For music player to function correctly
• Select your "Preferred Music Player" within KWGT Settings.
• Make sure Kustom has access to Notifications (it should ask you when you save)
• Start your music player at least once (Kustom detects automatically the player being used)
• Ensure the Player properly shows a Notification
• If cover doesnt work ensure your player (Poweramp for example) doesnt have an option to hide the cover in the Lockscreen
• Try to reboot once, this sometimes is needed when Kustom is upgraded (you can also try reinstalling worst case)
• Some players might not work, in most cases this is related to the player not implementing Android standards (usually test can be done with Google Music which is fully supported).

When I downloaded KWGT this is pretty much exactly what I imagined doing. The app needs some polish though. For example, the music controls are iffy. Download album art doesn't work and the track progress is screwed up by pausing and unpausing. Some of the settings don't link properly, but that's not a big deal since it's meant to be changed anyways. The padding was also screwed when I first added the widget making it way smaller than it should be, but again that was changeable in the KWGT portion so no biggie. Edit: Seems I was using an incompatible player. Tried out a different one and it worked great, though the default size for album art is way too small. Still getting used to actually having to player around with everything rather than it being plug and play.
