Spring home screen setup
Spring widgets feel fresh: new-leaf green, blossom pink and pale yellow on a soft white ground, with rounded friendly type. This setup uses three widgets, one wallpaper and one palette so the whole screen reads as a single design.
The three spring widgets
- Spring photo widget (4 × 2): frames a favorite picture with a short caption.
- Spring step counter widget (4 × 2): shows today's steps against your goal.
- Spring to-do list widget (4 × 2): keeps today's tasks on your home screen with boxes you can tick.
Place them top to bottom in that order and leave the row above the dock empty so the wallpaper has room.
Photo widget settings
A photo widget puts a person, place or pet on the home screen without making it the wallpaper. The frame, the crop and the caption decide whether it feels designed or just pasted in.
- Canvas: 360 × 200, background #F6FBEF, corner radius 26
- Layout: caption on the left, photo on the right
- Image: 190 × 160, corner radius 18, crop to fill
- Photos: Blossom and tulip photos fit.
Free to build. Full recipe and steps.
Step counter widget settings
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.
- Canvas: 360 × 180, background #F6FBEF, corner radius 26
- Ring: diameter 104, stroke 12, progress #F28BB3, range 0 to your goal
- Text: percentage inside the ring, size 20, color #2F4A2A
- Bars and rings: Use pink bars on a new-leaf track.
Styling is free; the live data needs Pro. Full recipe and steps.
To-do list widget settings
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.
- Canvas: 360 × 200, background #F6FBEF, corner radius 26
- Text: title "Today", Quicksand, size 22, color #2F4A2A
- Text: count such as "1 of 3", size 12, color #86A07C, right aligned
- Lists: Round pink checkboxes.

How to set up a spring home screen
- Set the wallpaper first, so you can judge every color against it.
- Build the photo widget and add it to the home screen at 4 × 2.
- Duplicate its canvas settings for the step counter and to-do list widgets so the background, radius and outline match exactly.
- Place all three, then adjust margins until the left edges line up.
- Change the icons last, and remove any app you do not use daily from the page.

Fonts for a spring home screen
Use Quicksand (import the font file), or the built-in Sans at weight 600. Corner radius is 26 on every widget so the shapes match.
Do and avoid
- Pair green with one flower color.
- Keep backgrounds almost white.
- Do not use dark heavy colors.
- Do not use more than two accents.
