Lock Launcher - Launch Apps

This is such a great app, I just got the iPhone 15, and it has really helped me get widgets for my dynamic island, and they are great!! And when your phone is on its Home Screen it has a little widget stack that matches your background, and it shows the apps you have pinned. I have been having my friends who have dynamic island how I got widgets their and I tell them about this app and how amazing it is. One default that I have to point out beside all the pros is that it only has certain app categories already chosen, and your not able to pin certain apps you have. I wish I could pin weather, and certain games, but because they are not in the category’s you can’t pin them. I hope that they have an update and get this fixed because then, I can’t think of anything bad. This app has greatly helped my adapt my phone, and keep it fresh, while still being fun. I deeply recommend this app for anyone who has a dynamic island.

This is the most unique dynamic Island application that actually adds a sense of practicality. It’s very fun and easy to use and I really like launching my favorite apps from the lock screen. The dynamic Island is a different story though I think it becomes pretty annoying because the dynamic Island unnecessarily stretches out at times even though I bought the pro version with island pure mode, so it shows a pure black pill but it’s enlarged and it triggers my OCD in a sense I wish there was a mode that would allow you to keep the original size of the dynamic Island, but still be able to long press it and show the Shortcuts that way it doesn’t interfere with some of the user interface like the signal bar or Wi-Fi status. I also think it showing the pill in the screenshots adds clutter and it would be best if it was hidden. My idea in order to combat this would be to Press the dynamic island and add some sort of gesture. That way you can screenshot from the dynamic island so that way when you screenshot it it can sync up with a time that you take the screenshot that way you can hide the pill.. Or simply take a screen shot as usual and it can hide for set amount of time (in seconds) then appear again. Thanks for reading!

It’d be cool if we could name the widgets uniquely in the app instead of Widget 1, Widget 2, etc etc. This would make picking them for Lock Screen much easier in case you forget which one is which. Also, can we get some more Lock Screen data indicators please? Battery percentage, upload speed, download speed etc all aren’t very useful on the lock screen where battery percentage is already shown and upload and download speeds aren’t really that much needed at all as most people don’t download files so big that they need to worry about having them on the Lock Screen nor is cpu usage or FOS for that matter, not for the lock screen dynamic island or the left and right areas for non iPhone 14 people.. something useful like maybe notification indicators, message indicator, email indicator etc would be much more useful. Maybe add a row of text option also to the dock area so you could have say one or two dock rows and a small row for text also instead of one or the other? Great potential indeed but these few additions or changes would make it even better.
