible. I never leave reviews for apps but for this I felt necessary. The ui and tools provided are extremely intuitive to use, it truly is like photoshop for widgets. If you don't want to make your own widgets, there is a very well developed community in the explore tab on the app as well as on the Reddit page where thousands of talented designers can submit their designs for you to use in your set up. Not to mention that the developer is extremely accessible with in the Reddit page, and he truly listens to his community and implements features that the community wants. After messing around with the free version when I first got Widgy, I decided it was fully worth the money to buy the full version just to support the developer alone. This app is incredible and if you are debating honestly just do it. The amount of joy I've gotten out of just a widget app alone, creating and submitting my widgets to the community is outstanding, easily one of my favorite apps I've ever gotten. ### 5/5 — Awesome! *2026-05-26* Endless possibilities!! ### 5/5 — Fantastic *2026-05-20, version 26.1.1* It’s one of a kind. I highly recommend it. ### 5/5 — Muito bom! *2026-05-15* Espero que continue assim 👏🏻 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
