Dark battery widget
A dark battery widget shows your charge level as a ring with the percentage in the middle. True black backgrounds with white type for OLED screens. This page gives the exact colors, type settings and layers, with a preview drawn from the same values.
What a dark battery widget shows
A battery widget turns one number into a shape you can read without thinking. A ring that fills clockwise is the clearest form, with the percentage inside it.
Battery level is a free, built-in source in WidgetCraft and needs no permission. The widget refreshes when the charge changes or the charger is connected.
How the dark style shapes it
Dark widgets sit on pure black so they merge with an AMOLED wallpaper. White text, one bright accent and very little else: sharp to read and easy on the battery of an OLED display.
- Bars and rings: Draw the track in dark grey and only the filled part in the accent color.
- Numbers: Let the number glow in white against black and keep it medium weight.

Tips for dark battery widgets
- Use #000000 so the widget disappears into a black wallpaper.
- Keep one accent color for the whole screen.
- Start the ring at the top and fill clockwise; other start points are harder to read.
- Keep the track visible at low opacity so an almost-empty ring still looks like a ring.
- A battery widget shows the phone only. Earbuds and watches need their maker's own widget.
- Do not use pure white for long text; off-white is easier to read.
- Do not add borders around black widgets on a black wallpaper.
