Powered by Google Sheets or JSON endpoints

Your data.
The missing connection.

Turn a Google Sheet or JSON endpoint into a widget powered by your own data. Bring project lists, goals and key numbers to your Home Screen, Lock Screen or full-screen design. No connection? Just type your own text or number.

  • Reuse one connection across multiple widgets
  • Choose a column, a single cell or your own text
  • Keep API keys in the iOS Keychain

Optional / advanced customization

Go beyond
the template.

Ready-made templates handle the everyday. Want complete control? Layout JSON lets you arrange text, stacks, bars and rings in a custom canvas, then bind them to your data. It’s an optional power tool, never a setup step.

A few useful things to know

Before you
make it yours.

Do I need to write code?

No. Start with a ready-made template and use the visual editor to change its content and style. Layout JSON is an optional advanced tool for complete design control. Connecting a JSON data endpoint does not require writing a JSON layout.

Do I need a spreadsheet?

No. You can type your own text or number directly into a widget. A connection is optional, for information you want to refresh.

Does it work on the Lock Screen?

Yes. WidgetWire supports circular, rectangular and inline Lock Screen widgets, as well as small, medium and large Home Screen widgets. Available layouts adapt to the size you choose.

Can I connect a private Google Sheet?

Google Sheets must be shared with anyone who has the link. WidgetWire doesn't sign in to Google. Private JSON APIs can use a bearer token, custom header or query key stored in Keychain.

Can I make a full-screen widget?

Yes. Choose Full Screen to design a portrait widget with more room for your content, including up to 12 list rows. Power it with Google Sheets or a JSON endpoint, or use your own fixed content. You can create and preview it on older iPhones; adding this size to your Home Screen requires iOS 27 and a compatible WidgetWire build.

Does the app install widgets for me?

iOS handles installation. Save your design in WidgetWire, then use the Home or Lock Screen widget picker to add WidgetWire and select your design. The app walks you through it.

When can I download it?

WidgetWire is being prepared for release. There isn't an App Store listing yet; this page will link directly to it when the app is available.
