[Corinne Krych]

Another long-awaited feature  is widget. In iOS8 they come as Extensions. A cool article on 1Password and how they use extension in iOS8:

Session to watch ion in WWDC:
https://developer.apple.com/videos/wwdc/2014/
session 205, 217 “Creating extensions for iOS and OSX part1/2

A could blog post going in more details:

We could actually do a Share extension for our cookbook app Shoot’nShare that allow uploading pictures (to a bunch of social network) in the background if already logged in otherwise bring shoot app settings in foreground. Let me track that on Oauth2 Epic...
