What first or third-party iOS widgets do you find especially useful?
Are there any that you’re already thinking about using on Mac with Sonoma’s continuity feature?
@tojikomori I’ve got a boring answer but it’s wonderful to have the calendar widget front and center showing what’s coming up for the day
I have the 4x4 stock calendar widget on my first Home Screen to quickly scan my day in the morning.
The widget I use most often is probably the dense 4x2 Carrot Weather one: it’s split down the middle between hourly and daily forecasts, which is helpful for quick chore & dog-walking decisions, especially when deciding whether to put something off until tomorrow because it’s too hot/cold/rainy.
This alone has me actually thinking about buying the Carrot weather app
I love the StrongLifts widget.
I don’t use many. I had the weather on there but was worried about battery life. I have fantastical, my bank, sports scores, and batteries. Should actually add a few more.
Launcher is my boy, and pretty much the only widget I use.
AltStore, Sports Alerts, and Obico. All on my home page along with the Photos memories widget.
Alt Store keeps me updated on my need to update.
Sports Alert helps me keep tabs on the only sport and team I follow.
Obico gives me a little image of my active 3D Print and a percentage complete bar.I do wish that they all updated more frequently, but they’re all helpful for things I want to keep track of, even when I’m not in a place to do so.
The photos “For You” widget is probably my favorite but I need to check out what’s available these days
In one stack I have: Weather, Google Calendar, HattiWatti (electricity price monitoring app in Finland)
I probably use more than most but Activity, Photos Calendar and Weather app have prominent placements for me. On the little hidden drawer to the left of home, I keep my “reader” and utility widgets like News and Shortcuts. I don’t use any in my Lock Screen because I like the depth effect too much.
