Nothing-style step counter widget

What a Nothing-style step counter widget shows

A step widget shows one number and how close it is to a goal. A ring on one side and the count on the other reads well at a glance.

Steps come from Health Connect, which needs a compatible phone, your permission and a fitness connection (a Pro feature in WidgetCraft). The numbers are whatever your phone or watch has recorded; the widget does not count steps itself.

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.

• Bars and rings: Build progress from rows of small dots or short segments.
• Numbers: Set the number in the dot-matrix font as large as the widget allows.

How to make a Nothing-style step counter 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. Open Data and connect Health Connect, allowing access to steps.
3. Tap Add and choose Ring. Set the diameter to 104 and the stroke to 9, and connect it to steps with a range from 0 to your goal.
4. Color the progress #D71921.
5. Add a Text layer connected to the step count at size 38 in #FFFFFF, plus a label and your goal 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.

The layout and styling are free. The live data connection for this widget needs WidgetCraft Pro, a one-time purchase.

Tips for Nothing-style step counter widgets

• Import a free dot-matrix font such as Doto.
• Use red only as a single dot or one word.
• Show the goal next to the count so the ring has meaning.
• Step data can lag by a few minutes depending on the app that records it.
• This is an activity display, not medical advice.
• Do not add color beyond the red accent.
• Do not use more than one dot-matrix line per widget; it gets hard to read.
