Apple HIG: System Experiences

Check for .claude/apple-design-context.md before asking questions. Use existing context and only ask for information not already covered.

Key Principles

General

  1. Glanceable, immediate value. System experiences bring your app's most important content to surfaces the user sees without launching your app. Design for seconds of attention.

  2. Respect platform context. A Lock Screen widget has different constraints than a Home Screen widget. A complication is far smaller than a top shelf item.

Widgets

  1. Show relevant information, not everything. Display the most useful subset, updated appropriately.

  2. Support multiple sizes with distinct layouts. Each size should be a thoughtful design, not a scaled version of another.

  3. Deep-link on tap. Take users to the relevant content, not the app's root screen.
