The stock Notes widget isn't useful to me. It doesn't allow me to specify which note I want it to always display. Yes, I can have it display the most recently edited note (Settings > Notes > Viewing > Sort Notes By Date Edited), but if I make an edit to another note, then that note is now displayed.

The solution I've found is to open the Shortcuts app and select the desired note from the "Shortcuts from Your Apps" section at the top. You can rename it and now that it's in the shortcuts, widget, it will always be just a tap away. You can also do this for multiple notes.
