Space calendar widget

What a space calendar widget shows

A calendar widget answers two questions: what day is it, and what is next. The date sits in a bold block on the left and the next event takes the right side.

The date works with no permission. Showing events needs Android's calendar permission and a calendar connection, which is a Pro feature in WidgetCraft. Without it you can still build the date block on its own for free.

How the space style shapes it

Space widgets use deep navy and violet with white text and tiny star dots. Circles become planets and orbits, which suits clocks, countdowns and step rings.

• Numbers: Center the number in starlight white.
• Lists: Mark rows with tiny star dots.

How to make a space calendar widget in WidgetCraft

1. Create a widget and open Canvas. Set the size to 360 × 180, the background to gradient #0B1026 to #1B2250 at 45° and the corner radius to 24.
2. Add a Shape on the left, 104 × 124 with radius 20, filled with #B38BFF.
3. Add two Date layers over it: the short weekday at size 13 and the day number at size 58, both in #000000.
4. Add a Text label "Next" at size 11 in #8F9AC9.
5. Add a List layer, open Data and choose your calendar. Set the title to size 19 in #F4F6FF and the time to size 14 in #8F9AC9.
6. Add the space ornament with Shape layers and move them below the other layers in Layers: a small violet planet (circle) with a thin ring (ellipse outline) in the top right, and a dozen tiny white dots as stars.
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 space calendar widgets

• Use a gradient from navy to violet.
• Add a few small white circles as stars.
• Event titles vary in length, so give the title a single line and let it truncate.
• Show one or two events at most in a 4 × 2 widget.
• If no events appear, check that the calendar you chose is the one your events are saved in.
• Do not use bright daytime colors.
• Do not overfill; space needs emptiness.
