## Photo Album Widget Description
Bring the photos you love back to your Home Screen.

Photo Album Widget turns any album in Photos into a personal photo frame. Choose an album on your device or an iCloud Shared Album, add a widget, and see a different photo on the schedule you choose.

MAKE EACH WIDGET YOURS
• Add as many widgets as you like—each with its own album and settings
• Show photos oldest first, newest first, or in a random order
• Choose a refresh period from every 5 minutes to every 24 hours
• Apply filters, including Noir, and add decorative frames
• Show the date, location, or both alongside the photo
• Choose what a tap does: open the photo in the app, move to the next photo, or do nothing
• Use the Next Photo Shortcuts action to advance a widget without opening the app

ON YOUR MAC, TOO
The widget works on macOS as well, so your memories can live on your desktop.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No account. No sign-in. No ads. No tracking. Your photos stay in your photo library on your device.

Choose an album, make it yours, and let your photos come back into view.

## Photo Album Widget Reviews in United States

### *---- "Broken"
The widget just shows a white screen, never showing the photos in my album.
-- dgeauxscef, 2026-04-15

### ****- "Please add MacOS support"
This app is great on iPhone and iPad, but on my MacBook, the widget becomes solid gray when you open an app and the widgets become the background. I hope I make sense. It looks normal when the desktop itself is in focus, but as soon as you open an app in tbe foreground, the widget becomes completely grayed out. It’s probably because this app doesn’t have native MacOS support. Hopefully it is added eventually.
-- junhhuhbhu, 2025-10-27

### *---- "Good idea. Needs work"
Works almost fine… unfortunately you are unable to select which album you want to display on the widget. It has the option to do so, but it will not function so you are stuck with whatever it randomly selects
-- ozk12guy, 2024-11-26

### *---- "Doesn’t work"
Added the widget, selected an album, all was good. With widget is just a grey square on my screen.
-- Smitty4160, 2024-07-09

### *---- "So promising"
I was so excited to find this because it was exactly what I was looking for. I put all the pictures I wanted in an album but then the widget wouldn’t allow me to select an album. It just simply didn’t work for me. I can adjust all the other settings, tried restarting my phone, but it just doesn’t work. So I tried it on my iPad, but got the same issue. Wondering if there’s a conflict with a recent update? Hoping it will get fixed because the design is perfect and simple and again exactly what I was looking for
-- Digitlchic, 2024-02-19

### ****- "Pretty cool once it started working"
The Photo Album widget is not showing up on iOS 17. Unusable. 

EDIT: The widget randomly showed up several hours later. It pulls from my shared album exactly as I hoped!

The photo frame options are weird. And I wish you could click a photo and have it go directly to that photo in the Photos app, rather than in the widget app. But now I can have a shared album as a widget!
-- SchwartzReports, 2023-09-26

### ****- "No other widget does what this one does!"
I wanted a widget that would pull images from ALL of the photos on my phone without creating an album and display them randomly. I downloaded multiple widget apps, and this was the only one that had that capability! I wish it were possible to selection an option to see the displayed image amongst all of the photos in your album, but that doesn’t seem possible here, nor were any of the other widgets capable of that which seems a little odd to me, but glad this is able to do what it does.
-- Azz3879, 2022-07-14

### ***** "Exactly what I was looking for"
Now I don’t have to create separate albums! I was annoyed with all the other photo widgets out there that required making an album in their app. I wanted a widget that gets pics directly from albums in the Photos app, and this is perfect! I picked this one over another one because it has configurable refresh times! (fyi, “Efect” is misspelled, it should have two f’s, “Effect”! ☺️)
-- Jinjujoojoo, 2022-05-28

### ****- "Has promise but maybe not ready"
This app is simple, and does what I want. I added photos to create an album. That album can now be displayed in four different formats on my iPad desktop. Great. However, I do not see how to edit this album that is created. Perhaps I have to delete the app, reinstall, and start over. Also, it would be good if we could change the timing of photo changes from 15 minutes to a smaller number, like 5 minutes.
