Works as advertised! The cover screen is now useful. This beats the other option a LOT.

This app has come along way in the almost year that I've had this phone and the app it works great on my moto flip glad to have this app for all my cover screen needs honestly uploading my own GIF or picture is seamless I enjoyed watching the app change, and progress forward

. I purchased the $20 subscription because the free version showed great promise. Most of the features you would want to use are behind the pay wall. So I gladly paid. Unfortunately the many of useful features are extremely buggy. I hope its fixed the favorites doesn't work at all, so you have to just hide most apps. Notifications show a blank screen and don't work half the time when you tap on them. Many other features give a blank screen. Beta or not I paid a lot. I will update-if when fixed.

Make an option to turn off widgets, they keep blocking my screen with the "you can add over 118 widgets!" I just want to see my screen.

It did not even work for a whole day before only showing a black screen a couple of hours after I paid for a lifetime subscription. I want a refund this is bs.

In terms of giving you usability of the cover screen of flip 7, in terms of being able to open all apps such as WhatsApp, IG etc. and so on its amazing, however the biggest issue is, it disables the use of the "cover screen preview" camera option and instead shows the "hi" screen not camera preview, because of some sort of bug which is so frustrating!!! Please fix this bug ASAP 🙏
