[2012-08-21] Joshua: 4g toggle and flashlight issues Droid Razr, flashlight doesn't work!!! |
|
[2012-08-18] the 8/19/2012 Outdated Some basic features like GPS don't work anymore. Seems like this app has been abandoned by the developers, I would not buy this. |
|
[2012-08-15] Steven: Flashlight not fixed! Works fine every where else but the flashlight doesn't work with my Droid Razr. Says its on but its not. My phones flash works fine. Please address this issue. Thanks. |
|
[2012-08-14] Tom: Nice app but... Airplane mode toggle is rather iffy. It will take my ICS razr out of airplane mode but switch it back into aitplane mode. |
|
[2012-08-12] Peter: Why phone access? Tryed this and didn't like it. Refund was not available only 4 minutes after download. Not happy. Also why does this need to access phone calls - something you only find out after purchase. |
|
[2012-08-07] CJ: Works great, one request Overall, works great, though the battery status sometimes lags behind. Love the highly customizable widget. The only thing I'd like to add/fix is the on-off switch for 4G...the existing one didn't work for LTE. -Rezound with Android 4.0 (ICS) |
|
[2012-08-07] vexi: Wifi hotspot toggle not working on SGS3 Everything else is working as should but wifi hotspot toggle doesn't go off. You can start it but cannot tuen off.. |
|
[2012-08-06] Steven: Limited usefulness. I purchased this app with high hopes. Installed it on my rooted Razr Maxx running ICS. It only has limited usefulness--some of the buttons just take you to the settings page where you must make the change yourself. Others don't work with ICS. |
|
[2012-08-05] Stephen: Ok idea Can not turn off tethering |
|
[2012-08-03] Adam: 4g lte works great Update: works great with evo 4g lte. Evo 4g. Probs with 4g turning on when airplane mode button is used. When not installed this issue doesn't present itself. Everything else works. |
|
[2012-08-01] Bauz: Was great until recent android update. Can't do much anymore. |
|
[2012-07-31] Bob: You NEED Rooted Phone You need rooted phone for the Quick boot portion of this app. There is no indication in the description of Power Control Plus that Quick Boot NEEDS ROOT. The only place you find that out is when you try to run it after the developer takes your money. Yes, after installing this I found out Quick Boot can also be purchased as a separate app and the description there does say you need root. What else in Power Control Plus also needs root. Deceptive advertising. |
|
[2012-07-29] Landon: Unresponsive Developer I have sent several emails to the dev asking for Ice Cream Sandwich blue to be added to the list of default colors with no reply. I see now that there are widgets on the market that have this feature for free. |
|
[2012-07-23] the 7/25/2012 ICS Definitely not "100% compatible" with all ICS devices. On my gnex, the GPS, LTE, and "keep screen on while plugged in" toggles are broken. |
|
[2012-07-22] kiak430: Keeps crashing. Either jelly bean is causing the problem or the app is but every time I click the network toggle the app crashes and none of the toggles work after that. |
|
[2012-07-22] DGroup: Doesn't work on RAZR MAXX after ICS update 4x1 widget after ICS update on Motorola RAZR MAXX: some of the buttons change settings but don't change their notification status the edit button in the upper right doesn't work worked great before ICS was a 5-star app no question...but it doesn't work now |
|
[2012-07-21] Critic: Need more updates A vast majority of features this offers does not work on phones on 4.0 and up. Come on devs get with the times and get GPS and 4g toggling working on ICS and JB! |
|
[2012-07-14] Androidian Knight: Couple things, but near perfect.. Five huge stars for the pull down shade PC widget, nice to have on the Galaxy Nexus which has no quick access settings in the pull down. The brightness levels should have "auto" or "A" in the rotation, it also just turns off the screen when using quadruple toggle on GNex when you toggle through. Should be able to save profiles too. |
|
[2012-07-09] Rob: GPS Won't toggle on/off GPS HTC One X |
|
[2012-07-08] Patrick: Great widgets... Love the notification bar widgets, was disappointed when my Droid RAZR got ICS and they weren't there, so I'm glad there was a non-root, non-custom-rom option out there! Only disappointment is that the flashlight switch doesn't seem to work on my RAZR, the LED doesn't come on and it leaves a notification in my tray that "light is on, touch to turn off", and it doesn't go away until I do a restart. Other than that, great work. |
|
[2012-07-07] Shillo: Excellent Love this widget for having notification widget capability. |
