1. When you find the element you want to put on your home screen, tap the plus sign and go to town configuring text colors, widget alignment, and more to make it look just right.
2. Simply browse to a website, pick a column of text, blurb, image or element and enjoy this information right on your home screen!
3. Use it for local papers, web comics, site statistics, analytics, account information, forums, threads, inbox status, weather maps, stocks, pics of the day and even Facebook pages!
4. Any widget created through Meta can be customized and automatically updated, or updated on user interaction. ★ Configure widgets (background, alignment, etc.
5. To get started, add a Meta Widget to your home screen and navigate to the site you want to widgetize.
6. This method of creating widgets will not always work for every site and element.
7. It'll surround that element in an orange box, after which you can move the selection tool around with the arrows at the bottom of the screen.
8. Almost any simple element can be parsed out of a website - images, lists of similar articles, feeds or features.
9. Meta is a unique app that can clip web content into dynamic, interactive widgets.
10. Then, when you get to the page you want, check the box in the lower left corner and tap somewhere on the page.
11. But it should work for many with the proper CSS corrections.
1. No and never support or bugfix.Great app, but ... After I configure my webpage, the widget shows up, but after as little as one minute it will stop responding forever: no matter what actions are configured for tap, no update nor open widget works.
2. But i can tap the widget and hit update twice a day, no problem.This apps is truly useful, as it is more optimized than most web widgets (due to it's limitations, that's true, but that's also a strong point.) It really understands what parts of the websitezis imporant to the user.
3. So sad, because i love this app for checking lake level and status of bike trails.Recent update has broken this app, emailed the support address last week but no response.
4. No widgets now display, it would be very easy to roll back to a prev working version but the dev's appear to ignore the many bad reviews and leave the app broken, why? Great pity as this used to be a useful app.
5. Choosing the page and the page element to display was a snap, and a little experimentation with the regex formatter allowed me to cut extraneous text from the retrieved info.
6. Though, It would have been cool to be able to make a refreshing list of images...In "pick mode" for the reason unknown it reloads the page the very different way, without what you mean completely.
7. Please update, I would love to have this on my new phone.This app really makes life easier with great customization.
8. When I finally did get the info I wanted to display, the widget continuously freezes up.
9. I have a Note 10 Plus now and it doesn't allow me to go through the steps to add a widget.
10. Just a suggestion that when we select the line it displays 'Use All as a list' and other similar lines.
11. It keeps signing me out and once signed in, it doesn't allow me to click and the arrows for movement are missing.
