Relly like the app, also buy pro version. But there is an option i thinh you guys need to put it in. This is blocked touch. I do not want to open app when I touch the widget and change the GIF. I just want to touch it may be because it's cute. Please consider 🙏🙏 or it will awesome if I can toggle other function instead open app

Best app for GIF widgets for sure. Works well and gives smooth animation. Sure does eat up a lot of battery life. About 4% of total battery use for me. Would like some optimization for that. Also, recent update pretty much broke the app.

Hello! I really love this app and the great quality widgets it produces. But I'm sad that the widgets keep glitching and doesn't show the gifs. It didn't use to be like this, so I hope it gets fixed soon.

Used to be really nice until numerous glitches and pop-ups saying "clear cache for GIF HOME WIDGET?" saying the app has a bug. I hope this gets fixed, was really good compared to other widget apps. Will 100% change my review once the app gets updated, please do because it's really good!

It was working so well for like a few minutes and then the GIF widgets started glitching like crazy. I didn't mind the battery consumption giving it wasn't actually doing that for me personally but the glitching is what makes me sadly uninstall this app. It's very sad Android users are unable to find any good GIF widget apps and many other apps in general. I hope to see in future years this changes, I hope this review helps.

Okay, okay. Like it's okay ig plays gifs and all, but it keeps crashing non-stop and notifies you about it which is super annoying. If you'd like to display gifs or photos. There are better apps like this out there.
