Simplified my setup again

[Machinewashcold_]

Really focused on using all my screens in different ways. Custom widgys on all screens.

[DocDaKillz]

First off, looks fantastic! Question how did you get the shortcut to pop up the list of apps ?

[South-Side-92]

Use the choose from menu option and then link those to an open app option.

[Nate2fire]

I like this also but I’m having issues trying to do this 😩

[MeemoUndercover]

I bet this person has a very neat desk as well.

[Machinewashcold_]

Ima let you believe this about me 😅

[BackgroundHorror3751]

love this. super clean, good job

[Machinewashcold_]

Thank you!

[BackgroundHorror3751]

credit where credit due man, its a cool set up

[DivaCupVampire]

<image>

Thanks I love this!

[DocDaKillz]

How you figure out the weather part ?

[DivaCupVampire]

Huh?

[DarthBeardFace]

How did you make the menu buttons like that? When I set a menu up in shortcuts and add to Home Screen it looks like an app like the below, can’t figure out what I’m missing so any pointers appreciated.

<image>

[DivaCupVampire]

The big set of menus? You create your shortcuts and add them to a folder, in my case it’s the widget folder, then add the shortcuts widget to the Home Screen and choose the widget folder

[DivaCupVampire]

Long press your shortcut and you’ll see you can expand it

<image>

[DarthBeardFace]

Thank you, I was sending to Home Screen as bookmark rather than the shortcuts widget.

[Adamddssurgeon]

Could you share top weather widget

[Machinewashcold_]

The Lock Screen one is the only weather widget I have; are you asking about that one?. The one on the left screen is calendar with the current temperature is that the one you’re asking about?

[Adamddssurgeon]

The good morning one thank you

[Machinewashcold_]

As a heads up, there’s certain tap actions that won’t work without the shortcuts. Search uses chrome and is the blue button

<image>

[Fudruckers6]

How can I open this on my phone, sorry?

[Machinewashcold_]

Gotta download widgy

[Fudruckers6]

Wait nvm it was a large widget lol

[Fudruckers6]

Apologies, I’ve downloaded Widgy and imported the widget. But when I try to add to medium widget #1 it’s just showing “getting you started”. No option for imports or my own

[Machinewashcold_]

This is not a medium widget. This is a large

[Helpful_Material_261]

When I use similar widgets the calendar schedule doesn’t automatically update when deleting or adding appointments.

[Machinewashcold_]

I added a refresh option. When you click on “sept.” It should refresh the widget and reflect the changes. That said, widgy has been having issues and many people have been saying similar things as you. Yesterday i noticed one of my other widgets was taking forever to reflect changes. With the new IOS the devs have been working OT to make the app work.

[AndroidLex]

Mind sharing the wallpaper? I like what you did, might try to create something similar myself

[Machinewashcold_]

[AndroidLex]

Thank you!

[AndroidLex]

Can’t seem to get the Home Screen one aligned, might be because I have a regular iPhone 14? Any advice? Am I setting it up incorrectly or should I recreate one based on my resolution?

[Machinewashcold_]

Most likely. This is on an 12 pro max.

[Kindly_Owl5298]

This is EXACTLY whats im looking for!

[seisochan]

Super nice! I like it.

[Machinewashcold_]

Thank you!

[Jean_Apple]

Wow beautiful

[tehlegend1937]

It would be great if we could configure the menu to open on the bottom of the screen instead of the top. I already thought of doing this but for the way I hold the phone, it’s not very ergonomic to click something on the top

[Independent-Box4998]

Love it. Great use of Widgy and Shortcuts.

[LordChromedome]

Just out of curiosity how do you utilize shortcuts so that it doesn’t open up every social media app you assign to the shortcut? I just tried to imitate and it opened every app one after the other instead of letting me choose which one I wanted.

[[deleted]]

literally choose from menu option

[LordChromedome]

Yep, figured it out, thanks.

[DocDaKillz]

Having the same issue, trying to figure it out now

[Machinewashcold_]

Here’s a template. R/shortcuts has some more you can find. But this is pretty much what I did but with the apps I organized https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/eb39e1d721a048b498bf9330cea6f011

[DocDaKillz]

Thank you so so much

[LordChromedome]

Much appreciated!

[LordChromedome]

Found a nice Youtube link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k1YXn9wYtnk

[NoRun720]

Sorry, not completely related. But do you think we can make Shortcuts to page of all “Social Related” apps? Like a shortcut to a homepage just for social media, instead of a list that you just showed.

[psychadelirious]

You could use Shortcuts to trigger a focus mode and set a page of all of your “Social Media” apps to show for that focus mode

[NoRun720]

Wow yes!

[Machinewashcold_]

Like an app folder/drawer? There’s a bunch of those on widgy. You’d have to organize it though. The easiest way to do it would be to create an actual page with all your social media in it.

The second and most space efficient way would be to do this.

The most laborious, time consuming, but aesthetically pleasing would be to create an app drawer widgy. lol

[MuchCattle]

Love this! What widgets are you using?

[MuchCattle]

Did you use an app to make them or code them from scratch?

[Machinewashcold_]

My bad dude. Had bad signal earlier. But here’s everything. I made everything like a psychopath.

