What's the point by anonym Of an app that's supposed to make something simple and instead I have to fiddle with it to gain picture quality and center it. This app is horrible. 1/5
Total Crap by anonym Images of great quality look grainy as hell and if that were not enough, it skews the proportions too. Totally worthless junk. Uninstall. 1/5
Awesome by anonym Just what I needed. For those having problem with poor image after resizing ,I use go launcher and there was no lost in image quality. 5/5
Freezes by anonym Great concept, but it needs work. The widget freezes if you try to add a second widget (including on separate screen) and if you try to remove the widget in order to re-add if you want to change the picture. 2/5
by anonym Worked 1 out of 8-10 tries, the way you crop the picture is never how it ends up in the frame, and locked my home screen after every failed try. 1/5
uninstalling by anonym I needed one to use for a full page frame (or close) caz the android photo frame-some red headed family pops up sometime. But this one my pic turns out blurred. 2/5
Cropping? by anonym The select picture dialog has a crop step, which is good. But the image displayed is very low quality and not cropped correctly. 2/5
Its good..but... by anonym I really wish it had a 2x2 option. I like to place my apps around a center photo... Not that the developer would see this, but if you happen to. A 2x2 option would make me love you forever. 4/5
Bummed. by anonym Was excited to see this was available until I tried it. All pics are blurry. Back to the drawing board I guess. 1/5
Blurry by anonym For some reason the pictures come out blurry. Would not recommend. 1/5
4x4 not working by anonym When trying to use it I liked the other sizes for decorating the parts of my menu but I am using a Acer Iconia tab 501 and the 4x4 frame keeps coming up as 3x3 so I can not rate it to hi seeing as you did not leave a warning or tested it you're self. But just to warn the next person in case it does it to them on the same device or another if it is not contained to just the tablet I am using. 2/5
Doesn't work with EVO LTE JB by anonym It worked with ICS but now that the JB update came out, I haven't been able to get it to work. Did a full phone wipe and clean install but still no good. 2/5
Great! by anonym Exactly what I wanted and no permissions. Thank you! Also - those having issues with cropping - I think it is more to do with the quality of your pic and attempting to enlarge it beyond what you should. 5/5
Its great when it works (Galaxy Nexus) by anonym It rarely works, rarely. When I turn my phone off and on, this app always fails. When my phone stays on for a while, it randomly fails a lot. 1/5
Blurry by anonym Photos are blurry after cropping. Fix this and will be 5 stars as this is exactly what I want. 2/5
Doesn't work by anonym Tried putting pictures on blank pages it used to work on my old phone. Now with the S4 it doesn't work, VERY DISAPPOINTING!!! 1/5
Really pap by anonym Seriously this is awful. I'd be embarrassed to put my name to it. In fact I am embarrassed I installed it. Uninstalled immediately as it destroys the quality of every image. Yuk. 1/5
by anonym Doesnt work. Ive tried all the sizes and it doesnt work at all. Very disappointed. I was really looking forward to using this widget. 1/5
Bionic. by anonym Blurry on bionic. Would like. 2x2 frame. I expect to wait for support on newer devices on a free app. 5/5 stars if it gets both of those. 3/5
Great widget!! by anonym Minus one only for the croping problem. I got 5 frames in one of my homescreen (thanks to go launcher i am not limited to 4 sizes) can't wait for the update!! Thanks!! 4/5
by anonym The way u crop the pik is NEVER how it shows up. Not many sizes, but I can resize em however I want w. LauncherPro, so no biggie. Resolution sux too. 2/5
Absolutely ruins image quality... worthless. by anonym No matter what image I use even downloaded hd images they still come out looking like a pixelated 1mp shot. 1/5
Blurry photos, WTF??? by anonym Pointless widget. Photos are pixelated/blurry. Who wants to view their photos that way? Don't waste your time downloading this POS app. 1/5
It used to be the best choice for me, on my Droid II (with 2.2)... by anonym But not anymore, on my Droid III (with 2.3). Picture now look very blurry. I'll have to uninstall to free up space. Hope check back for improvements. 2/5
