User Reviews

Elixir 2 - Widgets has been well-loved for its customization and widget management features over many years. However, recent updates have introduced significant problems, including widget failures to refresh, crashes, and reduced functionality due to platform restrictions. Users report issues launching apps from widgets and increased background battery usage. While it remains a powerful and flexible tool, these widespread bugs and compatibility issues have led many to seek alternatives or revert to older versions. The developer has not yet addressed these concerns fully, impacting the app's current usability.

Recent reviews
Cannot be used on Android 10 and on previous android versions Google won't allow some other apps to update if this one is installed. With recent updates, it's difficult not to get "Problem Loading Widget" errors. Some once useful functions have been removed as well. The screen orientation toggle causes app to crash now. Statusbar widget does not work anymore. This used to be great app has to be retired. Have had to use Power Toggles app instead.

Just updated it again, still doesn't work, it won't let me even make any widgets. Please put the old version back up until you have fixed the problem. I have found another widget app and will be forced to delete this app if it's not fixed.
