Comments on Transparent Widget for Android

★★★★★ Hosea GLOVER · Apr 3, 2026

Great App! Offers a clean home screen. Love the fact that it gives you a way to open apps without having them visible to everyone looking at your phone.

★★★★★ Mike · Dec 22, 2024

This was exactly what I was looking for. Great widget easy to use

★★★★★ Stephanie Blue · Nov 28, 2025

OMG! Just what I needed to replace my VPN's ugly opaque black widget I was forced to put on my home screen. Now I can enjoy my wallpaper AND change my VPN as needed, which I often do. App doesn't come with any instructions that I could find but is pretty easy to figure out. If you use widgets, try this. Works fine on my Galaxy S23FE. Now how do I support this developer?

I want to add my own widget like to match my home screen which is Frutiger aero (search it) and it won't let me

★☆☆☆☆ Caydence Bowers · Mar 9, 2026

This app is trash. I opened the app, and it selected a widget for me (1 × 1) that was just transparent, nothing else and couldn't add my own photo. I couldn't do anything or put anything, just a 1 × 1 widget that's transparent and nothing else. I expected an app where you could add the transparent photo you like and select the size you want, add it to your home screen and that's it but no. DO NOT GET THIS APP.

Description by Nightly Nexus Written by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.

Add resizable home screen widgets that do not obscure your wallpaper but can launch apps. This can be useful when your wallpaper itself implies clickable regions or you already know where to click but do not want to cover your wallpaper with app icons.
