? Scriptable FordPass Widget (iOS, iPad, MacOS)

[generaltso]

I'm more inclined to think that the FP app is not updating the time elapsed.
the script is working with the data it has available which is the same exact data used by the FP app
It's weird that it's spot on with FP app and suddenly they skew

Yeah, something happens when the age of the data hits 1 hour that makes the last refresh timestamp reset. But FordPass must not be using that because it continues counting correctly. Very odd.

Well, those steps are included in the instructions

Also, for anyone still copying/pasting the script every time there's an update, I recommend you follow @tonesto7 's note about saving the script file to iCloud. Overwriting the file there is easier than copying and pasting since Safari doesn't natively support Select All.

I tried to save the file but apparently need to be on a computer to do that. I use an iPad. I just searched and found a way to add “select all” to Safari instead.

Long press on the link to the file and select Download linked file.

Long press on the link to the file and select Download linked file.

I tried that but it downloads the HTML page instead of the file.

It saves the .js file for me. Is this the link you’re using?

It worked when I just tried it from this page. When I tried it before I was on the Github directory page. Thanks. I‘ll do it that way from now on.

Thank you for doing all this work!! I can’t wait to try it out.

If I could throw out a UI suggestion?
Could you simplify the door and window status to just a single “Closed” status when all are closed, and only break them out to individual statuses when one or more are open. This would just simplify the UI as most of the time your windows and doors are closed.

I've been updating that way. Use open with and open the .js file with TextEdit, paste new script and save. It's easier.

I just wanted to share that I've tracked down the issue with distance and pressure units not reflecting your Fordpass settings.

I will have a release available in the morning to resolve this issue and a couple more

The script is working so far now for me.
Except the widgets have problems.
I can only use the small one.
Middle and large aren't working.
Will provide screenshots at evening (CET) when usefull.

Same here, only the small one works, large and medium ones won't show up when selected in Scriptable.

I almost have an installer tool working which means no more copying the script anymore.
You will install a single script FordWidgetTool and it will install and update to the latest version on every run.

I hope to have it ready for testing by the end of the day today.

I wish I could say I am savvy with this stuff but alas, I am not. I did get the medium widget up though, so thank you!!!
On that note I’m posting to say I did initially have the same issue Sam mentioned about not being able to find the widget on my Home Screen, not even the widget for scriptable.
So a little digging and I went in to my settings, settings for scriptable app and changed the language ( i chose German) and low and behold it popped up as a choice for a widget I could add now. I don’t know why this worked but just something I found online and it worked in case it helps someone else.
