Wiesz KiedyThe “My places” and “Saved route” widgets: home in one tap
How to save home, work and other places in Wiesz Kiedy, add the “My places” widget that plans a trip in one tap, and the “Saved route” widget with your next departure.
Most trips are the same few routes: to work, home, to university, to your parents. Wiesz Kiedy has two widgets that shrink them to a single tap: My places and Saved route.
First: save your places
The widget shows the places saved in the planner, so start there:
- Open the Planner tab and type an address, stop or place name in the From or To field.
- Tap Add next to your saved places.
- Give it a name, e.g. “Gym” or “Grandma”, and save. The app takes the location from the field you have just filled in.
Home and Work are on the list from the start. Until you set them, the widget shows “set” next to them, and tapping opens the planner to fill them in. Press and hold a saved place to edit or delete it.
The “My places” widget
- Press and hold an empty spot on your home screen and choose Widgets.
- Find Wiesz Kiedy • My places and drag it onto the screen.
- Done: the widget shows up to four saved places.
Tap a place and Wiesz Kiedy opens the planner with a trip from where you are now to that place, with the next connections and when to leave. Nothing to type.
The “Saved route” widget
This one is handy when you take the same trip every day, say from work to home. It shows the next departure, e.g. “52 in 4 min”, and the number of changes.
- Plan the trip in the Planner tab.
- Tap Save route. It goes to the Saved routes list.
- Add the Wiesz Kiedy • Saved route widget to your home screen.
The widget uses the first saved route and refreshes every few minutes while the phone is awake. It works from the timetable, without live data, so tap it before you leave: the planner opens with that route and current delays.
Which widget?
| You want to | Widget |
|---|---|
| Know when the tram leaves from outside your home | My stop |
| Quickly plan trips to a few regular places | My places |
| See the next departure of one daily trip | Saved route |
You can have all three. The widgets are free and need no account.
Tip: your saved places and routes are also there without a widget. Press and hold the Wiesz Kiedy icon on your home screen and shortcuts appear that open the planner with that trip straight away.
