WidgText started with a small frustration: widgets on iOS look great, but they rarely feel yours. I wanted the words that matter to me — a reminder, a favorite quote, a running joke — sitting on my Home Screen, styled the way I’d style them. So I built it, and today it’s live on the App Store. 🎉
What it does
You type anything, and WidgText turns it into a widget. From there it’s all about making it feel personal:
- A live-preview editor — type it, style it, see it instantly
- Fonts with bold and italic options, multi-color gradients, and border styles from clean solid to neon
- Quote Mode, which rotates through your own list of quotes or reminders automatically
- Independent widget slots, each with its own text, style, and schedule
- Widgets for the Home Screen and Lock Screen, so your words are there at a glance
Free to start, cheap to unlock
The free tier gives you a full widget slot with core styling. WidgText Pro — every font, every gradient and border style, every widget slot, unlimited quotes, and no ads — is a one-time $0.99 purchase. No subscription.
One more thing that matters to me: WidgText collects no data. Your words stay on your device, period.
Get WidgText on the App Store, or read more on the WidgText page. If something’s off or you have an idea, the support form comes straight to me.
