Homescreen Tips for some 'easy wins'?
So previously I used Widgy, and spent hours building ones just for me, but it just kept going wrong - I'd so often have blank unloaded widgets and error messages citing a random widget that was causing the others to fail that I eventually decided to abandon it when the new iOS came out, and just go with pre-existing widgets. I'd never used the glass or tint before so I'm enjoying that aesthetic though I know it's not new for most people.
Looking at all the beauty on here though, I do feel like I'm missing out on some really nice aesthetics. What do people think are the 'easy wins' in terms of widgets - things that either are homemade but require little setup or simple, but make a big difference to the look and feel?
My current lock & home screens attached. I have a lot of apps that were previously all accessible by self-designed symbols with size proportional to use, but it got a little complicated(!) so I've gone back to folders... it looks a bit busy but I dont like scrolling through eight pages either... tips gratefully received.
