Purple year progress widget
A purple year progress widget shows how much of the year has passed as a percentage and a bar. Lavender to deep violet with a dreamy feel. This page gives the exact colors, type settings and layers, with a preview drawn from the same values.
What a purple 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 purple style shapes it
Purple widgets use lavender backgrounds, deep plum text and a bright violet accent. They look gentle in light tones and dramatic in dark ones.
- Bars and rings: Use violet bars on a lilac track.
- Numbers: Keep numbers plum and semi-bold.
