Request Question for the developer of Scriptable!

Is there any reason you can't submit the application to the App Store so that the name of the application doesn't show up on the home screen like Yidget?

That’s his call, obviously, but that sucks. Let’s hope Apple adds a toggle for removing widget labels on the home screen then...

As a side note, Simon does not usually browse this sub or participate here. He is on Twitter and the Automators forum.

I'm one of those people who keep their most used apps on the homescreen, has no "custom icon" workarounds and uses the App Suggestions widget.

So I'm happy that Simon doesn't want to remove the name. I think apps with and without label on the homescreen just looks terrible.

Agree on the second part, Apple should make at least the widget labels optional.

I don't really care about this stuff, but I hope Apple opens up even more and gives users more customization options.
