Design your own home screen widgets, including widgets with real detail: exact moon phase, ticket-stub countdowns, script clocks and habit trackers. Pick a look and a wallpaper, and Widgetly makes widgets that match, in about a minute. HOW IT WORKS 1. Pick a look: Old money, Dark academia, Coquette, Frutiger Aero, Cottagecore, Y2K, Celestial and more. 2. Choose a wallpaper for that look, or use your own photo. 3. Widgetly reads the colours of the wallpaper and finds the calm areas, so your widgets sit where the text stays easy to read. 4. Fine-tune it with three sliders: cozier or cleaner, calmer or louder, fewer or fuller. 5. Follow the guide to add the wallpaper and the widgets to your phone. Widgetly cannot place widgets or change your wallpaper for you, because iOS keeps that to you. The app guides you step by step and shows where each widget goes. MORE THAN 60 WIDGET DESIGNS • Time: clock and date widgets • Moments: countdown, days since and days together • Words: quote, note and sticky note widgets • Calendar: month, week and next event • Progress: year progress widgets • Track: habit tracker, to-do list, mood and tap counter • Sky: moon phases • Photos: photo frame, polaroid, collage and film strip • Lock Screen: widgets for the Lock Screen and StandBy Every widget comes in the sizes that fit your home screen. Change the font, the colours, the card style and the text, and add your own dates and photos. 14 LOOKS Old money, Dark academia, Coquette, Frutiger Aero, Clean minimal, Cottagecore, Y2K, Celestial, Clean girl, Night shift, Grunge goth, Preppy, Soft pastel and Pixel arcade. Each look has its own fonts, colours and wallpapers. SIMPLE AND PRIVATE No account needed. Your photos stay on your phone. Calendar access is asked only if you add a calendar widget. FREE AND PRO Free: Countdown, Quote and Text widgets, 4 looks and 1 saved setup. Widgetly Pro opens every widget, every look, photo widgets and more saved setups.
