## Review summary

Review consensus: Widgetize generally works and shines for users who want many widgets, earning praise as a top iOS 14 widget app. However multiple reviewers report recurring reliability problems: the time and calendar often fail to update correctly, causing the widget to show the wrong date/time. Other glitches include widgets disappearing or failing to refresh. A handful of users also describe the app as hard to use or outdated, signaling a need for improved usability and ongoing stability. Overall, it delivers strong widget functionality but stability and UX issues limit its appeal.

### Pros

- Functional and supports adding a large number of widgets (unlimited).
- Strong positive reception; described as one of the best widget apps on iOS 14.
- Overall positive user sentiment with continued interest in using and improving the app.

### Cons

- Time/date display is inaccurate and does not update reliably.
- Persistent glitches/instability, including time/calendar issues and widgets disappearing.
- Usability concerns and outdated feel; some users find it hard to use.
