Home Photo Widget vs My Widgets Usage & Stats
NOTE: If you find a bug, please click on the support link and send me a message with the details. This is a one man operation and I can't test on many devices...
Add the photos you want to your home screen as widgets:
1. Import the picture or pictures you want to show on the home screen as a widget to the app. You can add it/them to a folder (new or existing)
2. Create a widget, edit it and choose the photo you imported.
3. Select the photo in the app to edit its name and to choose wether you want the widget to show it or not (and its color). If the picture is wide or tall, be sure to set its center to make sure the important part is displayed on any sized widget.
You can import multiple phots and have multiple widgets with different pictures in all three sizes!
Unlock the app to also creat multi photo widgets that display each picture for your chosen amount of time or at specific times in the order you want. Also make mosaics from your pictures:
1. Choose the multi-widget tab
2. Press the + button to add a multi photo widget
3. Choose some pictures from the ones you already imported into the app
4. select the multi photo widget in the app to change its name, edit its order and select the amount of time for each photo
5. Create the widget as before and select if by its name when editing it.
6. Choose the type: Mosaic and Free Mosaic show multiple pictures in the widget. Be sure to edit the composition if you choose Free Mosaic to place the pictures, scale and rotate them to your liking.
You can also add a custom link to your photos so once pressed it will be opened. I've included an easy way to link to your own shortcuts by name.

Thanks to this application (and the other Widget apps from PacoLabs), you can now customize the Home screen and the Today view of your device, by adding custom widgets for some specific purposes.
From anywhere in your device, you'll have access to your own information and actions.
Add various widgets for your different needs.
You can, for instance, add a calendar that will display the current month and the busy days.
You can add your favorite photos of your beloved family and friends.
You can add your horoscope, a photo of the day (from the internet), some audio notes, some world clocks and more...
The application contains some free widgets like the Note widget allowing you to quickly view and edit some text notes and reminders and the Decision widget allowing you to randomly choose one item among several choices.
Each other widget type can be tried and can be unlocked separately.
You can also unlock all the current and future widget types at once, if you are a widget addict !
Those Widgets are compatible with the new iOS 14 Home Screen Widgets.
The application is really easy to use and is adapted to the fresh look of your device.
Dark mode of iOS13 is supported.
In Today view:
You can add as many widgets as you want and they will be displayed in up to 3 different lists. Those same lists will be available in the Today view and in the application (although it is possible, if you want, to hide some widgets in the Today view).
To avoid overloading the Today view, when too many widgets are displayed, an intuitive control will allow you to navigate from one widget to another.
Even if the main purpose of the app is to view the widgets in the Today view, it can also be very handy to view them directly in the application (a long press on a widget in the Today view will open it directly in the main application).
