Is there an auto for the theme, to use light or dark based on iOS dark mode status?

Can you confirm that you only request read-only access to the Twitter account?

Thanks.

Hi all,

First off, Looks like I'm not able to edit the original post because I'm a new member I suspect. Would appreciate if someone could add mine on.

Anyway, I was searching the App Store for a Twitter iOS 14 widget and was disappointed by the lack of apps that provide this functionality. So, I decided to build one myself!

Twidget was released to the App Store today!

I hope others find it useful! If you have any feature requests, feedback or questions; please don't hesitate to get in touch.

Check it out on the App Store!

Thanks!

Hi @tkwlee.

Short answer; not at the moment.

Currently, the app will show you the timeline of the user that you are currently logged in as. However, I plan to add the ability to show a specific account and also a specific hashtag. I may have time to add this feature over this weekend so will keep you updated. ?

Thanks.

Hi @Paco II,

The default theme is 'light' but you are able to manually choose between 'light', 'dark' and 'blue' for each widget.

Yes indeed, read-only. The app only calls 2 of the Twitter API's endpoints, Get User Profile and Get Home Timeline. The first of which is to display your user's name, handle, avatar, follower/following/tweet count in the app. The latter is used to fetch up to the 3 latest tweets on your timeline (depending on the Widget size you choose).

Hope that helps. Thanks.

Also, would love an option to exclude retweets and only get tweets and quote tweets. This is particularly useful when viewing a specific user’s tweets.

Edit: and one more minor request: since all taps require going through the app before being redirected to the Twitter app, please consider adding dark mode support to the app.

Hi @Paco II. Thanks for your support.

Yes, I've noted your suggested additions to Twidget and have added them to my list of features to implement.

I will try and get them implemented ASAP and will let you know when they're in.

Thanks again. ?

Hi @Paco II.

v1.0.6 of Twidget was released to the App Store today with the two feature requests you mentioned. I've added in the ability to show/hide retweets and also added dark mode into the app which is based off the system appearance.

I've also added in the ability to show tweets based on a particular hashtag.

Thanks!

Congrats with the launch good to see you went with the premium model. I've also added it to the user collections (iOS14 and premium health apps) in the AppRaven app.

Wow, Weather Line will be shutting down.

Weather Line App – Blog

weatherlineapp.com weatherlineapp.com

Almost seems like a joke. April 1, 2022 shutdown. 13 months.

Didn't expect that as well. It is a bit vague who is taking over and if the app will continue with the new owner or not. If it goes the same way as Dark Sky with Apple I guess.

I'm still really happy with Carrot Weather although the v5 has some UI changes I don't like and hope to be changed soon although I tend to mostly use the homescreen widgets (with amount and % of precipitation).

Hi! I just released an app called Moni to show your WooCommerce sales as widgets. Kinda niche(i mainly did it for personal use...), but might be helpful for someone.

apps.apple.com

‎Moni - Widgets for WooCommerce

‎Moni lets you view your WooCommerce store's sales & orders in widgets. See daily sales, orders received and items sold month to date in a customizable widget. You can change the date range to last month or the last 30 days. With the large orders widget, you can see your most recent 3 orders...
