    Home++ doesn't like widgets???

    Just wanted to see if anyone else has had this problem. I tried several times to use the Home++. Each time I do it works fine at first but then any widgets I have on my screens stop working. In fact the last time I tried it got to the point that I could not get any response when I long pressed any empty spot on my screens either. Got tired of it and went back to stock home. Anyone have similar results with Home++???

    This is a common problem listed in the official home++ forum. Be sure you're only using your Widgets on one home app at a time. Ie, delete them from your stock home screen before trying to use home++. That is generally the problem.

    When in home++, click menu>preferences>issues group to check out the official forum. Lots of help/answers there!

    I haven't had A LOT of the issues that other people complain of, but...

    If it's bad enough for you to not want to use the app, check out the official forum and see what others have figured out to solve the problem.

    As well, the dev is ACTIVE in the forum and offers advice that others can't give!

    I had a similar problem, when I first installed Home++. None of my existing widgets would update and if I pressed them, they would actually DO their task (i.e. - turning on WiFi) but the icon never changed. I rebooted the phone and everything was fine. I haven't had a lick of problems since. I love Home++

    Only issue I have is that sometimes Weatherbug (elite) won't start after a reboot. I am going to try the trick of removing it from the standard home and see if that solves it.

    Let us know! Plenty of people in the home++ forum have said it helps out!

    [And be sure to give it a chance. I know that I had some issues with widgets after going from home++, back to stock, back to home++ when I first came back, even though I removed the widgets from stock home, and they bugged out and wouldn't load for a little while, but they're worked like a charm ever since...]
