Very good but flawed

I thought a NASA photo a day would be such a cool widget idea. It already exists! So awesome. I got the app today and the photo of the day is… nothing. Just a huge blank space with a description of a photo that was meant to be there? It’s my first day with the app so it’s mega disappointing off the bat. Maybe I’ll make a photo collection and use my iPhones native widget features instead 😅