|
[2012-07-07] Rick: One of my must have apps! This is one of the first apps that I downloaded when I got my first Android phone a year or so ago, and it is still one of my favorites. One of the things that I love the most about it is that it matches the default Power Control widget perfectly, so I can use it alongside the default app to provide additional functionality, and it looks like it's all the same app. Sweet! Some of my favorite features are the lock screen toggle, airplane mode toggle, data connection toggle, and battery shortcut. As with any app, there is room for improvement, but in my opinion, this is one of the best apps available. |
|
[2012-06-30] Paul: Notification widget is great feature Great customization makes this a must have app. Galaxy Nexus. |
|
[2012-06-30] Adam: gps toggle doesn't work I just upgraded to stock ice cream sandwich. I gained full notification bar functionality but now the gps toggle doesn't work at all. only 3 stars until that is fixed. |
|
[2012-06-29] Thomas Piccioli: Good interface for editing Overall it gets the job done with a simple interface to edit the widgets. It could use some more customization like custom indicator colors (there is only a predefined list), ability to change indicator size, ability to change background, etc. There are probably cheaper alternatives, but some I tried have terrible interfaces, so I'll stick with this for now. |
|
[2012-06-27] Eyecue Design: HTC Sensation Issue GPS does not seem to work (at all) on HTC Sensation with ICS...? It does not even bring up the (usual) selection option boxes. This needs fixing so it simply toggles it on/off like eveything else. |
|
[2012-06-26] Dave, Daffy, Dj, Hey You.: Ics tethering Galaxy s3 tethering button doesn't work. Not sure if phone or ICS. |
|
[2012-06-24] Mark: Flashlight won't turn off Can't turn flash off on Droid x with pre-gingerbread. Fix that and I'll change my rating. Big nuisance trying to turn it off manually. |
|
[2012-06-22] Bryton: Good attempt Implementation is nice, but the broken data and GPS toggles kill it for me. The persistent icon in the notification bar is annoying, but I understand that comes with the implementation. |
|
[2012-06-09] Devon: Great app, needs some attention This was one of the first apps I ever purchased from the market. It certainly more than holds its own against the new comers, but it needs some updates. Horizontal scrolling would be nice, but what I really want is the ability to save widget profiles so that I don't have to start from scratch every time I need to add a new widget. |
|
[2012-06-08] Christopher: Pretty nice... Needs GPS toggle support for ics |
|
[2012-06-07] Trevor: Decent Works ok. I think some of the glitches are just Google's doing. Nice tool. |
|
[2012-05-26] Drew: Superb Astute customization and serious functionality |
|
[2012-05-26] Daniel: Broken E4GT doesn't work. It says I don't have 4g when I try to turn on 4g. Emailed Dec, 4 weeks ago with no reply. May 26, six months and still no reply. And now BT does not work. Zero stars. |
|
[2012-05-23] Ziad: Htc one x Use to work fine on my htc sensation however not on my htc one x. Brightness, battery life, gps not working... |
|
[2012-05-23] Ian: No root, no work Only wanted this for the power off, reboot options but it requires root & another app from market...tad misleading in its description |
|
[2012-05-14] Luke Flegg: Horrendous More than half the widgets I want fail to work! It also crashes. I paid for this! No response from developer. HTC One X; ICS |
|
[2012-05-02] Paul: It's awesome! Flash light doesn't work on Droid RAZR... :( |
|
[2012-04-30] Jill: No ics support |
|
[2012-04-30] Ethan: ics bugs since updating nexus s to ics it doesn't display wifi or battery level correctly. It turns it on/off but doesn't display it correctly. please fix |
|
[2012-04-29] Jeremy: needs 4.0 theme update Nexus S 4g |
|
[2012-04-28] Johnny: Works as advertised! |
|
[2012-04-28] Adrian: Amazing! This is great! But PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE add a toggle to actually lock (turn off) the screen :) Also the battery indicator isn't always accurate. A tweak for the battery monitor would be appreciated. |
|
[2012-04-27] jariiik: Doesn't work anymore since the ICS update SGS 2 The cellular data switch on my Galaxy S 2 doesn't work anymore since the ICS update.. It's a Vodafone UK phone.. It crashes, and that's it.. Needs fixing.. Dropping it to 3 stars till it's fixed.. |
|
