What a Bauhaus year progress widget shows

A year-progress widget is a gentle nudge: one bar that fills from 1 January to 31 December. The same layout works for the day, the week or a personal goal.

It is calculated from the date, so it is free, offline and needs no permission. WidgetCraft includes a free Day progress component, and a formula can stretch it to the year.

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 year progress widget in WidgetCraft

Create a widget and open Canvas. Set the size to 360 × 180, the background to #F4EFE3 and the corner radius to 4.
Tap Add and choose Progress. Make it 312 wide, styled as a thick 12-point bar with rounded ends.
Open Data and connect it to the day of the year with a range of 0 to 365.
Color the progress #D93025 and keep the track faint.
Add a Text layer for the percentage at size 68 in #1B1B1B, and a smaller one for the day count at size 13 in #6D6A62.
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.
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 year progress widgets

Limit color to red, yellow, blue, black and cream.
Let one large shape dominate each widget.
Show both the percentage and the day count so the bar has context.
Use a segmented bar if you want each step to feel like a milestone.
For a goal of your own, connect the bar to a counter instead of the date.
Do not use gradients or shadows.
Do not round shapes halfway; use full circles or square corners.
