Describe the bug

A simple question: how to use the widgets of the installed apps in LiveContainer? For example, i can't find Spotify or YouTube widgets. Is this normal? Or it's not possible with LiveContainer installation?

I searched but i can't find an answer. Thanks

What version of LiveContainer are you using?

3.1.0

Widgets, control center etc, app extensions in general are not supported. Apps installed in LiveContainer is not visible outside of its sandbox, and LiveContainer doesn’t have permission to dynamically register app extensions, not to mention they take up App ID.

@khanhduytran0 would it be possible to make installed apps accessible to each other within livecontainer ?! Audio apps and Auv3 plug-ins
