Monochrome habit tracker widget
A monochrome habit tracker widget shows today's habits with a ring that fills as you complete them. Black, white and greys only, with contrast doing all the work. This page gives the exact colors, type settings and layers, with a preview drawn from the same values.

What a monochrome habit tracker widget shows
A habit tracker widget keeps a daily routine in view: water, reading, a walk. A ring shows how much of today is done and a short list lets you tick each habit from the home screen.
Habits are stored on the phone in WidgetCraft's Tasks, notes & habits section, a free source with no account or permission. Each habit can have a daily goal, such as 8 glasses, and the days it repeats; the app keeps the streak for you.
How the monochrome style shapes it
Monochrome widgets use no color at all. Black, white and two greys create the hierarchy, which makes any wallpaper work and gives the home screen a consistent, graphic look.
- Lists: Finished rows turn grey with a strikethrough; open rows stay black.
- Bars and rings: Fill progress in black on a light grey track, or use segmented blocks.

How to make a monochrome habit tracker widget in WidgetCraft
- Open Tasks, notes & habits and add your habits. Give each a daily goal (for example 8 glasses) and the days it repeats.
- Create a widget and open Canvas. Set the size to 360 × 180, the background to #FFFFFF and the corner radius to 16.
- Tap Add and choose Habit progress ring. Set the diameter to 100, the stroke to 9 and the progress color to #0E0E0E.
- Add a Text layer inside the ring for the count of completed habits at size 24 in #0E0E0E.
- Add Today's habits as a list on the right, limited to three rows, with text at size 15 in #0E0E0E. A tap on a row marks progress.
- Tap Save, then Add to home screen and resize the widget on your launcher if needed.

Tips for monochrome habit tracker widgets
- Check that black and white swap cleanly if you make a dark version.
- Use two greys at most.
- Track three habits or fewer on one widget; more rows get too small to tap.
- Give counted habits a unit, such as glasses or pages, so the numbers make sense.
- A habit only counts on the days it is scheduled, so check the days if one never appears.
- Do not add a colored accent; it breaks the effect.
- Do not use low-contrast grey on grey for values.
