BoardSnap doesn't have home screen widgets yet.
Short answer
BoardSnap does not currently offer home screen widgets, Lock Screen widgets, or Standby widgets. The quickest access to BoardSnap is from your home screen or dock — one tap and you're in the camera. A widget that showed your latest board summary or recent action items would be useful; it's just not built yet.
## Current status
BoardSnap has no widgets available for:
- Home Screen (small, medium, or large)
- Lock Screen
- Standby display
- iPad home screen
## What quick access looks like without widgets
- Add BoardSnap to your dock — always one tap away regardless of which app is open
- Home Screen shortcut — place BoardSnap on the first page of your home screen for one-tap access
- Spotlight search — swipe down anywhere on your home screen, type "Board" — BoardSnap appears immediately
The app opens straight to a state where you can start a new capture quickly. It's already fast without a widget.
## What useful BoardSnap widgets might look like
If widgets were built, the most useful versions would be:
- Recent action items widget — shows the last 3-5 open action items from your most recent board across all projects
- Quick capture button — a widget that opens BoardSnap directly to the camera
- Project overview widget — shows a chosen project's recent board count and pending open tasks
None of these exist today.
## When to expect widgets
No announced timeline. Widgets require WidgetKit implementation — it's a defined scope of work that hasn't been prioritized yet. If widgets are important to your workflow, send feedback to [email protected].
