ImageTracker lets you add image widgets to your Home Screen with live images from the web which update with realtime information. You can use it to track a weather cameras, various charts and figures, or anything live image you can think of!
ImageTracker is the spiritual successor of SlothCam, the original webcam app for Dashboard, MacOS, and iOS, and it offers similar features to SlothCam, but in a modern Home Screen Widget format.
With this app you can create widgets using any live image from the web (jpeg, jpg, png URLs). Whether it’s a satellite image of the Earth, a real-time weather forecast, space weather charts showing aurora data, or a live webcam feed, this app allows you to create dynamic widgets with live content from the web.
To install a Home Screen Widget, tap and hold on your Home Screen until the icons jiggle and press + to add a widget. Once you add the widget, you can tap it while in Home Screen edit mode and add a custom URL to the widget.
Features:
•Customizable Widgets: Place any image URL into a Home Screen widget on your iPhone or iPad or Mac.
•Live Updates: Widgets refresh periodically to display the latest data, ensuring your information is always current.
•Versatile Use Cases: Ideal for displaying weather maps, NASA satellite images, live webcams, space weather charts, aurora borealis data, and more. Any image published to the web can be used!
•Easily share images from widgets with friends.
ImageTracker is free to use. Purchasing the app removes the in-app ad banner and the nag message that appears on the widget, and allows you to customize widgets with title text for each webcam image.

The ImageTracker app is a fantastic tool for anyone needing quick and easy access to webcam feeds. I enjoy putting a few tiles of live camera feeds that the app refreshes with an image every so often.The user interface is sleek and intuitive, making it simple to add and remove webcams on your screen. The app’s low resource usage runs smoothly and doesn’t bog down data or the system. Overall, this is a must-have app for anyone looking to monitor webcams with a widget format that continuously updates the feed.

One of a kind app

This is a very interesting app because it’s the only one I found that lets you put webcam images on widgets. I like the default satellite map, but I’ve also included several cameras around town so I can see traffic conditions, weather conditions in the harbor and other things. I find it super cool to be scrolling on your home screen and see a live image from a webcam!
It works as it says, effortlessly

I'm happy to know you've found the app useful. That's precisely the use case I had in mind (that and also showing charts/data published on the web in image format). Thanks for your review!
Super useful

This app is a super useful way to display live webcams on my Home Screen. I love the default satellite image of the earth but I also use it to check on a snow cam at my my favorite ski resort.
