Nothing-style quote widget

What a Nothing-style quote widget shows

A quote widget is pure typography, so the style shows more clearly here than anywhere else. Line length, line spacing and the size of the quotation mark do the design work.

It is plain text you type yourself: free, offline and with no permission. Change the words whenever you like.

How the Nothing-style style shapes it

Nothing-style widgets copy the dot-matrix look of Nothing phones: numerals built from dots, strict black and white, small technical labels and one red accent. A dot-matrix font does most of the work.

• Text: Use a dot-matrix font for headings and a plain mono for small labels in capitals.

How to make a Nothing-style quote widget in WidgetCraft

1. Create a widget and open Canvas. Set the size to 360 × 180, the background to #0A0A0A and the corner radius to 26.
2. Add a Text layer and type your quote. Set the font to Doto, the size to 17 and the color to #FFFFFF.
3. Press return where you want the line to break, and set the alignment to left.
4. Add a second Text layer with just an opening quotation mark at size 54 in #D71921.
5. Add the author on its own Text layer at size 12 in #8A8A8A.
6. Add the Nothing-style ornament with Shape layers and move them below the other layers in Layers: a row of small dots along the bottom, the first six in red.
7. 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 Nothing-style quote widgets

• Import a free dot-matrix font such as Doto.
• Use red only as a single dot or one word.
• Keep quotes under about 12 words so the text can stay large.
• Break lines by meaning, not wherever the text happens to wrap.
• Always credit the author on a separate, smaller line.
• Do not add color beyond the red accent.
• Do not use more than one dot-matrix line per widget; it gets hard to read.
