Problem is: the template I guess was exported on Nexus 4 with it’s off-standard resolution of 768×1280. The x/y-ratio is different than on most common devices’ 720×1280 or 1080×1920 (+50% both x and y). So there’s no way to proportionally scale up the widgets.
Advise for Arun kumar: to support the majority of users’ devices, use i.e. Nomone Resolution Changer or adb-commands to change Nexus 4’s resolution to 720×1280. Import the template, fix issues, re-export and publish that one.

Lutz Linke Thanks Lutz. Thank means entire re work of widgets… And I am guessing changing resolution won’t work without root privileges right… Lost root after lollipop update. Will start working on it from today.
And Lutz I have a friend who has Nexus 5..would using that to export template could cause any issues for devices with lower resolution like 720p? If down scaling Zooper Widgets works properly then I can borrow his and work on his phone.

Arun kumar Importing on N5, fixing and re-exporting would work fine, even on lower resolution targets. Important is the ratio. It’d be good if you incude the ZW templates also in APK so they can be loaded manually just in case.
To change resolution, root is not required, also works with ADB command from PC. See i.e. here:

Thanks a lot..will start that now…
Hey I have also included ZW templates with the apk.. I tested by adding widgets in Nova launcher.. It worked, that means it is there right?
