Ford Widget Tool

I saw this widget posted awhile back somewhere and curious if anyone has used it? Seems pretty cool that is shows all of the info in one spot that the FordPass app doesn't show, but not sure about linking my vehicles info to an unknown developer. Has anyone used the Ford Widget Tool?

Looks pretty cool, but not really interested in handing over a random script my login credentials + VIN

Exactly. That was my thought as well. Seems too good to be true. Would be nice to have a more informative app though. FordPass seems really simple and clunky to me.

I have been using this widget for 6+ months on my 2021 F150 Lariat. It's great, and I don't have any concern with the way the developer uses the VIN and login crews. I haven't looked recently, but it was open source code so you can see what is being done with the variables and the API calls used. In the early days I made some of my own edits to change the Units of the tire pressures until the developer fixed it in a later release. It's safe to use IMO.
