Coquette music widget

What a coquette music widget shows

A now-playing widget shows cover art, the track and artist, a progress line and three controls. It works with whichever app is playing, not one particular service.

Reading the current track needs Android's notification access and a media connection, which is a Pro feature in WidgetCraft. The controls send play, pause and skip to the app that is playing.

How the coquette style shapes it

Coquette widgets are delicate and romantic: ballet pink and cream, a deep rose for text, small ribbon bows, lace-like edges and an elegant italic serif.

• Photos: Use soft, slightly faded photos with a cream border and rounded corners.
• Text: Use an italic serif for titles and keep labels small in mauve.
• Bars and rings: Use thin ribbon-pink bars and finish one corner with a small bow.

How to make a coquette music widget in WidgetCraft

1. Create a widget and open Canvas. Set the size to 360 × 180, the background to #FFF4F4 and the corner radius to 22.
2. Open Data and set up the media connection; Android will ask for notification access.
3. Add an Image layer, 140 × 140 with radius 12, and connect it to the cover art.
4. Add two Text layers connected to the track title (size 20, #5E2433) and the artist (size 14, #B88A92).
5. Add a Progress layer as a thin 4-point bar in #E8879C, then three shapes for the controls. In Tap, assign previous, play/pause and next.
6. Add the coquette ornament with Shape layers and move them below the other layers in Layers: a small ribbon bow tied over the top edge at the center (two triangles, two short tails and a center dot) and a row of thin half-circles along the bottom edge like lace.
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.

Tips for coquette music widgets

• Add one bow per widget, not several.
• Keep the palette to pinks, cream and one warm gold.
• Long titles must truncate on one line; never let them wrap into the controls.
• Make each control at least 48 dp wide so it is easy to hit.
• The widget only shows a track while a media app has an active session.
• Do not use bold sans-serif fonts.
• Do not add bright, saturated colors.
