CarPlay widget requests

[Jefbos90]

Engine coolant temp, battery voltage if speed is 0 (useful to make sure battery isn’t getting too low to the point of needing a jump lol), gps speed and perhaps estimated range based on driving habits (my car says I got 650km range but that’s 450km if I drive with a lead foot. Will add more as I think of more haha

estimated driving range will be perfect!

Might be a stretch but a screen full of guages would be cool. Perhaps a user can favourite certain PID's and have those show up on a screen.

Something like this could be cool too imo: https://help.t1racedevelopment.com/supp ... tor-layout

Don’t think Apple would allow this since Apple is working with car companies to allow integrated digital gages to be changed using CarPlay itself. Ig what the dev can do is make it as a widget instead of a full screen gauge. That’s just my opinion though

Not sure if it’s allowed or not but the BimmerLink app does this for BMW’s

Going to spend the day testing this new feature tomorrow and then cut a release to Apple

Here's what the editing UX looks like on the iPhone:

Note that this release will only include Range, Charge, and Tire pressure widgets, but I'll be adding support for the Battery History, Latest Trip, and custom OBD parameter widgets as well in a future update.

Nice nice. Is there a TestFlight build I can try?

[jeff]

This is now live in v1.19.0 Release notes: viewtopic.php?t=196

More widgets to come. Still noodling on how to best add OBD widgets because it's important these widgets not be unnecessarily distracting.

For touge enthusiast (like me),
Live coolant temp, oil temp. intake air temp are useful infos.
