User Reviews

Many reviews flag reliability problems: the widget often doesn’t load or update, with blank screens and missing thumbnails. Data freshness and accuracy are inconsistent, and some users report privacy concerns with Google login. Updates and iOS compatibility appear lacking, and several reviews note that some features require payment, reducing value in the free tier. A minority find basic value in displaying recently uploaded videos, but overall reliability is the key issue.

Pros

Shows recently uploaded videos in the widget
Displays thumbnails in the widget
Basic functionality without requiring premium
Some users find it useful and plan to keep using until YouTube releases its own widget

Cons

Widget frequently fails to work: not connecting, blank screens, or not updating
Data and image reliability issues: thumbnails not loading, timestamp data shows inconsistencies, backend data gaps

Recent reviews

The widget never connects to my YouTube account. It just says that I need to click to log in and when I click, it says that I’m already logged in.

This app assumes you’re gonna login with your Google credentials. I don't even understand why you would have to login to track a channel subscriber account that doesn't seem accurate. That seems like he's just selling your information.
