Excellent, with steep learning curve

Pulls together the use of shortcuts, widgets & automations.

I’ve made loads of shortcuts for all different things, and a good chunk of them are automated to run at specific times and send me a notification of the result. I’ve got these for ‘quotes for the day’, which plants need watering today, etc.

Now, instead of using a notification, I display the results on a widget on my Home Screen.

I’ve removed a star because as awesome as this app is, it’s a steep learning curve that could have been helped with some decent tutorials. I’m still getting to grips with the different ways you can customise widgets, but excited to learn more.

Be prepared for a lot of trial and error.
