«on point» super minimaler Home-Bildschirm einrichten
Der Trend ist da. Der Home-Bildschirm des Smartphones sehr minimalistisch zu gestalten. Sich so auf das wesentliche zu konzentrieren! Mit einem Android Smartphone ist das super einfach zu realisieren. Man installiere sich einen entsprechenden Launcher – fertig. iOS bietet die Gestaltungsmöglichkeit nicht. Apple gibt die St…
Apple Watch and the new widgets introduced in OS 10. The watch widgets are not just a way of scrolling through your watch complications. Watch widgets are totally separate. And in fact, I use widgets as additional complications that I might not access as much. Here is how to add, remove, and work with widgets on your Apple Watch.
To access and scroll through your watch widgets, on your clock face, just flick up until you hear widgets and double tap. A list of your current watch widgets will appear.
You can navigate from widget to widget in 2 ways. By turning the crown, and by swiping from one to another.
Editing watch widgets.
To put your widgets in edit mode, just double tap and hold on any of the widgets. It will bring up your list of widgets in edit mode.
To remove a widget, just flick up on the widget and choose remove while in edit mode.
To add a widget, just choose the add button at the beginning of the list while in edit mode. It will bring up a list of all of the different apps to choose from. Double tap the app you want to add a widget from, and it will bring up a list of available widgets from that app. Just double tap the widget you want to add from that app to add it to your widget list.
To rearrange the order of your widgets.
While in edit mode, go to the widget you want to move. flick up and choose pin. This puts it in arrange mode. Then just double tap and hold on the widget and drag it to the position in the list that you want.
Like I said, I personally use widgets as a way of having additional complications that I can access quickly, but maybe not access them as much. For example, on my watch face I have the complication of the current weather conditions. And as one of my widgets, I have the current days forecast.
I also noticed that the heart widget actually shows your current heart rate, where some face complications do not show this.
I am all about being able to access information easily and quickly. So I really like the new watch widgets, and since they can be totally different than your complications, I think they can be very useful. Great job Apple!
@yatil There are such excellent points in this post that I came here to reblog this. I happened to see a reference to it on LinkedIn because my current SoMe skills are in a mess. Now I know the name of a “feature” I greatly dislike: exclusive accordions! I hope many developers and designers learn to exclude exclusive accordions from their apps, websites, whatever! Great post at https://yatil.net/blog/exclusive-accordions! #accessibility#accordions#html#widgets
Just noticed another #UX enhancement to hashtag treatment in Masto 4.2…
As well as gathering trailing hashtags and showing them below any pics in a too, it also does an "and 11 more..." with them rather than present a wall of hashtags if the OP included very many.
A nice touch!
Fun seeing #Mastodon evolve some subtle UX improvements like that. Now if we could get aggregation for likes & boost notifications I'd be even happier.
@ottaross The only difference between inline & trailing hashtags as I use them is that the first can fit into the flow of the text, & the latter can't. That doesn't make them extra; that just means they couldn't fit. For example if #widget fits grammatically but I also want to make sure someone can browse #widgets, the latter might get a trailing tag.
From an accessibility perspective anything that requires extra click actions to reveal informaiton is sub-optimal.
Yo #macOSSonoma folks: do desktop widgets offer options from both the Mac and iOS versions of an app for you? Also for apps you only have installed on iOS?
Check my screenshots: 1st one has 2Do for both iOS and Mac. 2nd one shows Bear for both platforms, as well as Best Buy, Blendle, and Blinkist, which I only have on my iPhone.
Zenitizer, your clean & simple meditation timer for Apple devices is ready for iOS 17 and watchOS 10 with:
• Interactive & StandBy widgets
• Deep Spotlight integration
• A friendly, redesigned Watch App
🚀 New update available! The Countdown and Watch Next widgets were updated to work great in StandBy Mode on iOS 17. On top of that, content syncs and loads up to 90% faster throughout the app for a super snappy experience! 🏃♀️
Another week, another game added to the interactive widgets in Widgle. This time, we have a MAZE! Control the mouse by tapping on the edges of the widget to move up/down/left/right.
I continue to be aMAZEd at what the new interactive widgets will let us do!
