FEWS โ€” FALL Early Warning System See in one place whether the cloud services you depend on are up. Free, no ads, no account, no data collection. Built by an engineer, for engineers. Thirty-one providers across cloud, observability, devtools, CDN, AI, payments, data, auth, and communication โ€” including the big three clouds with per-region filtering, version control, container registries, AI APIs, edge networks, and the infrastructure your stack depends on every day. Add your own status pages too โ€” any Statuspage.io v2 endpoint works. WHAT FEWS DOES โ€ข One screen with the live status of every service you selected โ€ข Per-region filtering for AWS, GCP, and Azure โ€” a Mumbai-only outage stops bubbling up as a service-wide red if you only run in us-east-1 โ€ข Add your own services from Settings โ€” any Statuspage.io v2 endpoint, validated live before it lands โ€ข Drill into each service for active and recent incidents with the full timeline โ€ข Drag-to-reorder the dashboard โ€ข 24-hour uptime sparkline with computed operational and degraded durations โ€ข A local history of state changes โ€” see what was down while you were not looking โ€ข Home screen and lock screen widgets so you can glance without unlocking โ€ข Opportunistic local notifications when iOS lets us refresh in the background WHAT FEWS DOES NOT DO โ€ข Polling in iOS background is unreliable by design โ€” Apple decides when and whether to run it. FEWS is honest about that. For guaranteed current status, open the app. โ€ข No account. No analytics. No tracking. No ads. No backend. Now and forever. Made by FALL Engenharia. Proprietary software, distributed free under Apple's standard EULA. FEWS is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any monitored service. All brand names and marks belong to their respective owners.

Your GitHub contribution graph, right on your home screen โ€” no account required. GitWidget turns any GitHub username into a live, visual snapshot of coding activity. Browse a beautiful animated contribution heatmap, check total contributions, current streak, and longest streak โ€” all without signing in to anything. Enter a username and you're up in seconds. The widget is the star of the show. Pin a small or medium home screen widget to any GitHub username and see the last 3 months of contributions at a glance. GitWidget refreshes throughout the day, so your stats stay current as new commits roll in. Whether it's your own profile or a teammate's, your activity is always one swipe away. Then there's the dino. Commit today and it's absolutely thrilled. Skip a day and it sulks in the corner. Build a streak and it takes flight โ€” literally. It's a small touch, but the kind of daily nudge that actually works. No login. No account. No setup beyond typing a username. GitWidget is built for developers who want their stats visible and immediate, not buried in a browser tab. Recent usernames are saved for quick switching between profiles, and pull to refresh grabs the latest activity whenever you need it. Four color themes โ€” classic green, blue, purple, and sunset โ€” let your widget look right at home on any home screen aesthetic. If you care about your commit streak, want to keep an eye on a collaborator, or just love seeing that contribution graph in all its glory, GitWidget is the simplest way to put it front and center. Download GitWidget and pin your streak to your home screen today.
