What are your Favorite iOS 17 Interactive Widgets so far?
I’ve only been using the home widget and Timery so far, but I bet there’s a few really good ones out there many people haven‘t come across yet.
I hope everyone has some great suggestions here. I read a few articles on ‘best interactive widgets’ that all seemed to be for apps I don’t use and/or would not consider because of permissions. I thought Apple would be all over this with their own apps, but not as yet it seems.
13Everything now has fucking in app purchases…I’m using the apps I already paid for, built in apps and that’s it.
12Maybe it’s still a bit too early, most apps will probably get updates later on.

Overcast (podcast player) has a list of recent episodes with a play/pause button next to each one. Simple, but so much nicer than launching an app.
7I’m a single-pager when it comes to home screens, so screen real estate is exclusive for me.
I found one interactive widget worth putting into a 2x2 stack: CardPointers. I can quickly update and review the best credit card to use at wherever I am, from my Home Screen. Nice.
If I wasn’t such a stickler on keeping a single Home Screen, I’d probably use a larger Reminders widget. (I like checking stuff off lists. :-)
4I'm really liking the new StandBy function. I went ahead and bought a stand to use next to my bed. I love having the clock and the weather together.
3I’ve been having fun with the Pixel Pals widgets. More mindless fun than functional, but it’s cool that’s it’s made by Christian Selig
