WidgetKit is Apple's framework for creating widgets, small, interactive apps displayed on iPhone/iPad home screen, lock screen, and Mac desktop. Widgets use SwiftUI for UI, provide data via TimelineProvider, and refresh on a schedule controlled by the system. Widgets complement apps by surfacing glanceable information without requiring app launch. WidgetKit replaced older NotificationCenter extensions; it's simpler, faster, and more flexible. Widgets are a native iOS/macOS feature; users see them constantly. Well-designed widgets drive app engagement and retention.

What's the difference between a widget and an app?
Widget = small glanceable display on home/lock screen; no deep interaction. App = full experience users launch. Widgets complement apps; don't replace them.
How often do widgets refresh?
iOS limits widget refresh: minutely (up to once per minute), hourly, daily, or on-demand. Refresh is power-limited; users see stale data if refresh fails.
Can I make widgets interactive?
Limited interactivity: buttons in iOS 17+, taps to launch app. Full interactivity requires launching the full app. Widgets are view-only by design.
How do I share data between widget and app?
App Groups + UserDefaults or file sharing. Widget and app run in different processes; shared containers enable IPC data sharing.
Do lock screen widgets have different constraints?
Yes. Lock screen widgets are smaller, tighter memory budgets, limited interactions. Design differently than home screen widgets.
