"/design/patterns/widgets.html">Widgets</a> are
|
|
an essential aspect of home screen customization. They are "at-a-glance"
|
|
views of an app's <strong>most important data and features</strong>,
|
|
instantly available from the user's home screen.

</p>
|

<p>
|
|
Use widgets to <strong>remind users</strong> about important information in
|
|
your apps and games, even when your apps are closed. For instance, if you
|
|
have a news app, showcase the latest headlines.

<p><strong>Tip:</strong>
|
|
Make your widgets useful — provide in-app information like news, game status,
|
|
or upcoming deadlines. Widgets should serve as more than a launcher icon.</p>
