Red to-do list widget

What a red to-do list widget shows

A to-do widget works when it is short. Three tasks, a clear title and a box to tap are enough; a long list belongs in an app.

WidgetCraft stores local tasks on the phone, which is a free source and needs no account or permission. Tapping a row can tick the task from the home screen.

How the red style shapes it

Red widgets are bold and energetic. This recipe sets white text on a deep red with a darker red for tracks; red and black is the classic alternative.

• Lists: White text with square white checkboxes.
• Text: Use white capitals; labels in pale rose.