Very poor quality ? by anonym I love the fact that there is an app to look at just a simple photo on the home screen, but I hate that the photo(s) that I want to use are always too blurry & not HD like they should be. Please fix this issue for the Motorola Atrix 2. 1/5
Didn't want to believe other reviews... by anonym Horrible picture quality... Very blurry images! Would give 0 stats off it was an option. 1/5
Shame about the prep by anonym Great app idea but unfortunately it takes a lot of work to get the image right with right level of zoom, detail and quality. Please include advice about resolution and size of image required to make preparation quicker 1/5
by anonym Works nice. But, lacks important 4x1,4x2 sizes. Crop tool doesn't keep aspect ratio of selected picture frame. So hard to get what you want to show. 3/5
5 Stars when you update with a 5x5 frame. by anonym Samsung Galaxy Note Only slightly fills the screen. Will rate five stars when there is a 5x5 frame or preferrably frames are resizable. Best frame widget available but it is really hard to put the picture in it right. You need a preview of the actual thing and also allow users to pick and change frame size in the app and not in the widgets menu. One star would be unfair though. In general it is a good app but it cannot score high with my new phone. Four stars with Galaxy S I. 2/5
Ok by anonym Its okay... my phone camera has 8mp and the pictures look like it was taken with a 1mp camera. Poor quality. Wish there was more customization too. 3/5
Needs work by anonym Nice to have a simple frame widget without unnecessary frills, but is let down by its failure to handle aspect ratio properly. Unless you clip your photo to the exact aspect of the widget you're loading (and there's nothing to guide you) then the picture is distorted. Too much work, may come back later and see if this is fixed. 3/5
by anonym To the ppl giving bad review because not in app list, this is a WIDGET and wont be in app list. Would like smaller sizes to fit more pics to same scn 4/5
Needs work! by anonym The selected image is always very blurry. Once fixed, this app will be useful. But until then, I'm afraid it's close to useless! I would like to encourage the dev to continue towards a functional version though. Lastly, I'd like to thank the dev for the time spent on this. Hopefully we will see an updated version soon. 2/5
Nice by anonym I can finally make an entire screen a picture! Love it! No it doesn't have zooming issues. I call that a human error. It only does what you tell it to do. If you select the whole pic on a smaller frame it's obviously not going to give perfect results, use your brain people! 5/5
Great but... by anonym It's tricky to get the picture quality right on my Galaxy S. Have to use the 3x3 widget for everything and only use high quality images. I just resize the images using GO Launcher and the quality is great. A shame that it's this tough to figure out but it's lightweight and free so I'm happy. 4/5
Works but not ideal for tablets by anonym I will happily get the donated version if larger widget sizes were made as well as the ability to set the picture frames to a slide show of a folder or just selected images.. I'm a graphic artist so I want ti be able to show off my stuff on my homescreen 3/5
uninstalling by anonym sorry but i dont feel i should have to crop ANY of my images just to use this widget. if the WHOLE PICTURE (NOT JUST PART) cant JUST BE DISPLAYED WITHOUT CROPPING i dont want it. 1 star just because of cropping 1/5
No Pic after a while by anonym It works great the picture looks amazing n I like how the frame looks on my home screen. The only problem is that after a day or so there is an empty frame on my screen. The picture is gone n I have to delete that frame n do it over again. It gets annoying 1/5
Nice concept, doesn't work on Android 5 by anonym 02-05 13:52:21.676 E/Launcher(2510): Error: appWidgetId (EXTRA_APPWIDGET_ID) was not returned from the widget configuration activity. The photo chooser displays but then I'm taken back to the widget selection screen. 2/5
Force close and issues One X by anonym Had this for a long time and was great to find a frame that fit 3x2 scale. Problem is that for me it continuously force closes and increasingly causes crashes on my HTC. Uninstalled it now but will keep an eye out for updates and may give it another go in the future. 1/5
