Widgeridoo for Negative User Reviews
✓ Good appIt’s a great app and I’ve paid for pro. But the images are blurry when I upload them to the app.Version: 1.0.4
✓ I think it’s pretty good.It’s exactly what I wanted except when I try to make one of my pictures as a background, it brings the quality down a horrendous amount..Version: 1.0.9
✓ Setting sliders not functioningI tried to change the size of a font and the slider was unresponsive. I tried a variety of different fonts with no luck. Tried to send an email to the dev from within the app, but the send option wouldn't work. Appears that the app has issues with ios 15.0.2. Please fix soon!.Version: 4.0.0
✓ Trying to make a music widget but it’s awfulFirst off, the quality. The logo of the music icon (the note) is very pixelated. Even the background image I chose came out pixelated, and it’s very high def. Second, you can’t see the music (playlist icon, album, etc.). Third, there is no way to change the font color so it is distinct from the foreground color, which means the middle part is not legible. Fourth, there is no way to remove the music note entirely without just making it (and the font) transparent..Version: 1.3.1
✓ Poorly functioningEvery time I try to create a widget with the date on it, the app will immediately stop working properly and will only think that I’m trying to edit the block with the date on it, no matter what I do. If I try to edit another block, it will think I’m trying to edit the date block. If I’m trying to upload the widget, it will send me to the menu where I can edit the date block. Even if I just try to go back to another widget, I will think I’m trying to edit the date block. This is the fourth time I’ve deleted and reinstalled this app trying to get it to work, because I only have once chance for it to work per install, because I have to pay to add more widgets. Until I can figure this out, I wouldn't say that I recommend..Version: 1.0.6
✓ Needs workThis widget is so close to being really good, but...the calendar doesn’t reliably refresh—for instance, it still says today is Columbus Day a week after the holiday ended. Similar problems have happened before and I could only update it by uninstalling and reinstalling the app. Developer has acknowledged my problem and I hope he can fix it..Version: 1.2.1
✓ Nice and simpleAny widgets that are currently in use, however are not able to be edited without crashing the app, therefore I must remove the widget from Home Screen to modify the contents..Version: 1.0.5
✓ Widget stays black no matter whatApp actually costs £3.99 once downloaded. Wish I checked the widgets actually worked before paying that. I created my own, tried the stock ones but they still just display as block boxes!? Avoid, avoid, avoid!!.Version: 1.0.3
✓ Charge?I’ve purchased the pro features as soon as I downloaded the application, there was an update (recently) and I did the update but it was never shown that it will cost $3.99 US dollars.. very bad developer to do businesses with..Version: 1.2.3
✓ WorthlessI downloaded the app spent Time designing my widgets and couldn’t add them to my Home Screen. Tried everything so I gave in a paid. Spent $3.99 for no reason same nonsense. Can’t actually put the widgets you design into use!.Version: 1.0.7
✓ Does not work on macSo terrible and glitchy.Version: 1.5.0
✓ Its not that goodI can only have one wigdet for free, for the rest you have to pay.Version: 1.5.0
✓ You have got to be kidding!This may be the quintessential widget app but I’ll never know! Why? (You might ask). Because I downloaded the app with the dumb name. I try using this app... but I cannot do ANYTHING! They keep asking for money! How am I, or anyone else, suppose to try it out if money demands keep precluding the opportunity to test out the app. Not exactly being respectful of the consumer, are they? So, SAYONARA! I get to keep my money and look for something more creative and user friendly and you get to keep your app! I’ve got your number, so to speak: it’s all about money..Version: 1.0.6
✓ Decent app overall but there is a small problemHi, I have a problem with the app. As I read in another review you’re supposed to be able to edit the first widget (correct me if I’m wrong). Though when I tried to do so it said that I needed to buy the pro version to do so, at first I was able to edit it then later on it brought up the pro version message. So I’m confused if you took out that feature or the new update might’ve messed that up?.Version: 1.5.0
✓ Some improvements neededSo when I added the Widget, the picture I put on too was extremely blurry as well as having the text “click to edit” on top of it. I would give this 5 stars if it wouldn’t have made the quality look worse and no be covered by words :).Version: 1.0.3
✓ Feature don’t workWebsite feature doesn’t work.....Version: 1.4.0
✓ It not freeLooks good but you do need to pay for it.Version: 1.0.6
