With the new IOS being out on Apple and them Introducing “Widget” feature it would be awesome if Ring could do a widget where it links straight to our own cameras and do a live feed etc :)

    +1 Would be great to get a widget for quick access to the cameras instead of opening the app and waiting for everything to pull up.

      I’ve only just noticed this has been added! This should be made clear on the ring app Also can we add more sizes like other apps do, it’s great having the widget, it’s quicker than going through the app, or long pressing on the app which gives you options of cameras, rather then a selected choice of cameras I’d prefer. Different size widgets would be better, you could have the big size widget, and have 4 cameras to select easily.

        @Blujelly Here is how I get around it. 1) Create a Smart Stack (Small Square) widget. 2) Leave Customisation. 3) Hold down on the Smart Stack and Edit Stack. 4) Remove all the default widgets inside and turn off Smart Rotate and Widget Suggestions. 5) Select the Plus button at the top-left and search for Ring and Add Widget. 6) Click on the widget once and change Select a Device to the camera you want. 7) Repeat this for your three others cameras. 8) Leave customisation Now you have a little square where you can quickly swipe between your cameras and click on them. I use this to swipe between my Front Door, Front Floodlight, Rear Camera and my smart lock. I'll open the app if I need any of my other cameras.

        Hi neighbors, a new Live View widget is on a slow rollout for iOS and Android soon. This widget will allow you to easily access the Live View for your Ring Doorbell or Camera. You can find more information in our Community post [here](https://community.ring.com/t/feature-release-live-view-widget/193016). Thank you for your continued feedback, and we hope you enjoy this new widget!
