Since I’m working from home now (as most of us are I’m sure) I’ve been using my iPad a lot. Especially now that I have the Magic Keyboard case (it’s amazing btw.) So I now am looking for a note taking app where I can create to-do lists directly from the home screen/widget instead of having to go into the app directly. Something I can see while I do my work. Many thanks!

I thought that Fantastical had a feature like this.

Widgets on iOS don’t support keyboard input. From Apple’s documentation:

“Because user interaction with Today widgets is quick and limited, you should design a simple, streamlined UI that highlights the information users are interested in. In general, it’s a good idea to limit the number of interactive items in a widget. In particular, note that iOS widgets don’t support keyboard entry.”
