Comments on Minimalistic Text: Widgets for Android
★★★★★
I have had this app for two years, and I am completely satisfied. It is a professional widget app and I made four widgets with this app. If possible, make the animal emoji part more complete and add the scorpion because it is my birthday and I need it.
★★★★★
I used this app extensively a few years ago and am I looking forward to using it again. It certainly has a learning curve, but once you take the time to fumble through and get it down, you can honestly create some amazing widgets about ad diverse as your imagination. That being said, don't forget the learning curve because there are no real directions, but it's worth sticking out.
★★☆☆☆
Suspicious app, I have another app that functions just like this, the other app needed NO permissions at all whilst Minimalistic Test asked for three, including access to files, calendar (Basically what you're going to do the entire month), and. Location? After I granted them the app made me restart my device by not allowing me to delete the app and hold on other apps as well. Fun fact: The other app handles its job perfectly but only has one widget. Bloody unbelievable
★★☆☆☆
Why does a text app need my location and calendar?
★★☆☆☆
I purchased this app because I was having a hard time getting it set up and still had a hard time, and it never kept the time, I had to restart my phone constantly.
★★☆☆☆
Adding TTF fonts to a system font folder to use in global settings does not work. It used to work in the past. I have tried numerous different fonts with no luck. Contacted the developer with a detailed description and have received zero response yet, and it's been a couple of weeks. Seems like the developer does not care about their app or app users.
