User Reviews

Users praise the app for its simple setup and smooth home-screen photo widget, especially its ability to display many photos. However, the dominant feedback is negative about the business model: a very restricted free tier, costly subscriptions, and frequent upsell prompts. Some users also report reliability glitches. Overall, the widget works well for paying users but free users encounter friction and inconsistent performance.

Pros

Simple and easy to use
Smooth, reliable home-screen widget slideshow
Can display many photos in the widget
Core widget feature delivers a practical, straightforward experience

Cons

Free version is severely limited (only one collection) and you can't select specific photos without subscribing
Subscription pricing and model are viewed as expensive; free tier feels like a trial
Frequent upsell prompts and in-app prompts to subscribe
Reliability issues for some users (widget not appearing or setup problems)

Recent reviews

This app used to have unlimited photos and collections. Now the free version is limited to ONE collection. It’s also a subscription instead of a one time fee which is incredibly unnecessary. Lastly after creating your single free collection, the bottom of the main screen says “Free upgrade to Photobox+” and if you try to create another collection there is a popup that says “Claim your free Photobox+.” When clicked, both of these take you to a page to buy a subscription. The “free” Photobox+ is in fact just a 3 day trial.

On the free version they give you the bare minimum by l by allowing you to create one photo pack and doesn’t even allow you to choose a specific photo

you made an app for something as easy-to-get as widgets and you still just HAD to charge us for it! im not even gonna subscribe and cancel because i don't know if it's even worth it. other apps like widgetsmith do the exact same thing for FREE! NO CHARGE! no MONEY being paid to them by a subscription service for WIDGETS!!!!!!! remove the service in the next update or i swear on my life i will manifest beetles' backs to be glued to your underwear so that the legs are all still scuttling around on your butt. bye-nii!!!!!!!!! :3
