## Review summary

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)
