Gold to-do list widget

What a gold 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 gold style shapes it

Gold widgets pair deep black with warm metallic gold and ivory text. Thin gold rules, an elegant capital serif and lots of dark space make them look expensive.

• Lists: Separate rows with fine gold rules.
• Text: Use spaced capitals in a classical serif for labels.

How to make a gold to-do list widget in WidgetCraft

1. Create a widget and open Canvas. Set the size to 360 × 200, the background to #0F0E0C and the corner radius to 14. Add a 1-point outline.
2. Add a Text layer for the title "Today" at size 22 in #F3EAD3.
3. Tap Add and choose List. In Data, choose your local task list and limit it to three rows.
4. Set the row text to size 16 in #F3EAD3 and the checkbox to 18 × 18 with radius 4.

6. Add the gold ornament with Shape layers and move them below the other layers in Layers: a second hairline gold frame inset 7 points, with a small gold diamond on its top edge.
7. Tap Save, then Add to home screen and resize the widget on your launcher if needed.
