Botanical step counter widget

What a botanical step counter widget shows

A step widget shows one number and how close it is to a goal. A ring on one side and the count on the other reads well at a glance.

Steps come from Health Connect, which needs a compatible phone, your permission and a fitness connection (a Pro feature in WidgetCraft). The numbers are whatever your phone or watch has recorded; the widget does not count steps itself.

How the botanical style shapes it

Botanical widgets bring plants onto the home screen: deep and soft greens, leaf photographs and a calm serif or sans. They pair naturally with nature wallpapers.

• Bars and rings: Use thin green bars and rings that suggest growth.
• Numbers: Keep numbers in dark fern with a small moss label.

How to make a botanical step counter widget in WidgetCraft

1. Create a widget and open Canvas. Set the size to 360 × 180, the background to #E9EFE4 and the corner radius to 22.
2. Open Data and connect Health Connect, allowing access to steps.
3. Tap Add and choose Ring. Set the diameter to 104 and the stroke to 5, and connect it to steps with a range from 0 to your goal.
4. Color the progress #3F7D4E.
5. Add a Text layer connected to the step count at size 46 in #1F3327, plus a label and your goal in #6E8574.
6. Add the botanical ornament with Shape layers and move them below the other layers in Layers: three leaf shapes (tall ovals) fanning up from the bottom right corner in fern green at about 55% opacity.
7. Tap Save, then Add to home screen and resize the widget on your launcher if needed.

The layout and styling are free. The live data connection for this widget needs WidgetCraft Pro, a one-time purchase.
