Bug Fixes.

We’ve all been enjoying iOS 16 and having fun customizing our Lock Screens. In this update, we’ve added support for Lock Screen widgets in Marvis.

■ Section Widget
• Link a section you’ve set up on your Home tab.
• Assign an action to play or shuffle the section when you tap on the widget.
• TIP: Rename a section and assign a symbol to the left or right decoration so the section widgets can use those symbols.
• IMPORTANT: Due to major changes to the widget format, all your previous Home Screen Section widgets would either be removed or show up blank, and you’ll need to add new ones.

■ Quick Action Widget
• Get quick access to Marvis from your Lock Screen.
• You have access to many of the Marvis actions like Now Playing actions and Sidebar actions but you’re not limited to that, you can have your custom actions and assign a URL Scheme to them.
• With custom actions, you’re not limited to Marvis URL Schemes, you can use URL schemes of other apps or HTTP links that open in your default browser or app.
• The custom actions let you choose your own symbol and title and the widget settings have more options to make your widget appear the way you prefer.

■ Modern Progress Bar
• New iOS 16 style progress bar that allows you to start dragging from anywhere to scrub.
• You can switch back to the old style from Marvis Settings → Player → Progress Bar Style.
• Regardless of the style you choose you still get the ability to start dragging from anywhere to scrub.

■ New Smart Rules and metadata for Collections.
• Rate Progress
• Like Progress
• Median Play Count

■ New Smart Rule
• Current Date & Time
• You can use this rule to set up different conditions based on the time of day, day of the week, or day of the month.

■ Smart Conditions for Section Rename
• Includes a special condition ‘Displayed Location’, to toggle content based on whether it appears in-app or in the widget.

■ Added New Symbols to the Symbol Picker
• You can find them at the bottom of the symbols list.
• The original symbols are from Apple’s SF Symbols Library while the newly added ones are custom symbols made by us.
• Thanks to SF Symbols, we can build our own custom symbols while getting all the benefits of properties that SF Symbols have.

■ URL Schemes
• Open Home Section by ID. Copy a Section’s ID from the Section Edit screen and scroll down to find the ••• button.
• Section Playback Action, you can now directly play, shuffle, and more when using an Open Section URL Scheme.

• You can view all supported URL Schemes from Marvis Settings → Tips & Tricks.

■ Miscellaneous

• Fixes and improvements.