✓ Doesn’t restore purchaseI have been using widgeridoo since it came out on beta and it was a great app I paid for the 4.99 for the pro upgrade when it was in beta now that the app has fully come out it isn’t letting me restore my purchase..Version: 1.0.6
✓ Needs improvementsI like the idea of this app, but it lacks creativity. There needs to be more options for fonts, borders, etc. Also, when I actually go to use the widget I created, it blows up the size on my phone..Version: 1.3.3
✓ Awesome but buggyThis is the best and most powerful widget maker I have tested. But it keeps crashing when I’m building my widget. Mainly when I add a calendar or reminders blocks..Version: 1.5.0
✓ Excited for nothing paid for disappointmentThe app seems great - used the small 4block to include “macstories”, music and two other options however the top left block is the only one that is responsive to the assigned app / feed etc. I deleted - tried again and again and no matter what only one block works - I tap any of the four blocks and whatever is in the top right is what “works”.Version: 1.0.7
✓ Seriously? How do I apply it to my Home Screen?Do I have to pay? Say it in the first place.Version: 1.2.0
✓ Don’t BotherStupid app! Waste of time and money! Only 4 font choices. Can’t resize the time and date properly! This crap app is a clunky, junky mess! I’m going to request a refund and delete this thing! Also, this is another “widget” app that won’t let you hide its name when you load it on to your Home screen! I regret installing it on my phone!.Version: 1.0
✓ Expected moreI bought the pro feature and realized I still can’t retitle widgets, customizable features are a lot more limited than I would like..Version: 1.3.2
✓ Charged without consent!Charged for “Pro Update” without authorization. I contacted Apple to find out what “Pro Update” app was. They told me it was from this app. I never requested to be upgraded on this app. Even when I download the app it doesn’t show that I am “Pro.” **It must be possible because I was charged for the “update” when I never upgraded...so yes I contacted Apple. Even so, when downloading your app again AFTER being charged...the “upgrade status” did not even show in your app. I have no idea how you guys managed to charge my account either....Version: 1.0.8
✓ Great idea but flakyIt’s a lovely concept, but it’s just flaky. Try to add a new block to a widget, and it briefly shows the available options then exits back to the menu. Keeps telling me I can only have 4 widgets in the free version. Yes, I know. But I’ve only got one and I’m not trying to add a new one, I’m trying to edit an existing one. I’d pay for it, but the quality isn’t good enough for me to take the leap..Version: 3.3.0
✓ So Far...So OKMade a photo widget, been waiting to do this, but the photo appears blurry. It’s coming from Apple Photos where it looks fantastic, even when zoomed in, however the Widget version looks terrible. Really hope this gets corrected..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Fantastic App But Constantly CrashesThe app I have been waiting for as far as widgets go, but literally constantly crashes. I can’t even create a proper widget because it’s constantly crashing. The built in options so far are great and there is quite a bit that is customizable, but would love to see some more customization options, and some more widget options in the future..Version: 1.3.3
✓ Pro Version Doesn’t Work!I purchased pro version immediately. Big mistake. Would like refund. iPhone XS Max running 14.2. Can create medium widget with 3 pics from photos. Install blue box placeholder. Tap to edit while still wiggling. Get “choose widget” screen, which just spins for 10 mins, never letting me choose widget I created. Emailed developer, and appreciate the quick response but his instructions to “restart device” doesn’t work. Same problem. Other widget apps work flawlessly including with photos. How do I get refund?.Version: 1.4.0
✓ Good but could be betterLove the features but wish there was a few more so that I’d could customize the widgets more to my preference. Upgraded to pro but was a little disappointed because i wasn’t able to adjust my photo without being cut off😩.Version: 1.0.3
✓ Kinda unpracticalThe app is good but when you want like a steps widget you can’t change the background colour to black it’s just green so idk I bought pro and it still not letting me change it so kinda bad.Version: 1.5.0
✓ Keep glitching after updateKeep glitching after update.Version: 1.2.1
✓ Deceiving…It says no subscription, but there is a window that is open on the home page that promotes going pro. If you click on it, it leads you to the Upgrade page but no way to scroll down to any way to buy the Upgrade….Version: 4.0.0
✓ Needs a lot of workGreat start with customisation. But the app itself is very buggy and the UI needs a desperate remodelling.Version: 1.0.6
✓ Fix photo resolutionWhen trying to customise a widget with a photo, upon uploading it greatly reduces the photo resolution and makes it blurry. Please find a way to fix it..Version: 1.0.1
