SuperWidget

SUMMARY

SuperWidget is a user friendly app to create home and lock screen iOS widgets.

It enables to take advantage of Apple's Shortcuts app to pass values to any widget the user will create. And for anything behind that need, there's the possibility to download data for any public or custom API.

WHAT IT DOES

Since when iOS introduced widgets, people started to add any kind of data in their homescreen. Birthdays, special events, stock prices... these are only a few of the many infos that have been tracked with widgets.

But what if you want to track something that's more complex, or that simply doesn't have a dedicated app to do so?

Introducing SuperWidget

SuperWidget is an app that visually allows you to create widgets selecting a title and a value that will come either from the Shortcuts app, or a custom API. We all know Apple's Shortcuts app, but what's an API?

An API is simply a way for third party websites and apps, to share data with anyone. For instance, a weather website may expose an API to allow a third party calendar app to tell you what the weather will look like on the day of your event.

They are also really useful to track data. Like how many customers you have on your e-commerce, or the number of people that streamed your song on a streaming service.

Well, SuperWidget allows you to connect to these APIs and put all this data in your homescreen.
