What a neo-brutalist 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 neo-brutalist style shapes it

Neo-brutalism is the playful cousin of brutalism: saturated yellow, pink or mint cards with thick black outlines and a solid black shadow shifted down and right.

Bars and rings: Outline every bar and ring in black and fill with a second bright color.
Numbers: Make numbers heavy and black on the bright card.

How to make a neo-brutalist battery widget in WidgetCraft

Create a widget and open Canvas. Set the size to 200 × 200, the background to #FFD43B and the corner radius to 10. Add a 3-point outline.
Tap Add and choose Ring. Set the diameter to 120 and the stroke to 12.
Open Data for the ring and connect it to Battery level with a range of 0 to 100.
Color the progress #FF6B6B and the track #4A4A4A at about 28% opacity.
Add a Battery layer in the center at size 44 in #000000, then a small Text label underneath.
Add the neo-brutalist ornament with Shape layers and move them below the other layers in Layers: a coral square in the top right and a blue circle in the bottom right, each with a 3-point black outline.
Tap Save, then Add to home screen and resize the widget on your launcher if needed.

Everything in this recipe works in the free version.

Tips for neo-brutalist battery widgets

Add a solid black shadow offset 6 points right and down, radius 0.
Outline everything at 3 points.
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 soft or blurred shadows.
Do not use pastel or muted color.
