Widgets & Reminders

Widget snapshots and scheduled notifications keep soon-to-expire items visible without opening the app.

Why it helps

  • At-a-glance urgency view from lock screen/home screen widgets.
  • Deep-link actions jump directly into records inside the app.
  • Tracks saved vs. wasted counters for behavior feedback.

Typical flow

  • 1) Build snapshot

    Record data and saved/wasted stats are serialized into shared widget storage.

  • 2) Surface urgency

    Widget timeline sorts upcoming expirations and highlights near-term items.

  • 3) Trigger reminders

    Per-item notification schedules nudge users before expiry.

Linked systems

  • App Group shared data
  • Deep-link routing
  • UNUserNotificationCenter
