---------- NO ACTIVE DEVELOPMENT ----------
Sorry, I am really busy and cannot maintain the app anymore. I am truley thankful for all the feedback I have received, but I wont be able to update the app any time soon.

---------- WEB WIDGET VERSION 2 AVAILABLE FOR TESTING ----------
The second version of Web Widget is a complete rework with focus on performance and ease of use. Most notably it now includes two different widgets, a scrollable one and a static one. The static should be preferably used as it offers great performance benefits. It is the ideal choice if you want to display full screen web pages (e.g. smart home controls, your own custom widget etc.). Toolbars have been completely removed as they take up resources and offer no real benefits. They have been replaced by a dialog allowing for the same kind of interactions without disturbing the look and feel of the home screen widget. No more unnecessary redraws! The widget now intelligently determines when it has to redraw the web page contents so you always see the current state of the site.

NOTE: Any widgets previously created will be deleted or stop working.

----- HOW CAN I JOIN TESTING? -----
Scroll down to the bottom of the Play store page. You should find a panel titled 'Become a beta tester' with a button you have to click to join the testing program.

----- HOW CAN I OPEN THE MENU DIALOG? -----
To open the widget's menu dialog, (slowly) double tap the widget. Another possibility (which seems to work more consistently) is to tap the widget with two fingers simultaneously.

----- WHERE IS FEATURE XYZ? -----
Many features that were previously available are not yet implemented. If you want to request any feature please let me know by leaving a review or sending me an email.

----- HELP, MY WIDGET FLICKERS! -----
This is caused by a too low minimum redraw delay. Although the widget intelligently determines when to redraw, you still have to tell it how fast it is allowed to redraw the web page. Open the settings and choose a higher value.

----- HELP, MY WIDGET CRASHES! -----
This is to be expected, as it is still an early preview. If a crash à la 'App has crashed' or 'App is not responding' occurs, I should be automatically receiving detailed crash information which help me fix the issue. Please stay patient and wait for a new update to be released, or alternatively write a constructive one-star review on the Play store.

---------- INFORMATION ABOUT CURRENT VERSION ----------

  • Firstly, download and install an Android emulator to your PC
