Has anyone dipped their toes into the new Labs widget? Activated it yesterday and I'm not totally sold on the implementation and usefulness as it is. Main problem seems that the widget has to be selected in the split-screen for everything to kick in. This leads to a delay on start up (which is inevitable since it relies on the 3G connection to trigger events) and also limits the screen itself: you can only view the status of the IFTTT recipes, so no arrow display for navigation or whatever you're used to on the right side. I haven't used IFTTT before, but it would seem a lot of the BMW options for recipes can be done using a geo-fence, negating the need for labs.
Are there other observations or tips to use it better?
