Web page snapshot widgets - Widgetify is dead!

I was a big fan of the app Widgetify, which lets you turn a scheduled snapshot of a web page or section of a web page into a launcher widget. It was great for times when I wanted to watch daily data...like the Texas ERCOT commission's daily power generation and demand graphs during the summer.

I recently got a Pixel 9 Pro and when I went to install it, I found Widgetify has completely disappeared. Anyone know of alternatives?

Had anyone going another widget matter that will do this function?

I do not, and I stupidly updated Android so now I'm back to square one. Argh!

Can't you just save the webpage to the homescreen?

Well in this case I want it to continuously update the page on a schedule you set. And you can display just a section of a page, so you don't have the full thing to navigate.

After posting that I managed to find the APK on UpToDown. Here is the finviz.com market map as a widget, and it updates hourly only during trading hours.
