You have an excellent product, next level would be a desktop version that you can do all your planning on and to sync to the phone app.

Another ace feature - thanks! Quick question. I don't see the "Night with no moon" info on the big widget. Any idea why?

As a new Pills user, I have found something like 7 widgets available on my HTC, many of which seem to have features which overlap. It is not obvious which are the old ones and which are the new ones, nor which would form the minimal necessary set. The "big" one and plans, maybe?

I have the latest operating system and photocells installed. I followed directions to add and got the sun widget but can't find any of the others. I searched my phone and get options like install chrome on my phone, get some sky scanner--nothing to do with photocells. I see the potential of this program but can never get started because it's just so complicated

I have an IOS and pressing the open area on the home screen does nothing, I have tried this many times now and still no joy? What is the current version of the IOS to get this update? I have 13.6.1, is this compatible?

I do not get the + button on either my iPhone or iPad, both of which have latest software. So how to enable widgets?

Doesn’t work unfortunately. iOS is up to date and I have a recent iPhone but pressing the home screen doesn’t allow widgets.

Hi, I installed the new widget yesterday but have had to uninstall it because it was draining my battery within a few hours. Usually my battery lasts around 30-40 hours (iPhone 11 Pro Plus), but it went from fully charged to 18% within 5 hours, with PhotoPills using 98% of it in the background. Anyone else has this problem?

Couldn't figure out how to get photopills widgets on the screen. I got ones I don't want.

I have an LG Stylo 6. I can install the widget with no problem, but I cannot edit it. So, for example, when I install the widget, it asks what location I want. Once I enter that, it cannot be changed within the widget (at least I cannot find a way to do that!). This makes the widget essentially useless to me. Has anyone found a way to edit the widget on an LG phone?

I prefer the written word, not video! It is no big deal to write the settings and not to speak!

I respectfully request you provide an announcer for Photo Pills who speaks without the confusing and difficult to follow delivery. I mean no bias but cannot process what he says when he says it.
