Spacer

Read full description

Take full control of your iOS Lock Screen layout! Spacer lets you customise your Lock Screen like never before by adding minimal placeholder widgets. Whether you're looking to move your widgets to better fit your wallpaper, space them out more evenly, or simply keep your layout looking tidy – Spacer is for you. Unlock a whole new way to place your widgets, your way. iPad support coming soon! How it works: - Placeholders (or spacers) are widgets created by Spacer, and can be added just like any other widget on your device's Lock Screen. - They are completely transparent, leaving no visible trace, letting your wallpaper shine through and preserving the aesthetic of the widget row. - They come in two sizes, giving you greater flexibility over widget placement. (We recommend using square widgets for the best flexibility, as the rectangular ones automatically snap to the left due to system restrictions.) - Thanks to their lightweight build & max efficiency, they have minimal to no impact on battery life or performance. Advantages: - Design a clean, balanced aesthetic that suits your personal style. Use placeholders for better control over widget placement, so you can create the perfect look to complement your wallpaper. - Effortless to set up, with no ongoing maintenance required. Spacer provides step-by-step guidance tailored to your operating system version, should you need help. It's quick and simple.

LSST

Tired of Lock Screen widgets that show you your battery (which is already right there) or the weather (you just looked outside)? LSST is the app that dares to do what others didn't: let you display mildly useful text on your Lock Screen. Add a phone number, some information, whatever — in not one, but two distinct text slots (because we still can't just span the entire screen). Features: - Displays static text. - On your Lock Screen. - Nothing strange.
