Still can't understand why iOS needs to label widgets with the app name. Awful.

Should be a toggle off for that. Ridiculous. One reason I miss jailbreak, just for the cosmetics and themes.

Widgy is one of my favorite apps, second only to Overcast.


I've downloaded widely but I honestly can't get y head around it. Seems way to complex. I even tried some of the existing widgets e.g. a step counter and it won't update.

Trying to create my own seems like a total nightmare.
Love the idea but can't get started...

You can have two rows, three rows, up to 9 icons per row…all on the lockscreen! It’s amazing.
