About WidgetWorker
Now available for iPhone, iPad and Mac!
With WidgetWorker you get beautiful and unique widgets for your device that you can customize to your liking. Create your widget configurations inside the app and chose exactly the right configuration for your widgets. For each widget type you can create multiple configurations and swap them out inside the widget to show whatever you like, whenever you want.
WidgetWorker is a Photoshop like editor for creating totally custom widgets directly on your device. You can add
- Weather - Fully customize weather data for your personal needs.
- RSS feeds - Create custom RSS feed widgets that keep you informed.
- Websites - Place your favorite websites on right on your home screen.
- Photos - Show off your favorite photos.
- Drawings - Customize your home screen with your own drawings.

to your widget and position and size them as you like. There are a bunch of fonts to choose from and a great color picker to find the exact color you like.
When creating your widget configuration in the app you get a live preview of the widget in all the different sizes so making the configurations is easy and fast without the need to try out changes in the actual widget itself.
Of course all your widget configurations are synced across your devices so you can access them wherever you like.
The use of WidgetWorker is free of charge. Within the app, you can sign up for „WidgetWorker Pro“ subscription if you need to create more than 5 widget configurations or want to consume weather data. If you choose to subscribe, you will pay the price set for your country as shown inside the app, which is US$0.99 per month or US$9.99 per year, or the equivalent in your currency. When you purchase a subscription, your iTunes account is immediately charged for the first month at confirmation of purchase. Each subscription automatically renews for another month or year unless you choose to disable automatic renewal (via the Account Settings of your OS device or via the Manage Your Subscriptions button in the Settings menu of the app) at least 24 hours before the end of the current subscription period. The cost of a renewal by one month or year is the same as the cost of the original subscription. If automatic renewal happens, your iTunes account will be charged for the next subscription period up to 24 hours prior to the current subscription period. No cancellation of the current subscription is allowed during the active subscription period. Any unused portion of the free trial period will be forfeited when purchasing the subscription.

This update is all about weather. You can now create weather widget exactly to you liking. Combine weather maps, symbols and text of the current weather and/or prediction of the next few days. Of course can can show the weather of multiple places at once or make a widget for each.
Features:
- Weather maps: Add weather maps for temperature, precipitation, clouds, pressure and wind.
- Weather text: Show description, temperature, humidity, UV index, sunrise time, sunset time, pressure, rain, snow, etc.
- Weather symbols: Show weather icons.
Other improvements:
- iPhone devices will now show a Tab Bar instead of a Sidebar for navigation. This should be a nice quality of life improvement for all users.
- Text components in the Widget Builder can now be aligned left, center or right.
- And of course multiple minor fixes and improvements under the hood.
Note:
For consuming weather data you need to subscribe to WidgetWorker Pro within the app. You can do this in the Settings view or on the prompt when adding weather components in the Widget Builder. This is necessary because getting weather data actually costs money. Besides it helps me continue developing this app. Thank you in advance!

New Widget Builder components:

- Website: Show any website inside your widget, position it size it as you like and select a refresh interval just like for the RSS feed component.
Of course all theses components can be combined in one widget. For example you can have an rss fedd on the left half of the widget and a website on the right half.
Other new features:
- When selecting a component in the Widget Builder you now get an additional control panel that helps you quickly copy or delete the component
