iGizmoz is a new application available in the App Store that will bring widgets to your iPhone without having to jailbreak it.
There are currently a few applications such as Cydget and SmartScreen that let you set up widgets on your iPhone but the downside, if we can call this a downside, is that you have to be jailbroken.
iGizmoz is legit and 100% Apple approved. It comes with 11 customizable widgets:
- Calendar
- Countdown
- Flashlight
- Search tool
- Slideshow
- Speed dial
- Sticky notes
- Stopwatch
- Swinging creature
- Tic tac toe game
- World clock

Sticky Notes: Skicky Notes are little notes that display short messages. Just tap on the note to add a message. Double tapping on the note allows you to choose from ten different note styles.
Calendar: The Calendar widget displays the current month with the current date being highlighted in blue. You can scroll through previous and upcoming months using the arrows on either side of the Month. This is the only widget that is not customizable.
World Clock: The World Clock displays the current time for a specific time zone. You can choose from six clock styles and from a complete list of time zines. You can also choose to turn on/off the seconds hand. The nice thing about this widget is that you can add more than one allowing one to display your current time zone and another to display an alternative time zone.
Search Tool: The Search Tool widget allows you to quickly search without taking you out of iGizmoz. You can choose to have the widget search Google, Google Images, Yahoo, Wikipedia or Merriam Webster Dictionary. You can also choose whether you would like the search history showed or not.
Speed Dial: The Speed Dial widget allows you to quickly call or text a contact. You are able to create a Speed Dial widget for anyone in your Contact List. You can then choose whether you would like the widget will call or text the person. It will automatically pull in the image you have assigned to that Contact. Double tap on the image part of the widget to call/text… double tap the bottom of the widget to get into the settings for the widget. Note: Using this widget will take you out of iGizmoz.
Countdown: The Countdown widget displays a running countdown of number of days until a specific event. This widget comes with two countdown styles. It allows you to choose your own event or choose from a list of pre-selected events. You also turn on/off an Hours display.
Stopwatch: The Stopwatch widget displays a running timer. In the settings for this widget, you can choose it have it display as a countdown time.. counting down from a specified amount of time or as Stopper which allows you to start the widget timer and then stop it and start it again if necessary (similar to a stopwatch).
Slideshow: Slideshow is a widget that displays a slideshow of images from your Photo Library. This widget allows you to choose images from your Photo Library, select a transition style from the four provided and customize the speed of the slideshow.
Flashlight: Flashlight is a light widget that allows the screen to become a “flashlight.” There are four flashlight colors available; white, yellow, red and blue. Just tap the string on the light and watch your your screen illuminate… tap the string again to turn off the light.
Tic Tac Toe Game: This is your basic game of Tic Tac Toe… play the game right in the widget. You can choose to play against the computer or 2 player as well as choose between two difficult mods.
Swinging Creature: The Swinging Creature widget will swing and sway as you tilt your iPhone. A fun little widget that allows you to choose from four creatures.
