Features & Capabilities

Photo Widget — The Best One lets you place photos on your home screen as widgets. Create as many widgets as you like, with either a single photo or a photo slideshow. Each widget can show its own photos or albums, and slideshows can automatically cycle at a configurable interval. The extension also works great with StandBy.

Import photos from your library or the file system, and customize what happens when you tap a widget—preview, open a URL, or run a Shortcuts action. The app supports three widget sizes and includes practical tips, such as giving widgets unique names to avoid identical photo order across widgets due to iOS widget limitations.

User Reviews

Reviews praise the app for being easy to use, free with no ads, and offering solid photo control and rotation on widgets. Standout positives include rotating through selected photos across devices via iCloud and privacy-friendly operation. Some users wish for bulk photo selection (favorites) and report occasional bugs or transfer issues when upgrading devices, but overall it remains a simple, reliable widget for displaying personal photos without clutter or accounts.

Pros

Very easy to use and intuitive, with simple widget rotation options.
No ads or subscriptions; free to use.
Great control over photos shown: you can choose exactly which photos (from Photos or Files) and display them in a rotation.
Rotates through photos on the widget with configurable timing.
Supports cross-device use via iCloud/shared albums (no separate account needed).
