WidgetPod - Music Widget

it glitches too much

I recently bought something in this app to be able to add it to my home screen. It was fine up until today where it won’t show the widget and is just a black screen. I hope either this gets resolved or I get my money back.

i just bought the pro version, but the widget doesnt update when my song finishes and goes onto another one. it just stays at the previous song and i dont know how to change it

It’s definitely not perfect but it’s the best Apple Music widget that I’ve tried. I just wanted to be able to skip, repeat and play/pause without having to open Apple Music. Great app for that price and the extra flicks personally doesn’t bother me but could annoy some people. Hopefully it’ll keep getting better!

Only purchased for the refresh feature which doesn’t function even with tap to refresh. Would love to hear from the developer about any incoming fixes to rectify this or issue a refund.

Downloaded this app as I think the concept is great and visually it looks appealing with a good range of customisation, BUT… Unfortunately there are a range of small and significant gestures that don’t work - the main one being no matter what I did, I couldn’t get the widget to update to display what I was actually playing at any given moment. I’m no expert, and so I fully accept that there may have been an element of user error - however I’m also not an idiot so if I can’t get a paid app functioning relatively easily then it is as much an issue with the app as it is with the user. Other minor irritations (aside from the fact I couldn’t find out it didn’t work without the in-app purchase, since the ‘try before you buy’ lets you play with the customisation but not actually display the widget) are that you have the option to change the action when you tap the widget, however whatever you set it to it still seems to just open the app. I’ve given two stars as, if it works, the idea is great - but for now I’m afraid I wouldn’t recommend.

Not always up to date with the music I’m listening to. Some times title changes but album stays same.

Great concept…if only it worked all the time. Most of the time it does not update the music and is often still the album artwork from songs played before. I do love the idea of this though by far better looking than default widgets produced by Apple or Spotify. If only it worked all the time. It’s become pointless to use it. Please focus on fixing this.

When I press the play button on the widget, the widget jumps across the screen - I paid for this crap - what a bunch of amateurs.

It was really good! but now it stopped working, and it’s stuck showing a song from a day ago :(
