Dune metrics on your home screen, what do you think?

I’ve been experimenting with a widget-style way to surface Dune data on mobile. It shows saved query results and API usage as widgets across iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch.

Curious if anyone else would find something like this useful, and what metrics you’d want to keep visible at a glance.

If you keep opening Vercel just to look at usage, this widget might save you a few taps and it’s free :)

I kept opening Vercel just to glance at usage, so I put together a small widget that surfaces the main numbers on my home screen.

It shows deploys, success rate, failure rate, build duration, and errored deploys in one place across iPhone and iPad.

Curious which metric people would want to see first in a widget like this, and whether deploy count or success rate is the most useful primary metric.

*Self-Promotion* PulseKit: home screen widgets for key metrics - App Store Connect

I made PulseKit to make App Store Connect easier to check without opening the dashboard every time.

It turns key metrics into home screen widgets so you can glance at downloads, proceeds, and conversion rate from your device.

What iPhone apps do you check every day without opening the app?

I’m curious which iPhone apps people check every day without actually opening them.

For me, widgets are only useful if they save a real tap. What apps do that for you, and which ones feel pointless as widgets?

App Store Connect widgets for iPhone, iPad, and Mac

I wanted a quicker way to check App Store Connect without opening the dashboard every time, so I made PulseKit.

It shows key metrics like downloads, proceeds, and conversion rate as widgets on your home screen.

If anyone’s interested, I’d love feedback on which metrics are actually useful in a small widget.

Making an App Store Connect widget for the iPhone home screen

I’ve been working on a home screen widget for App Store Connect so I can check key metrics without opening the dashboard every time.

The hardest part has been figuring out which numbers are actually worth showing in such a small space without making it feel cluttered. I’ve been iterating on that balance and trying to keep it useful at a glance.

Would be interested to hear what other people think is the right set of metrics for something like this.

What metrics are actually useful in a glanceable analytics widget?

I’ve been experimenting with a home screen analytics widget and ran into a simple problem: what’s the smallest set of metrics that’s still genuinely useful at a glance?

I ended up using unique visitors, pageviews, bounce rate, visit duration, and views per visit, but I’m not sure that’s the right balance between signal and clutter.

Curious how others here think about designing for quick scanning versus deeper analysis.

Home Screen widgets for App Store Connect

I made PulseKit to make App Store Connect easier to check at a glance. It shows downloads, proceeds, and conversion rate as widgets on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. It also supports Supabase, Cloudflare, and DigitalOcean.

Tech Stack
Xcode, Swift, WidgetKit, Figma, Claude Code, Codex

Development Challenge
The hardest part was making the widgets feel useful without becoming noisy. I wanted the data to be readable in a split second, so I spent most of the time on layout, hierarchy, and making refresh behavior feel reliable.

AI Disclosure
AI-assisted. I used Claude Code and Codex to help move faster, but the app and design decisions were made by me.

App Store Connect as a home screen widget!

As an indie dev you're constantly switching between dashboards just to check if your numbers moved. PulseKit keeps your key metrics passively visible as widgets, App Store Connect, Supabase, Cloudflare, DigitalOcean and more.

No more tab switching. Your numbers are just there.

You asked for it, Supabase custom SQL queries are now supported in PulseKit

A while back someone from the Supabase team asked if we'd support custom SQL queries, just like the dashboard snippets. We listened.

You can now run your own SQL queries and see the results as widgets on your home screen. Track user signups, custom metrics, whatever matters to you.

Curious what queries you'd use it for?

I kept opening the DigitalOcean dashboard just to glance at my numbers, so I built a widget that sits passively on my home screen. Works across iPhone, iPad and Mac.

Tracks App Performance, Droplet Performance and account Cost.

Curious if anyone else would find this useful, and what metrics you'd want to see?
