LANChat Pro vs XL Widgets

LANChat Pro gives nearby iPhone and Mac devices a direct shared space for messages and files on the same reachable local network. FIND DEVICES AROUND YOU LANChat Pro discovers compatible devices with Bonjour. Choose a nearby Mac, scan its QR code with the camera, or select a QR image from Photos, then accept the secure connection request. CHAT AND SHARE Use one conversation for text, images, animated stickers, replies, and files. Save useful images to Photos, keep important people in Contacts, and add private remarks that stay on your device. BUILT FOR YOUR LOCAL NETWORK • Start with a device name instead of an account • Protect peer conversations with encryption in transit • Keep chat history and received files on the iPhone • Discover and connect only across a reachable local network • Personalize your device name, avatar, appearance, and themes LANChat Pro is useful at home, in studios, classrooms, labs, small teams, and temporary spaces. It does not relay conversations through a hosted chat service. Devices must share a reachable local network; guest Wi-Fi, client isolation, or firewall rules can prevent discovery and connection.

XL Widgets is built for the brand-new extra-large widget in iOS 27, the 4x6 tile that fills most of your Home Screen. Turn one page into a photo frame, a countdown, a calendar, or a giant clock. Every widget comes in four sizes, small, medium, large, and extra-large, so you can mix a tiny CarPlay-ready dial with a full-page XL centerpiece. The five widgets: Photo Pick one or more photo sets from your library. The widget rotates through them on your Home Screen. At extra-large size it becomes a full-page picture frame. Countdown Track the days to a trip, a birthday, a deadline, or any date that matters. The XL size turns a countdown into a bold, glance-and-go number. Calendar See your upcoming events at a glance, from a quick agenda strip at small size to a full week view at extra-large. Daily Note A single line for today, written on-device by Apple Intelligence on supported iPhones. On other iPhones you get a curated quote instead. Either way, it is a fresh line worth a glance every morning. Clock and Date A big, typographic clock and date. At extra-large size it becomes a striking Home Screen centerpiece; at small size it doubles as a clean CarPlay dashboard widget. How it works Long-press your Home Screen, tap the plus button, choose XL Widgets, and pick a widget and size. Small widgets also show up on your CarPlay dashboard automatically. Privacy XL Widgets has no accounts, no sign-in, and no servers. Your photos, events, and notes are read and processed entirely on your iPhone and never leave the device. There is no analytics and no tracking of any kind. FREE TO TRY XL Widgets is free: Clock & Date, Daily Note, one countdown and one photo set. XL Widgets Pro adds the Calendar widget, unlimited countdowns and unlimited photo sets. Choose a yearly subscription, which renews automatically until you cancel it in Settings, or a one-time Lifetime purchase. If you bought Pro before, it stays yours. No ads, ever.
