Nothing-style year progress widget
A Nothing-style year progress widget shows how much of the year has passed as a percentage and a bar. Dot-matrix numerals, black, white and a single red dot. This page gives the exact colors, type settings and layers, with a preview drawn from the same values.

What a Nothing-style year progress widget shows
A year-progress widget is a gentle nudge: one bar that fills from 1 January to 31 December. The same layout works for the day, the week or a personal goal.
It is calculated from the date, so it is free, offline and needs no permission. WidgetCraft includes a free Day progress component, and a formula can stretch it to the year.
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 year progress widget in WidgetCraft
- Create a widget and open Canvas. Set the size to 360 × 180, the background to #0A0A0A and the corner radius to 26.
- Tap Add and choose Progress. Make it 312 wide, styled as ten short segments.
- Open Data and connect it to the day of the year with a range of 0 to 365.
- Color the progress #D71921 and keep the track faint.
- Add a Text layer for the percentage at size 54 in #FFFFFF, and a smaller one for the day count at size 13 in #8A8A8A.
- 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.
- Tap Save, then Add to home screen and resize the widget on your launcher if needed.

Tips for Nothing-style year progress widgets
- Import a free dot-matrix font such as Doto.
- Use red only as a single dot or one word.
- Show both the percentage and the day count so the bar has context.
- Use a segmented bar if you want each step to feel like a milestone.
- For a goal of your own, connect the bar to a counter instead of the date.
- Do not add color beyond the red accent.
- Do not use more than one dot-matrix line per widget; it gets hard to read.
