So i've been using APW for ages, but i've grown tired of the sluggish widget and old-ish user interface (as well as a recent bug on my s4 that shows a blank page when opening tweets).
I've been looking for another app with a combined & scrollable facebook & twitter widget and have come up short. I have tried these:
Hootsuite: Looks really nice, but only seperate Facebook & Twitter widgets (Same widget, but i can only select either fb or twitter)
Seesmic: Just a 4x1 widget and seperate twitter & facebook.
Scope: No widgets at all.
Anyone got any other suggestions?
I am in the same situation and found Wizz Widget but even the Pro version (which I bought over Amazon) doesn't work reliable and the developer doesn't respond.
I would like to see another alternative.

I can't seem to find any good quality scrollable widgets. I realize most home screens do not support this, but it appears that Launcher Pro Beta does have the option to enable scrollable widgets now.
There are a few applications that I think would be VERY useful with scrollable widgets and wondering if anyone has run across these or any developers that would want to take on this project.
1. Calender application. A scrollable calender (Android Agenda Widget?) would be awesome.
2. An application dock that allows you to scroll through an application list.
Any ideas as to why these things have been developed or if people are working on them?
Email/SMS/Facebook/Twitter scrollable widgets would also be useful.
I'd like to know of one scrollable widget so I could test it out tbh
Pure Messenger widget supports scrolling.
Yeah I hope development picks up on this for sure. Pure messenger is pretty sick.... But it needs friends!
Agenda, contacts, google reader ap anyone?

did you try sliding the launcherpro "dock" to the side already? don't if that's what you want
I do like the new dock on the bottom and how you can add more shortcuts.
And like Trill said, a google RSS reader with a scrollable widget would be amazing. Or how about a slickdeals scrollable widget. Or sports scores scrollable widget. Soooo many options!
I suppose you could use Flyscreen for all of that... Although it seems to cause more delays unlocking the more widgets are loaded.
looking for a good cal widget. Love the htc sense one but im using launcher pro. so cant use it anymore, like the LP cal widget but a little big.

i posted this in your other thread too:
Pure Grid calendar widget
very customizable, size, tons of themes, and when you click it, it takes you too your google calender ect.. i use it.
its only like $2 in the market, make sure its the grid one, not just the one that says calender.
I was looking for one as well, dug through a few and finally settled on Agenda Widget.
Best one
the best one - for me is - jorte - i tryed many apps - http://androinica.com/2010/04/16/jorte-is-a-promising-android-calendar-replacement-app-reviews/
+1 for Pure Grid Calendar Widget
I am using LauncherPro Plus calendar widget, otherwise Android Agenda Widget is the best for me
I tried a few this past weekend, also looking for a good free one. i ended up settling on CalWdiget. Fairly customizable & seems pretty solid so far.
just my personal preference/opinion..
I suppose I'll vote for Android Agenda Widget, even though this whole thread shouldn't even be here...
Agenda Widget
Big fan of agenda widget, free, fast, simple and customizable.
Calendar Pad.
The weekview is, for me, great. There are also numerous widgets with it, including fullscreen ones, other sized ones and (the one I use) a single button widget (showing date) which will take you to your preferred view (weekview for me).
And it's free
I am looking for Agenda/Calender and Bookmark widgets like the ones on HTC Sense. I have tryed Launcher Pro Plus widgets but I don't want to use LP on my TF. I have also tryed Pure Grid Calendar widget w/Sense skin but it is buggy and isn't scrollable on my TF..The Calender n Bookmark widget on the TF are small and pathetic.
If anyone can recommend a good Agenda/Calender and Bookmark widget that is scrollable and works as smooth as the Sense or LP ones please let me know! Thanks
I'm quite a fan of touch calendar - the paid version has the widgets that you can set to display x number of upcoming/past weeks in a given widget size. It's not scrollable directly from the widget, but you can specify clicking on the widget to either add a new event or see the full calendar. The pinch zoom on the calendar app itself is very nice, and I've found it superior to agenda-type views. You can try the app itself out for free, then decide if you want to pay for it to get the widget.
I don't use a bookmark widget, but live bookmarks is supposed to be pretty good and HTC like (note, it's a live folder, not a widget)

I will give those a try, thank you for your suggestions...Greatly Appreciated!
I don't know of any widgets to do this, but I suggest not buying anything. 3.1 has support for re-sizable widgets, should be pushed out in June.

Looking forward to that update for sure, wish they would also add the option of removing/renaming App shortcut names leaving just the icon on your homepage like LP.

May in fact (just) ... due 31/05 .... in other words sometime in the next 24 hours and 46 minutes
I previously used LauncherPro which had it's own Twitter widget but now since the update I just want to keep everything stock ICS. So what are my options?
Android pro Widgets
Thanks! I will give that a go
+1 for Android Pro Widgets. I use their Timeline widget, which combines the Twitter and Facebook feeds into one feed. Love it!
APW is exactly what I was after, I went and bought the paid version. Also, the separate Google Reader widget is really useful and I like how it includes thumbnails of each news article. Good stuff! Thanks again
Is there a Twitter widget that properly integrates with the Twitter app? Same question for Facebook.

Android Pro Widgets allows opening tweets using Twitter for android (also supports Plume and Seesmic) and opening Facebook items using Facebook for android (also supports FriendCaster and Seesmic).
I'm not aware of any widget that takes its data directly from Twitter / Facebook official apps.
Ok, this probably needs to be moved to G2x Q&A. Sorry about that.
Hey all. A bit frustrated with twitter clients because I have two twitter accounts and I was looking for one app to optimize both. I love the Plume scrollable widget, but it doesn't separate tweets well for multiple accounts (i.e. - each in its own widget).
For some reason, the scrollable widget in Tweetcaster has worked only a couple of times - that is, I've placed it on my home screen, physically scrolled it and saw it work. That was... Awhile ago. I desperately want the scroll widget to work because there's no sense in using more than one app if one does what I need. Now when I select one of the three options, I don't get a scrollable widget at all. I've tried it under multiple conditions, and I've either been using the stock, Hellfire Phoenix ROM, with no custom launcher, Launcher Pro, and most preferably GO Launcher. Scrollable widgets option is on and operational because Plume's widget works without fail.
Does anyone know what's going on here?