[2012-04-25] hbeenker: Used to be good But, now with the latest ICS update most shortcuts functions do not work anymore. I don't want a shortcut to a setting. I can do this by default... So, enjoyed it for a long time, but looking for an alternative. |
|
[2012-04-20] Trent: Nice upgrade Thanks for flashlight fix, droid x |
|
[2012-04-19] B.T.: Fix the GPS toggle... Please fix the GPS toggle for ICS 4.0.4 Galaxy Nexus. |
|
[2012-04-17] BruceK: not so great on galaxy nexus 4G and GPS don't work on galaxy nexus. |
|
[2012-04-12] bodr: It could be better but I love it anyway First of all: you can use as many widgets side by side as you want! :) Advantages: #1 I like the square theme when the dividers are also not shown. #2 I was glad when I saw I could set the brightness percentage for each condition individually, because I can save energy thanks to the quadruple brightness option. Disadvantages: #1 Switching OFF the airplane mode doesn't work at all. #2 Drop-down menu for a yes-or-no option is annoying, you should have used a switch button instead. |
|
[2012-04-09] penguin: Good. Works well. Will recommend to anyone. |
|
[2012-04-06] rrobe: Unstable with ICS, needs fixes APN rename to toggle mobile data stopped working since ICS on Nexus S. Occasionally stops responding. It was the best, needs to keep up.. |
|
[2012-04-03] Darius: Icon Driving me nuts Need to be able to remove notification bar icon !!!! |
|
[2012-04-01] Bryan: Still some issues The "square" theme is broken when using 1x2 and 1x3. The entire widget becomes transparent. Please fix |
|
[2012-03-28] herbicide: Not toggling GPS HTC sensation, ICS 4.0.3 |
|
[2012-03-28] Yuriy Mann: Good |
|
[2012-03-22] Paul: Very easy to set up with many options. Flashlight works great for me. |
|
[2012-03-22] Anonymous: Brings order to my homescreen Transparency and vertical widget set this apart. Really easy to set up too. Quality app. |
|
[2012-03-21] Nicksta: Has some major problems The cellular data doesn't work and it is unsupported no other viable option is available to control the data. Apart from that the other toggle switches are cool. I mainly wanted it for data control though. Since I can't get that working I'll be uninstalling it. |
|
[2012-03-16] Adam: GPS Not working The app works great on my Nexus One however on my Galaxy Nexus the GPS toggle does not seem to do anything. Also it would be great if the dev added an ICS color/theme to better match the os. Right now the closes one is the Cyanogen color. |
|
[2012-03-14] Phroghollow: Love it Even on ICS I find this fantastic |
|
[2012-03-10] Edward: Great but.... App is great except for the icons being dated and flashlight glitches on my droid x2 with gingerbread. |
|
[2012-03-07] Mike: Great app, but long overdue for some tlc from the dev for ICS... The app would benefit greatly from a refresh to the icons to better match the overall aesthetic redesign in ICS. Also a matching color for ICS proper and maybe a non transparent (ie; "normal colored") SQUARE theme overlay for the widget itself would be much appreciated. Maybe add the ability to theme? If you don't want to do it dev, how about releasing a API for your app so some other enterprising dev a can do it? Lastly, how about fixing the hotspot toggle on ICS so it turns it off as well? |
|
[2012-03-07] Robert: Droid 2-backup feature please Really needs a backup feature, I mainly use the taskbar widget and it is too easy to delete by accident-updates have deleted widgets in the past also |
|
[2012-03-03] Lurkily: Missing only one thing The only feature that isn't here, that I need from toggle widgets, is a timed silence. A one-touch timed silence widget with pre-configurable duration would be great. |
|
[2012-03-02] Randy: Love this. Would really like to see the ability to change themes, out even a default theme that looked more like audio manager pro. |
|
[2012-03-01] ALLEN: Love it but... Flashlight doesn't work on Razr Maxx. |
|
[2012-02-29] Matt: Awesome App Flash light LED not working on EPIC 4G w/CM9. But 4.0 on the Epic is out there a little. |
|
[2012-02-29] Phred: Flashlight busted Light won't turn off since the update. Otherwise, a great app. Droid X, CM 7.1 |
|
[2012-02-26] Jennifer: Great app! Ease of use and flexibility is great. Works perfectly, including flashlight. |
|
[2012-02-24] Dante: Samsung E4GT 4G toggle does not work on Samsung Epic 4G touch. Will increase rating when fixed. |
|
[2012-02-24] Evan: Needs fix Flashlight won't turn off after turning on from widget. never happened before until this version. Droid X |
|
[2012-02-23] xX bTn Xx: for some reason, it takes too long to assign a shortcut to an application... annoying lag :( |
|
[2012-02-22] Tyler: Good Get rid of the stupid notification icon and it gets moar stars. |
