I’m starting out with builds for iPhone and iPad. A Mac build is coming to TestFlight soon. Any feedback on how it feels to use would be much appreciated 🫶 You can learn more about Canvases and find the full user guide, including how to build widgets and update them with Shortcuts, at canvases.app

canvases.appCanvases - Build your own widgets in a visual editorCanvases gives you the pieces to build custom widgets in a visual editor, then keep them up to date automatically with Shortcuts.

A new Canvases build is out on TestFlight 🧪 - Example widgets now work across iOS 26 and iOS 27.
- New canvases are discarded if no changes were made.
- Fixed an issue where canvases could not be selected when adding a widget.
- Clarified message shown for unsupported prompts in intelligence.

Here’s a Canvases widget I use every day. My local gym has a gate that you open through their app when entering and leaving. The app is ugly and slow. So I made a widget that shows how many people are currently at the gym. Tapping it runs a shortcut that lets me check in or out and opens the gate.
