Latest scobble iOS widget? #3

Closed jbwharris closed 2 years ago

I know you mentioned about other ideas for the app, so this was one I've been mulling over. Would it be possible to make a latest scrobbles widget? I have this widget that shows me the last song that was played in Apple Music, it would basically be the same thing, but for scrobbles. This one is from the app WidgetPod.

I'm not sure if this would be outside of spec for this app, since I know it's also available for Android which might complicate things.

This is an idea I've been thinking about for awhile. Because the app is written in Flutter, it isn't as easy to add a widget as if it were a native app. However, your post inspired me to do some research, and it seems like it isn't as difficult as I thought. I'll look into this some more and try it out.

@jbwharris I just submitted v1.6.0 which includes some widgets. Check them out when the build is approved; I think you'll like them 🙂

I didn't make a last scrobble widget since iOS doesn't give you a lot of control over how often the widget is updated and the data could quickly become stale. Instead, I made a widget that shows your overall stats and a widget that shows your top artists/albums/tracks. Let me know what you think; I'm always open to suggestions!
