## Review summary

Users generally like that Quotes Widget is ad-free, free, and lets them load their own quotes onto a home-screen widget with a simple interface. JSON import helps add quotes. However, recurring issues include font not applying in the widget, occasional display/update bugs (sometimes tied to lock-screen usage), and mixed perceptions about ongoing support and UI intuitiveness.

### Pros

- Ad-free and completely free to use (no ads or paid features).
- Allows you to load your own quotes and display them on a home-screen widget.
- Simple, minimal interface that’s easy to use.
- Supports JSON import to add quotes (fast setup).
- Widget is lightweight and looks good on the home screen.

### Cons

- Font changes do not apply to the widget; font selection is ignored in the widget.
- Occasional display/refresh bugs where quotes disappear or the widget stops updating (sometimes related to lock screen usage).
- Questionable ongoing support/maintenance for the app.
- UI can be non-intuitive or hard to navigate.
