What a flat 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 flat style shapes it

Flat widgets use blocks of solid color with white text and simple shapes. There is no depth at all, which keeps them crisp at any size and quick to build.
