🐹iOS Widgets

Add Ellie to your home screen 🥳

Ellie supports 3 different types of widgets on iOS so you can quickly see tasks and calendar events at a glance. They work on both iPhone and iPad.

The task widget

Ellie Tasks widget showing incomplete tasks from Today in the iOS widget gallery

The task widget lets you quickly see your incomplete tasks. You can choose to show tasks from:

1. Today

2. The Brain Dump

3. Any list

To change the source, press and hold the widget, choose Edit Widget, then pick Today, Brain Dump, or one of your lists.

The calendar widget

The calendar widget shows you upcoming events from your timebox/calendar on your Home Screen.

We pull both calendar events and timeboxed tasks into the widget!

The "Todos left" widget

This is a small fun widget meant to give you a gentle reminder about how many tasks you have left for the day.

As the day goes on, the widget and Ellie (the hamster the app is named after) slowly change depending on how many tasks and time there are left in the day.
