What a Christmas to-do list widget shows

A to-do widget works when it is short. Three tasks, a clear title and a box to tap are enough; a long list belongs in an app.

WidgetCraft stores local tasks on the phone, which is a free source and needs no account or permission. Tapping a row can tick the task from the home screen.

How the Christmas style shapes it

Christmas widgets use pine green, berry red, cream and a little gold. A countdown to 25 December is the classic, joined by a festive clock and a gift list.

Lists: Use it as a gift list with red tick boxes.
Text: Use cream text on pine green with a festive display font for the title only.
