Awesome Nick! So glad I could help :) feel free to share your home screen with me over on Insta or Twitter @alexsperri. I'd love to see how it turned out!
@@eliasmohamad9682 I haven't even bothered to try, as a long time android user now using ios this is completely beyond Ridiculous all of that just to change the icon and move your home screen grid that’s a 1….2 on android like nothing
I agree, there’s literally a tweak that makes a true empty space widget without the hassle of changing the photo for a “transparent” widget we have rn.
Looks great but damn that’s a lot of work. And I’m not a fan of the “flex widget” under the app after it goes transparent. Not sure that can be taken off. BUT it is a step in the right direction. Thanks for sharing
So this video was posted 7 months ago. Are there any updates on how to get rid of the "flex widget" label on the "transparent" widgets? Is there a way to customize the apps without having to go to/through the shortcuts app every time you click on your new app covers? Seems too clunky for me right now.
When I tried to make the transparent widgets through yidget, it still left a small dash underneath the invisible widgets. Is there a way to eliminate them?
I bought the Flex widget app like you suggested and you should warn us that there is always Flex widget sign on my home screen and i can’t get rid of him!!!
anyone!! do you guys get a small black bar when creating a flexwidget the way Alex does? I've sat here for hours (literally) trying to crop it out, but with no luck..
I’m getting it too. It seems to be imparted upon export of the cropped image from yidget but I can’t figure it out for the life of me. Anyone find a fix?
@@Foodran it’s been 2 weeks but I found it. I don’t know if you still want it but here you go. Go to his channel and click on his 4th most viewed video. Scroll down to the comments and one of the top comments asks for the wallpaper and he gives the link.
This is dope really appreciate your time and efforts, so I have two issues first i don't know how to get the calendar app up there if you said how i didn't see it, and also the word flex widget is still on my home screen lol I would think for an app that you have to pay for they wouldn't do that,. Otherwise, this was really dope ty
I've bought my first Iphone and can you tell me why all icons have to be in a square? On android I used Nova launcher and Zwart and Whicon icon packs. Is there anything similar for ios15?
hi, thanks for everything step by step, on shortcuts its impossible to have notification? and can remove the notifications when i use shortcuts on the top? thanks !
No problem! Unfortunately you can’t get the badge notifications on the custom icons, BUT there is actually a way to get rid of that top notification that shows every time you open a shortcut! It’s too long to outline in the comments here, but I might do a video on it soon.
it'd be nice if youprovided a detailed icon list on your site, so we know what we're getting before buying - it says over 120 icons but your pictures only show 54 ... therefore ... no purchase
the wallpaper looks dope. I don't have that wallpaper on my wallpaper settings at all. i have an i phone 11. can someone send me a link of the wallpaper?
Hey bro had this issue as well, just make the widget with the app and name it and hold the shortcut down and push edit and you'll see the box with the arrow coming up out of it and push add to home screen and it'll let you rename and add your custom app picture.
for the app icons, after i apply the shortcuts and the new app comes up do i hide the original app from my home screen? because my new colored app and old one both stay
Realy like the style of it, but the function is not there.. every time i open the customed app i jump in to an other noe. Some guidelines to fix this had been nice :)
Admittedly, had to watch the video a few times to get the steps down but well worth it! -and thank you! My only downside to using Flex Widgets was it's "Flex Widgets" branding/text that shows at the bottom of every widget that you create using it's app- it violates "the code" us fellow Minimals have ;) Glad I came across your channel- (a new subscriber)
Hi I’ve got a question! After setting up the new shortcut, every time I open the app via this new shortcut a banner drops from the top of the screen saying “_______ | New Shortcut” with a check mark at the bottom, it’s annoying that it keeps popping up literally every time I open the app. Is there a way to get rid of this?
It works with color black, however I tried doing it with a different colored background, there seems to be a thin line just above the flex widget when I place it on the homescreen.
I tried something like this, but it isn’t for me. I don’t like the names onder the widget and the opening of the widgets when you tap on them. I sure do that by accident. Also, the widgets look weird when scrolling between multiple app pages (I only have one page, so no problem for me) and it is very apparent that the blank spaces are widgets if you watch the animation when opening the phone. But it looks cool when static.
It doesn't since iOS 14.3, now it just says on the top that used a shortcut not even as annoying as it used to before. Try a random shortcut and you will see what I mean.
Don't forget to share your home screens with me on Instagram or Twitter at @alexsperri
Can I Share my Setups top?
Absolutely!
Link to wallpaper?
Can you please suggest free widget apps?
how do you take off the word widgetsmith from under the widget

THIS IS REDICULOUS!! Maybe the most tedious and frustrating thing I’ve ever done. I swear Jailbreaking was easier…

Over a year after this video, I'm getting my first ever iphone since owning the very first android years ago and I needed this customization!!!
Looks great but damn that’s a lot of work. And I’m not a fan of the “flex widget” under the app after it goes transparent. Not sure that can be taken off. BUT it is a step in the right direction. Thanks for sharing
Is there a way to remove that „Flex Widgets“ title under the top widget?
yeah! How come he left that part out??? :/
unfortunately there is none as of now
I want to thank the algorithm for sending me here. You have another sub.
So glad to hear it Brandon!

Where can I get a light version of this wallpaper
All this work to put my icons on the bottom while on Android you just put your icons where you want, thanks apple!
Where can I get a wallpaper like yours
Alex could you make a video on how to add the shortcut on the today info screen when you are on the screen left of the Home Screen.
I would like to purchase your MINIMAL IPHONE ICON PACK. However, paypal payment does not work. Are there any other payment methods?
Where can I get that wallpaper. Its dope !
@@jesseaoki288 actually looks a lot like a default, but it’s not, 99% sure
@@_thalys It is a default wallpaper i just checked my phone :)
Why FlexiWidgets don’t show up when I try to add the widget?
When I tried to make the transparent widgets through yidget, it still left a small dash underneath the invisible widgets. Is there a way to eliminate them?
same here
No, as the dash essentially acts as the name of the app and thus widget. In the current IOS update, there is no way to remove names of widgets.
Buy Galaxy)))
Slowing playback speed to 75% definitely helps with comprehension of this video.

THANK YOU IT WORKED. I AM SO HAPPY.

Is there a way where u can take the flex widget name out of the widget?
will this work on ios 17 (on my new iphone 15)
Very helpful video but man why does iOS make it this hard to customize your phone?
What wallpaper are you using in this video?
Is it possible to remove where it says fix widgets under the time and date?
Looks good and all but when you press the icons it opens the shortcut app and than the app you wanted it to open..

will this be compatible with iOS 15?

At 2:08 when you say tap on the three dots it doesn’t shot it it only says done how do I change the icon picture
Hey bro had this issue as well, just make the widget with the app and name it and hold the shortcut down and push edit and you'll see the box with the arrow coming up out of it and push add to home screen and it'll let you rename and add your custom app picture.

I can’t get a blank screen shot of my backround when I swipe right I just get the apps by catagory. How do you creat a blank page with no apps?
hold down your screen or an app as if you were moving an app, then swipe right.
Please make a video showing how to undo all this if we ever get tired of it and want to revert back to the original look.
Just go to your settings and reset your Home Screen
when you click the app it dosen't open up the shortcuts redirect does it?
