User Reviews

PDF Widget Maker is praised for allowing users to place PDF files as widgets on their home screens with ease and minimal ads. Users appreciate the unique PDF cover scaling and the ability to open PDFs with their favorite apps. However, common issues include the inability to scroll PDFs within the widget, the limitation of adding only one PDF widget, lack of widget resizing, and the two-step process needed to open PDFs from the widget.

Pros

Allows displaying PDF files directly on the home screen as widgets
Easy to install and use with a simple interface
No ads or minimal, unobtrusive ads enhancing user experience
Supports opening PDFs with users' preferred PDF viewer apps
Unique PDF cover image scaling feature that looks better than default icons

Cons

Cannot scroll PDFs directly within the widget
Only one PDF widget can be added currently, multiple widgets not supported
Widgets cannot be resized to smaller sizes
Opening a PDF requires two steps—first tapping the widget, then selecting the app to open the PDF
