Speaking of feedback - I much prefer the kind of support request that ends up leading to a great new feature, like the one in the latest update of @getdashlet.app A user asked if there was quick link support for configuring a data source or widget. #buildInPublic #dev #swift #iOS

✨ Dashlet 1.8 is here! Set up a widget from a link: send someone a data source, or a whole widget, and it opens filled in. Your tokens never travel with it. --- getdashlet.app/changelog.html#1.8 #iOS #indiedev #appstore #swift #swiftUI

🚀 Dashlet 1.7 just shipped! The widget preview now stays on screen while you edit, and on iPad the editor and your data sources finally use the whole display. getdashlet.app/changelog.html#1.7 #iOS #indiedev #appstore #swift #swiftUI

Also adding iPad layout improvements, with benefits of improving the look on iPhone Duo - not hating it, but needs further tweaks. Will continue to keep slowly iterating - it's good enough for the Duo launch. #iphoneduo #swiftUI #buildinpublic #appdev

Configuring a widget in @getdashlet.app becomes quite annoying, if you can't really see what your changes are doing (and have to scroll back up to the top all the time). Upcoming version will have this change keeping the widget preview visible at all times. #buildInPublic #dev #swift #swiftUI #iOS

🛠️ Dashlet 1.6.1 just dropped! Refresh fixes: the widget refresh button now lands or says why, interrupted refreshes stop counting as failures, and Diagnostics sees widget fetches. getdashlet.app/changelog.html#1.6.1 #iOS #indiedev #appstore #swift #swiftUI

They could share it - but since endpoints are not controlled by the app (users bring their own data endpoints) this is all more of an FYI for them, to know what their endpoints are doing. It could help debug a widget never finishing an update, though.

The diagnostics are user visible… but currently not exportable. This is more so the user can know what their endpoints are doing. Stale can be seen from the freshness label on the widget itself (same for if a refresh failed, that will be indicated). For slow - that’s what diagnostics are for

Dashlet - Widgets for any Data @getdashlet.app · 23/09/2026

Each widget shows the recency of their data - but inside the app, each data source has a diagnostics log of all the refresh requests it made, their latency and status (and in case of failure, the reason for it).

📦 Dashlet 1.6 has landed! Extra-large widgets, any font on your device for widget themes, left/right image cropping, and no more stale images on the dashboard. getdashlet.app/changelog.html#1.6 #iOS #indiedev #appstore #swift #swiftUI

The data was always "fresh" - unless `URLSession` defaulted to a stale cache. I tried really hard to make refreshes as limited and consolidated as possible, to keep the battery life as good as possible - the biggest impact comes from the number of different data sources.

Auto-hiding controls is a thoughtful dashboard detail because the data gets the space until you need to change it.

After waiting weeks for review and two rejections (one not my fault and one very much my fault) I managed to get @getdashlet.app 1.2 released today. It contains a whole bunch of fixes and improvements (even some meant for version 1.3) (1/2) #buildInPublic #dev #swift #swiftUI #iOS

Good news: @getdashlet.app went into review after 5 days Bad news: first time I see this rejection, and I have no idea how it's possible (did I mess up the gating on some feature? 🤔) Time to chase this down and submit again 🫠 #buildInPublic #dev #swift #swiftUI #iOS #rejectedByAppReview

Launch day for @getdashlet.app has come - it is now available for download, and, at least for now, pre-orders seem like a good way to go - though even with a longer lead time would've been better. (1/3) #buildInPublic #dev #swift #swiftUI #iOS

I built myself a simple web analytics dashboard to keep a basic track of unique visitors to my website/various app landing pages. But opening Safari and navigating to it quickly became annoying - I wanted to have the stats glanceable on my home screen. (1/4) #buildInPublic #dev #swift #iOS #widget

Screenshot of an iPhone homescreen showing 3 Dashlet widgets:
- small temperature gauge widget showing 23.2 degrees celsius and a gauge partially filled
- a small image widget with a photo of a cat
- a large dashboard widget showing unique visit counts for 7 different domains, with a bar chart for the last 30 days history for each

Close to releasing one of my more ambitious apps - @getdashlet.app It can take any endpoint and help you turn it into a beautiful widget that can live and update on your home screen, lock screen, or even as a complication on the Apple Watch. (1/2) #buildInPublic #dev #swift #swiftUI #iOS

Not every API has an app with widgets to go with it, and you shouldn't be required to code an app just to be able to glance at a chart or number on your phone. With Dashlet, any data can be on your iPhone home or lock screen. Pre-order on the App Store now! getdashlet.app #ios #swift #swiftUI
