The most useful app I own This is the most useful app I have on my Android device, and the first thing I install on any new phone that I get. It allows me to have my most useful apps on one screen instead of having the swipe two or three times for everything.

Totally changed the way I organize my homescreen. As recommended by the one of the YouTube reviews, I use the 1x1 widget for most things. 1x1 widget for one Direct Dial contact or Google Maps - people I may need to call on the road. Since Multicon removes the text under the icons you set up, the image is bigger and easier to see. 1x1 widget for a 2x2 setup (3x3 is too small in a 1x1 area) - used for turning on/off wifi/sound/etc - used for frequently used apps that are not needed when driving *For grouping many apps, I use the built-in Folder grouping (Galaxy S5). Many of my contacts do not have profile pictures, so I need the names. Also, groups expand/zoom on first click and select on second click ... avoiding clicking the wrong one. *Enhancement request would be to expand/zoom widgets that are 3x2 or greater ... or make it an option to zoom each widget. *I wish Android would allow toggles for Data and GPS. Since I usually have them off to save battery life, I find myself having to hit the confirmations on the road. If Android ever relaxes those limitations, I would want to set up one shortcut to toggle between WiFi and Data/GPS.

Cool Concept, But keeps breaking! When I am adding more than 13 icons, the changes to the widget do not show and break all my other widgets when I reboot phone.

Love this app but can't put any shortcuts on it with out it shutting down and closinging with out saving. Truly annoying and frustrating! 5 stars if it didn't do that.
★★☆☆☆
Couldn't use. Only options about/donate. Wouldn't donate unless sure I want it. Try charging for the app and be more transparent.
★★☆☆☆
Not working. There's no menu appearing after the suggested long press. Androit 5.1.1 Uninstalled.
