iOS 27 introduces a variety of new Home Screen widgets for apps, and Apple Calendar gets my standout favorite. Ahead of the upcoming iPhone Ultra and its extra-large display, iOS 27 adds a new size of widgets that’s perfect for the device.

Extra-large widgets are available for many Apple apps in iOS 27, and offer a lot of value no matter which iPhone you’re using. The larger widget size lets you see more information at once. My favorite of the bunch is from Apple Calendar. Calendar actually gets two extra-large widgets: List (compact view of upcoming events) and Up Next.

Calendar’s extra-large widgets take up the equivalent of a 4×6 grid of apps—about the size of a full Home Screen page. But if you don’t want to dedicate a full Home Screen page, utilizing the Today view is a great alternative. With a single widget on my Home Screen or Today view, I can now see upcoming events covering a good portion of the week ahead.

I love getting an extensive preview of what my next few days will hold without needing to manually open the Calendar app. Will you use Calendar’s new extra-large widgets in iOS 27? What other new widgets are your favorites?
