The parcel widget stopped working for me. Think after 3 "trackings" they want you to buy Premium.
Yes you can only track 3 on the free verison, but its wel worth $.
I have used all the rest and this one has been the most acurate for me at least
Yes, this looks much nicer to me. I wish/hope that other apps can start doing this as well. I was under the impression that it was iOS that did not allow that.
In re the Parcels app (mentioned further down)... Yes, only three trackings until you pay. And it was an annual subscription cost, not just a one-time purchase price. I have already uninstalled it.... But not for hhat reason. I entered a tracking number from UPS that after three days it still showed no info available... Despite my other Deliveries app having full info on it since day one. Unsure what the problem was.
I used deliveries for years and swore by it but it doesn't have true push notifications like parcel does it uses background app refresh to do it and it never works. I've been using parcel and it works much better on iPad iPhone and Mac
Not sure why they changed then monthly calendar ordering around without making it an option essentially.The widgets app has just been updated. I love the new calculator design. The older version had circular buttons which made it harder to type on, and it's also now more optimised to take advantage of the larger iPad space.
Just got this, but I wonder what the impact on battery life is like? Since it seems to be monitoring all your copies all the time.
I have enabled even background refresh for that app and no major battery drain. iOS 8 introduced extensions and seems that devs can use clipboard API so it shouldn't drain your battery a lot. Furthermore, with this app you can also copy pictures
+ iCloud sync...amazing app
Is there any chance of a Twitter widget for ios?
One of my favourite things about my S5 was just mindlessly browsing all of my tweets from the home screen, not sure it fits ios' widget concept though.

Just bought Parcel app. I added the widget but it doesn't show up. Does it only show upcoming packages? I had a delivery that was expected yesterday but never got delivered and the widget doesn't show it.

Check out taptoshare but because of apple's rule widget opens the taptoshare app itself in order to post on Facebook or to tweet.
The second image is what it looks like after you tap on the widget.

Is there a way to show a list of reminders in the widget that don't have a date set? I'd be willing to pay for that but I can't see anything about that in the app description.
GoodTask does this for me.
----------
Now in English.
Actually has very nice features and options from widget.
Liked the look of Goodtask but could not get the location part to work or iCloud sync,will keep trying
I just set the location reminder with Siri, and it shows up in a GoodTask.. And in the GoodTask widget in the notification center.
Can I get a screenshot please. Can you mark as done straight in the widget or does it open the app?
