Bauhaus analog clock widget

What a Bauhaus analog clock widget shows

An analog clock reads as a shape rather than as numbers, which makes it the most decorative way to show the time. WidgetCraft has a dedicated analog layer where the dial, markers and each hand can be styled separately.

It uses the phone's clock, needs no permission and works offline. A 2 × 2 space is enough.

How the Bauhaus style shapes it

Bauhaus widgets are built from basic shapes in red, yellow and blue on an off-white ground. Circles become dials, bars become progress and type stays geometric and plain.

• Bars and rings: Build the whole widget from a circle, a square and a bar, each in a different primary color.
• Numbers: Place numbers inside or next to a solid circle or square so the shape frames them.

How to make a Bauhaus analog clock widget in WidgetCraft

1. Create a widget and open Canvas. Set the size to 200 × 200, the background to #F4EFE3 and the corner radius to 4.
2. Tap Add and choose Analog. Size it to fill the canvas with a margin of about 28.
3. Open the clock details and set the dial to #E8E0CE with a 4-point ring in #1B1B1B.
4. Set twelve markers: quarter-hours thicker in #1B1B1B, the rest thinner in #6D6A62.
5. Style the hour hand (short, width 6) and minute hand (long, width 3.5) in #1B1B1B, turn the second hand off and color the center cap #D93025.
6. Add the Bauhaus ornament with Shape layers and move them below the other layers in Layers: a large yellow circle (Shape) in the top right corner and a 30 × 30 blue square in the bottom right, both behind the content.
7. Tap Save, then Add to home screen and resize the widget on your launcher if needed.

Everything in this recipe works in the free version.

Tips for Bauhaus analog clock widgets

• Limit color to red, yellow, blue, black and cream.
• Let one large shape dominate each widget.
• Keep the hour hand clearly shorter and thicker than the minute hand.
• Twelve markers are easier to read than sixty; add numerals only at 12, 3, 6 and 9 if at all.
• Leave the second hand off: launchers refresh widgets about once a minute.
• Do not use gradients or shadows.
• Do not round shapes halfway; use full circles or square corners.
