Very useful to me as it is light and runs well on an old but still functional Samsung Tab 10.1. - android 4.0.4 with no further official updates available. I decided to try and convert this for use mainly as a universal remote. But most smart home apps and IFTTT won't work on an OS of this vintage. So very glad I found "HTTP Widget" which proved a good work-around in these circumstances. It in effect enables the creation of bespoke virtual desktop remotes, each widget button sending the required url to IFTTT in the cloud, thus operating its linked app and the smart gadget which sits behind it. All of which I set up in advance on a more modern android device. Successfully giving the old tablet a new lease of life! Just one thing, it would be good to be able to back up the widget settings as I understand that I would have to recreate a lot of widgets if my set-up ever became corrupted.

Would be great if you could kindly include the instruction in order for "Parse Text" to work. What server response is it expecting?

Downloaded this app to avoid the pain of making my own Android widget app to turn my bedroom lights on/off for my IoT project. Works great so far!
★★☆☆☆
Opened the app to a blank "Edit Widget" page with no button or instructions to add a widget Figured out after a few minutes that you have to add a widget manually through your Android launcher. No way to specify raw text body for HTTP POST request; only allows key/value pairs. Uninstalled and found a different app that has an "Add" button for widgets and allows specifying a text body for POST requests.
