Widget Construction Set
Widget Construction Set is available for iOS devices on the App Store.
Launch URLs
Widget Construction Set supports a URL scheme of widget://
.
You can programmatically add a widget by launching widget://add_widget?url=...
.
If you want to go meta, you could make a large widget that showed widget previews inside it. Tapping the image of a wiget preview could use link_url
with the url of widget://add_widget?url=...
.
If you want to link to private widgets with the credentials embedded in the add link, you can pass extra query parameters of user
and password
. For example widget://add_widget?url=...&user=...&password=...
.
Widget Fetch Interval
Widget Construction Set fetches widgets around every 15 minutes. It isn't meant to be real-time, but should stay relatively up-to-date.
