Review summary

ArtText Widget is appreciated for its simplicity, reliability, and basic free features that help users organize their home screens with custom text widgets. Many users praise its minimalistic design and stability, standing out from buggy competitors, with a reasonably priced pro subscription for extra features. However, common complaints include the inability to individually customize text and background colors, limited free font choices, occasional widget display issues on certain devices, and a somewhat unintuitive interface with minimal explanations. Users desire more advanced customization and functionality for a better experience.

Pros

Simple, easy to use, and minimalistic interface.
Most basic features are free and work well for organizing and labeling home screens.
Stable and reliable compared to many other text widget apps.
Offers customization with fonts and layouts (some require subscription).
No excessive ads and reasonably priced pro subscription.

Cons

No or limited options to change text color and background color separately; color customization is missing or insufficient.
Some features, like different fonts and advanced settings, require purchase or subscription.
Widgets sometimes fail to appear on screen after creation, possibly device-specific issue.
Lacks features such as opening custom apps from widgets and advanced text formatting options (e.g., individual word styling).
User interface is not fully intuitive and lacks descriptions for settings.

2025-01-20	Cr*****	PERFECT! Finally a simple text widget without the run around! At first I thought it wouldn't let me post without being subscribed, but it was because I selected a different font than my systems font which is a subscribed feature (if you want different font just change your systems font in your phone settings). Most features are free and you're not bombarded with ads. Plus the subscribed feature isn't insanely priced either. I might just buy to show support! Woot! Thanks!

2025-01-01	Ab*****	What a fantastic app. Simple, minimal, works as advertised. Very stable, unlike a lot of text widget apps on the Play Store which are buggy and feel half-baked. Purchased the pro version. Loving it. PS. Only thing I would love for the dev to look into is to be able to display Tasker variables on the widget. That would be chef's kiss.

2024-12-17	Ke*****	Works well for my use case. I'd give you 5 stars if all the settings also had numerical input options for % and and color settings (html hex), and I could independently select foreground and background colors.

2024-12-15	An*****	Didn't work on LG V60 ThinQ :( I installed the app and created some text widgets, when i click the save buton it says widget created on home screen, but when i go to homescreen there's nothing there. I tried adding more widgets & restarting the phone. Hope I'm missing something.