|
[2012-02-20] Chris: Perfect |
|
[2012-02-14] wesley: no pull down/notification toggle as promised. if you are buying this for the toggle from pull down option, your wasting your money. very deceiving. all that happens if you make a toggle that displays there is when you click on a toggle, it brings up an app that is essentially a toolbar. so deceiving. a great app otherwise, but due to that deception, im rating one star. |
|
[2012-02-12] Liz: ICS... Won't come out of airplane mode. Need working GPS and 4G LTE. Wifi and tether toggle not working? Can't tell what mode. |
|
[2012-02-11] Cosmin: Great Great piece of software! Lots of customisation and fully compatible with Galaxy Nexus! |
|
[2012-02-10] matt: 4g Need to make a true 4GLTE button. Sad |
|
[2012-02-10] Robert: Great app Have been using for over a year, awesome show, great job (Evo4g). |
|
[2012-02-10] Winston: Not bad...with some bugs Works well on GSM GN except for the Wifi tether. The widget will turn it on but not off. GPS doesn't work at all. Would be 5/5 if these bugs are fixed. |
|
[2012-02-07] Dan: Not working Galaxy Nexus Was so excited for this app I would have paid double but it isn't working on my Gnex. Keeps fc. Potential is there but. |
|
[2012-02-07] Michael: Needs Gnex support. Widgets aren't showing up in list and battery tab force closes.... |
|
[2012-02-07] Nathan: Misleading This does not toggle directly from the notification bar. It opens a seperate window that allows you to toggle the options. Waste of two bucks IMO. Can I have a refund? |
|
[2012-02-07] Dan: Doesn't work very well! I bought this on Droid-Life's recommendation. Wish I hadn't! I wanted it for the taskbar option, being led to believe that it was the drop down kind like found on some of the custom ROMs that are available. Instead it is in the notifications drop dow window. When trying to tur on / off features, it open the power strip on the home screen and there is a white bar at the bottom with 'delete' at the bottom. WTF is this thing. Fifteen minutes wasn't enough time to find out it doesn't work. Not only does GPS not work as stated, but neither does the flash. |
|
[2012-02-07] GuardianAli: Backup..? Would be 5 stars if it allowed you to save config's to load later. I have to reset up widget everytime I try a different ROM or launcher. |
|
[2012-02-07] Anna: Doesn't work on GN Force closes GN keeps restarting itself. Uninstall just wish I could get my money back. |
|
[2012-02-05] Don: Worked fine on my Nexus S. Keeps stopping on my Galaxy Nexus. Going to find something else. Too bad I supported this app by paying for it. |
|
[2012-02-01] Russ: Doesn't Work fully Still doesn't work in notification bar |
|
[2012-01-31] the 2/1/2012 Not 100% compatible... Doesn't work on Sony tablet s - notification bar widgetsare OK but the homescreen ones don't show up in the widgets menu. |
|
[2012-01-29] Morgan: Main App I have this on my home screen for I use it ALL the time! Best app I've ever used. Worth the $$$. |
|
[2012-01-29] Ji: Simple and clean Love it. Transparent background makes my home screen look clean and organized. Please fix the flashlight. It will not toggle off after turning on. |
|
[2012-01-29] Tummy: Galaxy Nexus = FAIL 4G Switch doesn't work for Samsung Galaxy Nexus. Otherwise the app is pretty slick and I liked the setup. Fix the LTE switch and I will purchase again / give 5 stars. |
|
[2012-01-29] Stuart: No Mobile Internet Switch Please add mobile internet switching to the options. Stuart. HTC Desire |
|
[2012-01-28] Ed: Flashlight is a mess. |
|
[2012-01-28] Andrew: Broken flash, for now. I love this widget, and I've been using it for a long time. I'm a little disappointed that the last update broke the flashlight, but that doesn't make this a bad tool. Please fix the flashlight, and keep up the good work. |
|
[2012-01-26] Bula Bone: Battery Crashes when battery is pushed... ICS Rezound |
|
[2012-01-26] Sām: Serious issues on ICS The widget is quite unstable on ICS. Pressing the battery button crashes the widget. Battery level needs more frequent updates as it is usually behind. Mobile data control is hit and miss and sometimes halts the widget. Also no options to change the order of buttons. Galaxy Nexus. |
|
[2011-06-15] Dono: This thing is badass. Only issue is the flashlight widget doesn't work on stock Droid X². USB tethering shortcut works great though. Glad I bought it! |
|
[2011-06-15] Quaddy: Great but you should be able to hide pencil icon and still click top right to edit. Otherwise how do you edit the widget again! |
|
[2011-06-14] Anonymous: I love this app. Love vertical widget. |
