Review summary

Users like the app for its simplicity, light footprint, and ability to customize with multiple 1x1 widgets for different cities. However, reliability is a major problem: clocks often don’t auto-update or show the wrong time, and the app can crash or freeze. Other recurring complaints include difficulty adding/managing multiple locations, missing cities, and some monetization friction. Overall, the concept is strong and the UI is straightforward, but reliability and coverage gaps limit usefulness.

Pros

Simple, lightweight, and easy to use.
Highly customizable with resizable 1x1 widgets and multiple city/time displays.
Useful for crowded home screens with a straightforward setup.
Overall simple and functional design with good customization.

Cons

Time accuracy and auto-update problems: clocks can show incorrect time, freeze, or fail to refresh automatically.
Stability issues: app can crash or clocks stop refreshing.
Difficulty managing locations/widgets: adding multiple locations is awkward; limited widget sizes; navigation/exit issues from widget screen.
Missing cities/location coverage: some locations aren’t available (e.g., Alabama, Beijing) and search omits others.
Monetization and install friction: pay to unlock basic time display features and occasional forced reinstall/search issues.

2026-07-13	Fr*****	This worked great until recently. Now it won't update the time accurately. For a simple app, it's useless if it can't do that simple thing.
