SensorKit - Smart Home Widgets App Reviews

Saw this from the Reddit post and I’m trying it out. I hope you roll out more features like switching between f and c temps and multi sensor widgets. I like the app and will continue to watch its development.

Amazing effort!! Would love the ability to customize how the widget looks. Especially changing the 24hour clock to a 12hour clock, but why stop there? Lots of wasted space in the widget and would like to be able to modify it.

This is a good try but should have started as a Testflight beta to iron out the kinks. Not being able to use the correct temperature units results in apps that are… half baked.

This is an update to my original review. Originally I gave 3 stars because it had room for improvement. Dropped it to 2 Stars, for the fact that I have to open the app daily to get it to “refresh” the data. Isn’t that what the background app refresh is for. The developer also reached out to me, and gave me a heads up they fixed the issue with the temp only showing in celsius, and that a few more sensors were added. Unfortunately garage doors or at least my garage door’s sensors don’t show u

This app is a great idea and could be very useful for me to see my HomeKit sensor status at a glance. However, without background refresh, I have to open the app constantly to get the current data. This means I never know if the widgets are telling me the truth unless I have just opened the app, which renders it almost useless. Dev, if you have the ability, please fix this.
