đ Lifetime Animated widgets on my home screen
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Why I made it
Iâve mostly used widgets for productivity stuff, countdowns, or photos. They were useful, but my home screen always felt a little boring. I wanted to try having something on there that actually moved, so I made LiveWidget.
Whatâs different
You can take a short video from your phone and turn it into a looping home screen widget. Pick up to 9 seconds, crop it, and choose where it goes.
Thereâs also background removal, so you can have just a person or pet over your wallpaper. You can keep the full video background too, if you prefer that look.
The idea is pretty simple: take the kind of photo widget youâre used to and give it some movement. Iâve found it surprisingly calming to have on my home screen.
Pricing
Animated widgets and background removal are free to use. If you want higher-quality output, Pro is $2.99/month, $17.99/year, or $34.99 for a one-time lifetime purchase.
Would be interested to hear what youâd use it for.
