Ranting about the implementation of Widgets in iOS 14 from Android’s existing feature is done. Here’s what you might have missed about a cool Widget feature in iOS 14.
SMART STACK
Craig Federighi showcased this really cool feature on June 22, in the World Wide Developers Conference ( WWDC 2020 ) but most would have missed appreciating it.
I know people focussed more on just ranting Apple for integrating the Widgets which are already present from very long on Android into iPhones but they missed how beautiful the Widgets look and feel on iPhones.
That’s another complete topic to discuss how cool and beautiful widgets are on iOS 14.
In due course, they also missed this really cool feature ~Smart Stack.
Smart Stack is just a stack of widgets that can be accessed in a single area.
We can swipe through the stack to switch between widgets at the same place.
How Cool!
Pick just the one I want for the moment
— Craig Federighi, Senior VP, Software Engg, Apple
We don’t need to put in a lot of widgets that make the home screen clumsy. There’s this single widget that can do the task of all of them.
We know Apple always has a Pro Version for everything they bring in.
Apple has a Pro variant of this Smart Stack too…
Pro Smart Stack
The smart stack can do the right widget for the right time change for you automatically. It changes according to the need by analyzing the time of the day and requirements at that moment.
News Widget in the morning for a briefing
Calendar Widget throughout the day for meeting
Activity Widget in the evening for summary
The default widgets and default settings on automatic change feature doesn’t cause you a hinderance. You can customize your Smart stack for your own requirements. You can also have multiple smart stacks depending on how you are aiming to use them.