✓ Doesn’t sync between iphone and ipadI would rate it higher if it did, but having to recreate widgits for each device and it looks like having to pay pro twice makes this a no go for me..Version: 4.0.0
✓ BrokenWhen I open the app it crashes instantly. I’ve reset my phone and deleted and reinstalled the app but still doesn’t work..Version: 1.0
✓ Great IdeaToo buggy as yet..Version: 1.0.5
✓ Pretty good functionality but the blurry photos ruin it.As a Pro user, Widgeridoo is relatively straightforward to use. It’s simple and powerful in the effects you can achieve, but the current version displays high res, crisp images as blurry when imported into the widget. It’s pretty frustrating and I hope this issue is fixed in upcoming versions. —Update: Shoutout to the super responsive developer for consistently working to improve the app. Looking forward to crisper pictures. Thanks for responding!.Version: 1.0.6
✓ Good concept but needs a bunch of improvementsThe concept is amazing but needs more support the app is complicated when u add photos to blocks they show in very low resolution music should support Spotify but I understand if u cant a lot of crashes if u guy’s work on this it will be one hell of an app.Version: 1.0.3
✓ Can’t do anything without payingWhat the point of offering a free app when there is nothing you can do with it unless you pay first. May as well be up front and just charge. Complete waste of time..Version: 1.0.6
✓ Really buggyI love this app but when I try to type in a text box it kicks me out of the app and then When I go back to the widget I was working on it kicks me out and never lets me back in.Version: 1.0.4
✓ Great app butI will update this review as time goes on. This app has a lot of options and potential to be the best in the app store. I will list a few things. The customize options rules but with limited options so far. I will like to see a way I can add a image as a background that will do all the cells or individual cells as an option. Also the option to add the default weather or any weather app that has the widget option. I like how you can build with this also some options with the time styles and a option to add a battery that has some styles to, a background picture that can fill the with of all cells as one image like I mentioned before will be great. I paid full for the pro. I will wait a the developer adds more. Thank you..Version: 1.1.0
✓ I can’t do anythingI can’t add any to my screen.Version: 1.0.5
✓ Good potential but..I got this app because i just got ios 14 and want to hop on the train to customize my phone. It took me about half an hour to figure out my way around the app and when I tried adding an image in half of my widget, the image quality came out really poor even though the original image I tried to add in is crystal clear. It’s possible there’s some way to fix this, but I haven’t found it yet. Also don’t see a way to edit the image you’re trying to put in? Like to crop it. Overall this app has great potential but I think it could stand to be more user-friendly (like Widgetsmith) and have some bugs worked out..Version: 1.5.0
✓ Wants money right awayCan’t do anything without money . Couldn’t even test it.Version: 1.0.6
✓ Not freeLooks like it would be good but the free app won’t let you do anything! Any time you try to enter a widget, edit anything, it says to upgrade to pro. I appreciate a need to sell content and to upgrade for premium content, but to market this as free is incorrect - you can’t do anything with the free app..Version: 1.0
✓ Poorly optimisedIt crashed too many times while editing my widgets, and the UI is buggy. Running on iPhone X.Version: 1.3.0
✓ Confusing widgets that can't be edited 😕I appreciate the developer's response to my original review. Interestingly, the response says that only the first widget is available to users unless they buy the app. That's fine. However, the app on my iPad clearly states "select a widget in the list on the left". So, that's what I did and one reason I found it confusing. It says nothing about only having access to one widget. The app's usability might be better if it did two things: 1. Clearly separate free vs purchasable widgets. 2. Let users see the contents of purchasable widgets, but not change them. --- Original Review --- Confusing widgets that can't be edited 😕 Three examples: - The compact widget evidently has an area for a photo, possibly a contact photo. On my device, there's just an icon there. There's no way to set the photo, contact, or whatever it is. Instead, if I tap on it, the app asks me for money. - 3 of the widgets have what appear to be circular graphs with data in them. There's no way to tell what these graphs represent. If I tap on them to try to find out, the app asks me for money. - The calendar widget is picking calendar entries from Calendar's that I have access to, but that I don't use. If I try to find a way to set the calendars, the app asks me for money. This might be a good app, but I can't tell based on the widgets provided..Version: 1.1.0
