App summary
This application, named "Toggle Status Widget", let the user create widgets including status and switch items.
This application supports three different widgets, Horizontal, Vertical and Grid widgets.
Note 1 : This is the version distributed on the Google Store. Some features have been disabled, but they are available in the "Premium" version.
For more information, go to the "About" window and press the "Additional Info" button.
Note 2 : Please take note that, in order to reduce battery consumption, the widget update service is disabled. If you see that widgets do not change the values and the status of their items anymore, please manually enable it inside Settings page. 5, 10 or 15 minutes should be considered as optimal values in order to reduce battery consumption.
Note 3 : starting from Android 6.0 (Marshmallow), all apps having to do with Wi-Fi, need to have the permission for Geolocation. This app has the permissions for Geolocation but only to update SSID/RSSI values. Geolocation service normally is disabled. The user needs to enable it manually inside Settings page. This app does not need GPS service, and does not collect any GPS data.
