I sent an email to SportsCenter app support and got this reply, "We appreciate our fans support and feedback. This widget sounds like a great idea and I will be happy to send this request to our development team" I didn't even reply lol

bug / glitchess

widgets in my notification center BARELY work...

The weather channel widget is the only one that isn't tooooo glitchy.

The only other one I have on now besides that is yahoo news digest and it never works. will just show nothing or says can't upload. Anyone else have this problem?

Well ********** great! Apple shutdown ALL launcher widgets because they launch other apps. WTF does that even mean? Weather launches a weather app.

So basically back to fart apps, but widget fart apps now (kidding of course).

I don't get it, it was so exciting of the idea of widgets, upgraded my ipad to iOS8. Now all I'm stuck with was a false bait and switch promise of functionality that was taken away. And all that is left is a really buggy, crashing, non-rotating OS.

Well, no more launchers guys. A+ apple.

Editing my original angry rant. Realized why Apple doesn't want other apps to have access to a full list of installed apps and ability to launch them. I can see that being a huge security hole. I mean apps can then technically harvest everything you have installed, send it out and know what apps you use, etc. Take it back, I rather have privacy non-malware.
