Describe a widget. Tilekit builds it. No layers, no scripts, no design skills. Tell Tilekit what you want β "today's calendar with the next two reminders below" or "step count and a quick-add water button" β and watch a real widget appear on your Home Screen. β BUILT FROM PLAIN ENGLISH β 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. β YOUR REAL DATA, NOT FAKE PREVIEWS β 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. β INTERACTIVE WIDGETS THAT ACTUALLY WORK β 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. β EVERY WIDGET IS ALSO A SIRI COMMAND β 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. β SHARE THE SPEC, NOT THE DATA β 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. β FULL APPLE PLATFORM β Live Activity. Dynamic Island. StandBy. Lock Screen. Control Center. Sign in with Apple. β FREE & PAID β Tilekit is free to download. The free tier includes 3 saved widgets, single-slot layouts, and 5 AI widget generations per month.
