Shortcuts can be executed via the command-line, allowing you to set widget text programmatically.

For example, to set the text for widget 1, add [this shortcut](https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/6873c23a3cbb4718b23135e367d6be1b), and then run this:

#### When using the “Run Shortcut” action, why does tapping the widget first open the main app and then the Shortcuts app?

This is because of iOS limitations. A widget can only open its own app when a user taps it. And the only way to run a shortcut is to open the Shortcuts app using a special URL. So when you tap the widget, the widget opens the main app, and the main app then opens the Shortcuts app. It's not a very good user experience, but only Apple can fix this.
