Android Pro Widgets | AndroidPIT

This must have happened to a lot of people: you buy a new smartphone and, in an attempt to customize it, you start using a widget for each app. However, in a short time the screen of the smartphone becomes completely spontaneous, not to mention that the widgets end up looking like each other. That's why an app like Android Pro Widgets can be functional. Its main feature facilitates the customization of your widgets, making them more distinguishable from each other. Read our review today if you were interested in the app.

Functions & Usage

Device: Samsung Galaxy Note 2Android version: 4.1.1Root: NoMods: NoOnce you have installed Android Pro Widgets, you can start using it with the advantage of taking a look at the app tutorial. It contains explanations of how to add custom homescreen widgets. The tutorial is very enlightening, especially for those who are not used to the Android operating system. After the app introduction phase, you can select the widget to use. The app offers custom widgets for the following apps:

  • Calendar
  • Contacts
  • Bookmarks
  • posts
  • Facebook
  • Twitter
  • Daily / Timeline (Twitter and Facebook in a single feed)

A widget for Google Reader can also be downloaded.

Adding a home screen widget is really very easy. Then to configure the widget you will have an options menu. You can add some complementary functions, such as displaying only some specific contacts (for example, only contacts that have a phone number). The widgets options are fully customizable and their location makes it very easy to reach and therefore changed.

Widgets can be scrollable and also carry older posts or information. On Facebook, for example, you can read chats and old posts. It is undoubtedly a very useful function and it gives no problem, at least on Galaxy Note 2. Sometimes the functionality of the widget is reduced to the main screen. It shows a preview of the page (Facebook, for example) and where you can click and even leave a comment.

The widget that links Twitter and Facebook is very convenient for posting things on both platforms at the same time. Just click once on the icon of that widget to get a panormic view of its functionality.

Conclusion:Android Pro Widgets offers a collection of high quality widgets. These, in turn, not only offer the trivial installation options of traditional widgets, but also a number of customizable options. For an average user, such options will be more than sufficient. In short, we recommend using this app.

Screen & Controls

As it turns out, Android Pro Widgets also offers a tutorial for beginners, which really helps the user to better understand how the app works. All widgets have the initial APW to avoid any confusion with other widgets already in the smartphone. However, each widget must be manually configured at the time it is inserted into the homescreen and the customization menu does not open automatically. Let's say it's a frustrating aspect, even though some widgets, like the calendar, don't require any customization …

The design is very well done and the graphic is great, but unfortunately the widgets were not developed under the Holo design specifications. From the Play Store, you can download other graphic themes that of course are paid for.

Speed ​​& Stability

Android Pro Widgets works very well and there is nothing negative that should be mentioned in this regard.

Price / Performance Ratio

Android Pro Widgets is free, but is limited to offering basic features and functions. For those who want a fuller version, its price is 2.36 or $ 6.15. We are of the opinion that this price is totally suitable for the app, especially for its quality and multiplicity of functions.
