Describe a widget. Tilekit builds it. No layers, no scripts, no design skills. Tell Tilekit what you want โ "today's calendar with the next two reminders below" or "step count and a quick-add water button" โ and watch a real widget appear on your Home Screen. โ BUILT FROM PLAIN ENGLISH โ 21 building blocks (text, metric, gauge, list, photo, calendar, reminders, health, shortcut, contact, and more) combine into 7 layouts. The AI picks the right ones for what you described. Edit any block by tapping it. โ YOUR REAL DATA, NOT FAKE PREVIEWS โ Tilekit reads what's already on your iPhone: Apple Calendar, Reminders, HealthKit steps and activity, Photos, Contacts, Shortcuts. Everything stays on-device. Nothing is sent off your phone except your widget description. โ INTERACTIVE WIDGETS THAT ACTUALLY WORK โ Tap a reminder in the widget to mark it complete. Toggle a HomeKit scene. Run a Shortcut. Built on iOS 17 AppIntent so taps respond instantly without launching the app. โ EVERY WIDGET IS ALSO A SIRI COMMAND โ The widgets you create automatically appear as voice phrases and Spotlight results. "Hey Siri, today's plan" runs the widget you just built. No setup. โ SHARE THE SPEC, NOT THE DATA โ Send a widget design to a friend or coworker. They install it; their widget shows their calendar, their steps, their photos. The design travels; the data stays personal. โ FULL APPLE PLATFORM โ Live Activity. Dynamic Island. StandBy. Lock Screen. Control Center. Sign in with Apple. โ FREE & PAID โ Tilekit is free to download. The free tier includes 3 saved widgets, single-slot layouts, and 5 AI widget generations per month. Tilekit Pro is an auto-renewing subscription that unlocks unlimited saved widgets, every advanced layout, and unlimited AI generations โ with Family Sharing. $9.99/month or $79.99/year (the yearly plan includes a 7-day free trial).

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Friendly Reminder at none against Tilekit's 5. Friendly Reminder also leads on iOS requirement (16.6 vs 26.0). Tilekit's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and device support (3 vs 1). On price there is nothing between them.
