TerminalWidget

Display script and Shortcut output as custom widgets across supported Apple devices.

Our take

Useful for users who already write the underlying automation

Charts, tables and progress views make a chosen script result glanceable.

Keep in mind: Widget refresh/sync can lag and output is only as reliable as the script; the app is not a shell environment on every device or a monitoring uptime guarantee.

What you can do

  • Script/Shortcut/URL-driven widget content
  • Text, charts, icons, tables and progress
  • Home/Lock Screen sizes and iCloud exchange

Good for

  • Scripters checking their own non-sensitive outputs

Consider alternatives for

  • Included automation logic or guaranteed live monitoring

Limitations & considerations

  • Captured minimum: iOS 17.0.
  • Widget refresh/sync can lag and output is only as reliable as the script; the app is not a shell environment on every device or a monitoring uptime guarantee.

Privacy & permissions

Widget text may appear on a locked screen and iCloud carries synced content; remove credentials/private data from script output before display.
