I am curious, what apps are you using that you wish had widgets but don't? Personally I find that the apps I want widgets for, have them. Personal Finance (Copilot), Food Tracking (LifeSum), Task Tracking (Things and TickTick), plus the built in ones cover all my use cases. I also just went and looked to see what other apps I have installed that have one and I see other ones like Twitch, Youtube, Ritual, Reddit, Mela. I think most apps just don't need widgets, really just things that I want to have a quick glance to and the vast majority of my apps don't fall in that category. Edit: To clarify, I have yet to go looking for a widget for a specific app had not find one that does what I want.

Off topic, how do you find copilot? Is it using Plaid for account sync? Anything particularly good/bad?

  It does use Plaid, which unfortunately means they are at the mercy of them when things break... and things break a fair amount. I went over a month not being able to sync one of my accounts once. But it was all plaid. Outside of that, I really like the app. I wish there was an iPad app, I think they should have done that before a Mac app. But the Mac app is nice. It does what I need for it to, support is responsive but when its a syncing issue they are limited in what they can actually do. Also if you use an Apple Card it isnt real time syncing like Mint you have to import it after the month is over... which doesnt really help with budgeting.

    Cool! I’ll give it a shot, I really am trying to find one that isn’t horrible. Plaid isn’t a downside to me, and it looks like they support direct sync with CapitalOne bypassing Plaid. If you want to shoot your referral code to me over at eliz at bassh dot net I’ll plop it in :).
