User reviews
App is perfect just add 5 minutes switch interval of photos please
FREE MORE SHAPES HAS AN FLIPPING INTERVAL MODE ENJOY GUYS, THIS IS TOO GOOD!!!
this app is the best fr
App is great I am using it to create widgets of my different qr codes, it will be perfect if widgets would be interactive when we touch the widget it will be maximized in a floating type of window. Please work on it if possible
I love this app!! It works very well and i can add any photo i want as a widget <3
really easy to use ! like seriously this is a real nice app no ads, no premium, and I love the 3 different shape options they give u to work with. I don't have a lot of complaints here, the lack of reviews was slightly off-putting at first but it does exactly what it says it does
