▌BASIC INFO:
Very simple minimalistic widget, which displays any text on your Android home screen. It allows multiple instances of the widget and has wide possibilities of settings. This version also includes Tasker / Locale plug-in, which becomes even more powerful tool than ever.

▌TASKER/LOCALE PLUG-IN:
In case you use Tasker/Locale application, I have included plug-in which displays "dynamic" text on your homescreen. Tasker application allows variable replacement, so that it becomes very powerful tool for you if you are familiar with this application.

▌USAGE:
1. in the TEXT WIDGET set up unique name in advance settings (name, which will be used for communication between widget and Tasker/Locale application)
2. in the Tasker/Locale application create task and include this plug-in. To set up the plug-in, set the same name as used in widget and add any content to be displayed on the Android homescreen.

▌FEEDBACK:
Should you have any questions related to this widget or integration with Tasker/Locale application, please do not hesitate to contact me at android@tampiss.com. Please, use rating for positive/negative feed-back about this application. Not for bugs - I will rather appreciate to receive them via email so that I can try to fix them.

    Great widget, 4 stars for now until vertical text start working, it's on the settings but always shows horizontal...

    Why are there more options in the non-donate version like having no background color? I like that option but it's not available in this version

    I would buy if the text alignment wasn't so funky. The first letter of each word is right at the very edge of the screen when using "align right"

    Minimalistic text does the same job plus much more and it's fully free, unlike this trial...

    Keeps FC whenever I try to mess with settings. Would be a great app if it worked though!

    Tap to run tasker option doesn't work. Tried creating a task that clears the contents and it doesn't work. Running manually its fine.
