Hi,

Is it possible for you to add a Widget so that we can drop the slideshow onto the home screen? 

I have a wall mounted tablet that has my home controls, and other indicators. It'd be great to have a widget that can display photos. I'm currently using the Animated Photo Widget + - but that only does local, on device photos. 

I've purchased PhotoCloud - but would happily pay to unlock a widget feature. 

Thanks for the great work Martin.

Hi,

Thank you for reaching out, and thank you so much for your kind support.

hmmm, if the widget api is simple enough then I can certainly try. There
could potentially be memory issues (I wonder how much memory will the
app receive when running as a widget), but we wouldn't know until we try
:) I can't give any estimate for the feature though...

Best regards,
Martin
