Comments on Simple Photo Widget for Android

★★★★★ Very simple and good, would be better if the app opening shortcut is the one that doesn't constantly change size like the widget settings shortcut. Cuz some sometimes it gets really squeezed and smol, and I kinda use it a lot

★★★★★ Overall, it's a pretty good app for widgets. It's easy to understand and isn't that much of a hassle to work with in my opinion. Though, I do have one problem with the app that keeps reoccurring. I've forgotten how to fix this, although I've done this before, but when my phone restarts, the images of the widgets don't load in anymore. The widgets are still on the screen and I can edit them, but the images don't load, even when I change the images or edit the widgets themselves. (help me pls 😭)

★★★★★ Nice widget. It displays pictures very clear. Only the cropping done in the source folder are not picked up in the widget. You need to move the pictures to a new folder in your gallery and then make that new folder your source folder again! Then the widget picks up the new cropped sizes of the photo's.

★★☆☆☆ Used to work well, and I used to have 4 or 5 widgets but now none of them work and no matter what I change the image to it doesn't show up, it's just a clear box that shows up the settings and app when clicked on

★★☆☆☆ THE PICTURES DISAPPEAR AND IT NEVER CAME BACK I HAVE TO DO IT AGAIN AND THEN IT DISAPPEAR AGAIN I HATE THIS SO MUCH

★★☆☆☆ I'm BEGGING you please add some sort of app sorting or search bar when selecting an app to open from the widget, I've spent like 5 minutes looking for the app I want to open when I click the widget and I can't find it because they AREN'T in alphabetical order nor is there a way to search the name of what app you want. I thought I could finally replace my other photo widget app but this feature being so bare bones is a huge dealbreaker for me. Selected multiple pictures and it only shows one.
