1) widget for a "long ping" still dosnt have a full 3rd line (screenshot attached) 
2) messages when ping too big disappears in a moment, without waiting for me to tap on it for example

Can you help me please?

1) It looks as if the widget got sized too small vertically - maybe HyperOS works a bit differently from stock Android in this regard. I'll look into what might be possible for me to do about this. But I don't have a Xiaomi device, so it might take a bit of time.

2) I'm not sure what you are saying. What messages are those?

Sorry for my english
1) On other widgets on my phone, there is the ability to scale them both horizontally and vertically. Maybe it can be done the same way on yours?
2) It was  "push notifications" that  I meant.

I think I can do something about the possibility of resizing the widget vertically; I'll need to experiment with it.

The notifications should not be displayed when they appear, but they should be in the menu at the top of the screen, like all other notifications. Are you saying that they do pop up, but vanish quickly, and are then not in the menu? that would be very unusual - notification behavior is standard Android. If HyperOS does something different with them, there's probably nothing the app can do about that.

yes((( flashing for 1-3 seconds and then goes away :'(

Thank you for fast reaction. Hope, the vertical scaling will be possible

I found a setting in the widget that I think prevented vertical resizing. I'll release a new version soon, probably tomorrow.

I have just sent an update that should fix the resizing issue to the Play Store. It should be available within the next day or so. I say "should" because I could not reproduce the issue on my devices.

Unfortunately it doesn't work :(. Now widget has manipulators for vertical resizing an area for it but it is not resizing vertically itself. 
Moreover, now widget dont show anything but a gray fone fill. Moreover on tap on it it dosent open its Properties window but a main app window ((((. Looks like it has broken (

I can't reproduce this. It at first looks like in your screenshot, but is then filled in when you finish its setup (meaning, deselect the widget). I'll add some text that is displayed until the first ping result is available.

I'm not sure how to address the issue of the text being cut off - maybe add an option that the display only takes up 2 lines instead of 3.

That's good to hear! Does that mean the issue with not all 3 lines being displayed fully no longer exists? I was going to look into what can be done about it, but if that's necessary ... :-)

Yes,  it displayed all 3 text lines after the vertical scaling. But really in this new state widget takes place of 3 screen positions (not 3x1 but 3x3 in my case) but it is not important for me
