iOS-style to-do list widget

What an iOS-style 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 iOS-style style shapes it

This style follows the widgets people know from iPhones: white or dark rounded cards, a small colored title, a large bold number and tidy lists. It is a look, not an official Apple design.

• Lists: Show two or three rows with a colored bar at the left of each.
• Text: Put a small bold colored title in capitals at the top left, then the value in black.
