@christianselig Thanks for the fixes!

Will the regular "Just Your Pal" widget as it was in 1.0 (with the cute backgrounds etc) be making a return?

@elisse Could you elaborate on "with the cute backgrounds" and what you're looking for there?
Show threadElisseSep 29, 2023
@christianselig Oh, sorry! In 1.0 I was able to set up the widget with just my pal plus a selection of forest, undersea etc or solid color backgrounds. In 2.0 the "Just Your Pal" widget seems to no longer give that option, the background is white or black and the pal seems to be set to Big Mode from 1.0 permanently. Will we ever get the options from 1.0 back?

@elisse @christianselig Also, “Just Your Pal” is only available as a small widget, not medium or large

@christianselig Not new to 2.0.4, but on my 12.9" iPad Pro’s lock screen, the widget is rendering as what looks like a clipped button.

When in lock screen customization, the widget details are "Unable to load".

@clonezone Can you try restarting? Widget stuff is sometimes just weird
Show threadElliot ShankSep 29, 2023
@christianselig No joy. Looks the same post reboot. And the “Unable to load” is still there, too.

@christianselig I deleted and readded it and it is fine, but I’m guessing that it’ll end up in that state again.
