What a summer 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 summer style shapes it

Summer widgets are bright and warm: turquoise sea, coral, sunshine yellow and white, with bold friendly type. Good for holiday countdowns and step goals.
