Very good app that I have been using for a long time! I love an aesthetic homescreen, and this app definitely is a huge help in making thay happen. It's quite simple to use, as the name suggests. My one complaint is that when you have multiple pictures and it is set to "flip page manually," the picture constantly resets to the first. It'd be better if it stayed on the one you chose to flip to. Other than that, great app! Edit: Rating lowered because that ONE COMPLAINT has become a huge annoyance

Really great app, probably the best app for making widgets. I would have given it 5 stars, but it won't let you choose what location the photos come from (cannot use backed up photos that are saved in cloud but not on device). Theoretically I believe this should be possible to do, and should be updated in order to do so (if it's not possible that's okay, still a really good app)

It does what it says on the tin, which is more than a lot of the app store can boast! The widget fits perfectly in the empty space below my calendar with a slideshow of friends and family, really brightens my day. Only complaint would be that images are slightly slow to appear when I swipe to that page of my home screen, and I wish it was possible to add a Gallery folder that updates automatically (though you can navigate to a folder and select all to manually update it)