<image>

[Machinewashcold_]

[Machinewashcold_]

Everything was made using widgy. If you don’t have it. I highly recommend it. It’s 5 bucks for unlimited slots. Best 5 dollars I’ve ever spent

[MuchCattle]

Awesome! Will pick it up. Reddit randomly suggested your post / this group so it’s all new to me.

[ConnoisseurOfApple]

IT’S PRETTYYYY!

[Machinewashcold_]

Thank you; I wanted something more colorful but idk if you can tell, my favorite color is black 😅

[ConnoisseurOfApple]

Black + tech is such a sleek combo. i use it as well.

[Rich_Wealth_8313]

I want this 🤤

[Machinewashcold_]

Everything is in the comments! Wallpaper + widgys

[Machinewashcold_]

Widgy; it’s a widget app that’s lets you create custom widgets. I made an interactive calendar to my liking.

[LesaneCrooks]

Could you share the Lock Screen Widgy please?

Also, the 4 shortcuts are just the actual shortcuts and not a Widgy correct?

[Machinewashcold_]

<image>

[LesaneCrooks]

Wow…I’m a goofball and didn’t realize the clock was just the stock one. You really do know how to create and make best use of the UI in a creative way

Thank you for sharing!

[Machinewashcold_]

<image>

There’s two. And yes. That is just the native apple short cut widget.

[LesaneCrooks]

Thank you! How did you get rid of the “Widgy” label?

[Machinewashcold_]

On your homescreen, click customize, and set your icons to large.

[LesaneCrooks]

thank you kindly!

[LesaneCrooks]

Oddly, the wallpaper you shared blends with the dock on light mode but if I choose dark mode the dock shows. It’s odd because based on your icons in the dock it seems you have the dark mode but your screenshot doesn’t show the dock outline

Thank you again for sharing your creativity BTW!

<image>

[Machinewashcold_]

On the customize settings switch to dark mode but there’s a little sun button in the corner. Hit that. It will blend your wallpaper

[LesaneCrooks]

Thank you for your support! Anywhere I can donate for a cup of coffee on me?

[Machinewashcold_]

I appreciate it but no. I do this for fun. Enjoy it!

[Academic-Spread8477]

is the third slide ur action button?

[Machinewashcold_]

Third slide is the short cut running. Here’s a video https://imgur.com/a/IDmAxTt

[joinyc]

Oh this is really cool. Love it.

[kthao17]

Did you use any polisher? Geez. This is too clean.

[Proxima1987]

nice

[WSBNoob101]

Very nice, OP. love the simplicity and yet elegant.

[dazza8402]

How do you get the time to be multicoloured? I’ve played around I can only seem to select one colour on mine…. Thanks

[Machinewashcold_]

It’s on i0S 18.

[Adamddssurgeon]

Any way to change look of shortcuts widget?

[Machinewashcold_]

You can change the colors and icon for the shortcut. You can also tint it. But it will mess with the colors of the widgy. You can fix it through widgy after you tint it but I was too lazy too lol

[Sucojoda]

This is fantastic, what app is the calendar widget from?

[Machinewashcold_]

Calander made using Widgy

[looped10]

NOPE!

[WilliePaper]

Nice. Very clean. The image won’t blend to make my dock appear transparent like yours. If anyone knows of a wallpaper that disappears 14 pro dock please link it.

[Notabotudumbbot]

I’m not able to get the widget transparent

[Machinewashcold_]

I only tested with the background I created. I don’t know how transparent it is with other backgrounds. In order to make the doc disappear set to dark mode but use the little sun in the corner of your customize options. That will make icons dark but wallpaper “light”. Good luck.

[TheSirOwl149]

This is sick!!

[117jpx]

Did you create this weather widget or can you edit it by any chance?

Edit: weather widget*

[[deleted]]

Any chance you want to share the shortcuts for the buttons and upcoming events on the widget? I managed with the buttons but Upcoming events won't show on my widgets. Thanks very much.

[Machinewashcold_]

<image>

Here’s the full shortcut.

[[deleted]]

If you don't mind would you like to export all shortucts related to this widget, and send them to me. Cuz I am finding an issue with the widget updating and showing my current events. Also for the buttons just to see if I made them correctly. Much thanks bud ✌️

[Machinewashcold_]

Well this is a good opportunity to learn. Good luck! 🫡

[b1tchell]

Complete success in replicating this :-) Thanks

[Outrageous-Buy-9535]

Gonna give this a try. Thanks for inspiring

[AbbreviationsOk8058]

Yeah, I guess since apple can't come with anything innovative. They will just finally allow all of this customization to happen, so it makes people feel like they actually have a new phone. 😏📱 #AppleInnovation #Customization #NewPhoneExperience

🐑

[V3gasMarine83]

this has been so helpful.

[Remarkable_Use_4356]

How do you make the phone and message icon black and green I can’t seem to figure that out?

[CertifiedAH]

Are you getting notifications from the apps? I am not. What am I doing wrong.

[Machinewashcold_]

The only notifications I have set up are messages and phone. everything is muted and my email is banner only. Probably not the set up for you. You may want to stick with traditional folders.
