Design for intelligence: customise your widgets
summary
Shows how to build iOS widgets with WidgetKit and SwiftUI, including intent-based configuration, the intent file UI types, and how to mark intents for Siri suggestions. Explains timelines, entries with date, relevance (score and duration), and the 24‑hour reload budget that typically yields 40–70 refreshes/day (roughly 15–60 minutes) with a 5‑minute minimum spacing. Details using intents and donations and supported parameter combinations so Smart Stacks surface the right widget at the right time.
