Tab Widgets v1.0 marks the official stable launch of the app. After months of beta development and refinement, v1.0 is the release we're confident putting in front of the world — a polished, reliable new tab dashboard with a growing library of useful widgets.

📅 Google Calendar Widget

Your schedule is now part of your dashboard. The Google Calendar widget connects to your Google account and displays your upcoming events so you never miss a meeting, deadline, or reminder.

Features

  • Displays events from your connected Google Calendar
  • Forwards to the correct date when you click an event
  • Supports multiple calendars
  • Refreshes automatically to stay current
  • Available to Pro subscribers

📋 Copy to Clipboard Widget

One click to copy anything. The Copy to Clipboard widget stores a piece of text that you need to paste frequently — an email address, a code snippet, an account number, a boilerplate reply — and copies it to your clipboard with a single click.

Perfect for:

  • Frequently-used passwords or codes (local only, never transmitted)
  • Canned responses for support or sales
  • Code snippets you paste into terminals repeatedly
  • Any text you find yourself typing over and over

📄 Multiple Custom Dashboard Pages

You can now create multiple named dashboard pages and switch between them with a single click. Use different pages for different contexts:

  • Work — calendar, links, Gmail, RSS feeds
  • Personal — weather, Spotify, sticky notes, photos
  • Finance — TradingView, OzBargain, countdown to payday

Pages are fully independent — each has its own widget layout, background, and settings.

🌙 Free Dark Mode

Dark mode is now free for all users. Toggle between light and dark themes from the appearance settings, no subscription required.

Other improvements in v1.0

  • World Clock — optimized animation rendering and reduced CPU usage; the order of clock hands has been corrected
  • Responsive widget styles — Hue Scene and Sticky Note widgets now adapt their layout for narrow widget dimensions
  • Duplicate widget — duplicating a widget now correctly copies the widget's size along with its settings
  • Toast notifications — improved stacking, dismiss behaviour, and double-toast prevention
  • Copy to Clipboard settings — the settings panel for the new widget allows updating the stored text at any time

What's included in the free tier

Tab Widgets is free to use with generous limits:

  • Up to 20 widgets per page
  • Up to 3 dashboard pages
  • All core widgets (weather, clock, sticky notes, links, RSS, and more)
  • Dark mode
  • Wallpaper backgrounds

Pro unlocks premium widgets (Gmail, Google Calendar, TradingView, Image uploads), unlimited widgets and pages, and cloud sync.
