I would like to create an iOS widget for my app. In my Ionic Capacitor app I am saving a list of locations using the capacitor Storage api. Would it be possible to access these locations from a widget? If so, how would I go about doing that? Thanks for any help!

With some basic tests the team has done in the past, it is possible to use Capacitor with iOS widgets. However, it is currently not officially supported so you may run into some developing pains.

I did some digging around and found this plugin that may be of use (haven’t tested it out yet).
