My usual list of widget complaints

2025-07-01 00:00

I bitch about this every year

Let me pick the defaults

I always turn off suggestions and usually smart rotate. Let me just have that as a default.

More sizes

So we have the small 2x2, the medium 4x2 and the large 4x4 on iPhone; plus an extra large 8x4 on iPad.

  • I’d like a 1x1 for when you’re just using it as a button
  • Also 4x6 to fill the entire iPhone screen.
  • Plus various skinny widgets; both with width of 2 and 3

Adding stacks

  • When I add a new stack, don’t pre-fill it with junk, just let me pick by myself.
  • Let me turn a single widget into a stack when I long press

Showing widgets with data from other devices

We can do this with iPhone widgets on macOS. Let me do the same across all devices.
