Brutalist habit tracker widget
A brutalist habit tracker widget shows today's habits with a ring that fills as you complete them. Heavy type, hard edges, thick outlines and no softening. This page gives the exact colors, type settings and layers, with a preview drawn from the same values.

What a brutalist habit tracker widget shows
A habit tracker widget keeps a daily routine in view: water, reading, a walk. A ring shows how much of today is done and a short list lets you tick each habit from the home screen.
Habits are stored on the phone in WidgetCraft's Tasks, notes & habits section, a free source with no account or permission. Each habit can have a daily goal, such as 8 glasses, and the days it repeats; the app keeps the streak for you.
How the brutalist style shapes it
Brutalist widgets look deliberately raw: oversized condensed type, square corners, thick black outlines and one loud color. Nothing is rounded or shaded, which makes them very readable at a glance.
- Lists: Separate rows with full-width black rules and use square checkboxes.
- Bars and rings: Draw progress as solid blocks or a thick bar with square ends, never rounded.

How to make a brutalist habit tracker widget in WidgetCraft
- Open Tasks, notes & habits and add your habits. Give each a daily goal (for example 8 glasses) and the days it repeats.
- Create a widget and open Canvas. Set the size to 360 × 180, the background to #FBFAF4 and the corner radius to 0. Add a 4-point outline.
- Tap Add and choose Habit progress ring. Set the diameter to 100, the stroke to 9 and the progress color to #FF6B2C.
- Add a Text layer inside the ring for the count of completed habits at size 24 in #111111.
- Add Today's habits as a list on the right, limited to three rows, with text at size 15 in #111111. A tap on a row marks progress.
- Add the brutalist ornament with Shape layers and move them below the other layers in Layers: a strip of black diagonal hazard stripes, 10 points tall, along the bottom edge.
- Tap Save, then Add to home screen and resize the widget on your launcher if needed.

Tips for brutalist habit tracker widgets
- Keep corner radius at 0 and outlines at 3 to 4 points.
- Use one loud accent against black and off-white.
- Track three habits or fewer on one widget; more rows get too small to tap.
- Give counted habits a unit, such as glasses or pages, so the numbers make sense.
- A habit only counts on the days it is scheduled, so check the days if one never appears.
- Do not add shadows, gradients or transparency.
- Do not use light font weights.
