Recently, I found that iOS 14, a desktop gadget, is very popular. Just stroll around Weibo and you will see iPhone users showing off their desktops. You know, Android has already had this function, but I haven't seen anyone show off Android widgets. So, what's so special about the widget function of iOS 14?

Customizable

Due to the closed iOS system, the only way for iPhone users to show their personality without jailbreaking is to change their mobile phone wallpaper. Now, the majority of iPhone users have another way to show their personality, that is, customize their own desktop gadgets.

Many iPhone users like to customize gadgets into their favorite styles, such as putting their favorite pictures on gadgets, or changing the color of gadgets to make them more consistent with the style of desktop applications. In short, the personalization of desktop gadgets meets the various customization needs of iPhone users.

Experience to the extreme

Android and iOS have completely different attitudes towards new features. Android hopes to add new functions as soon as possible to meet the diverse needs of users. However, the pursuit of Android system is too fast, which leads to the imperfection of new functions, and users often stop using this function after trying it for a period of time.

The iOS system is completely different. It will not rush to push new features to users. If you don't take the experience to the extreme, it won't be used by users. The new desktop widget function of iOS 14 is far more beautiful, functional and customized than the small plug-in of Android system, which will naturally attract more people to use it.

Developers strongly support

Apple has a natural advantage-attraction. When Apple introduces a new feature, it can always attract a large number of developers to improve this new feature. As soon as the new desktop widget function was launched, APP developers launched various widgets that can be customized in the first time.

Some apps won the first place in the Apple Store download list in a short time because their highly customized gadgets are very popular. With the strong support of developers, the functions of desktop widgets are becoming richer and richer, the experience is becoming more and more perfect, and more and more people are using them.
