Reposted by dit und datSimon B. Støvring @simonbs.dev · 20/08/2026Here’s a Canvases widget I use every day. My local gym has a gate that you open through their app when entering and leaving. The app is ugly and slow. So I made a widget that shows how many people are currently at the gym. Tapping it runs a shortcut that lets me check in or out and opens the gate. 011
