Vaporwave battery widget

What a vaporwave battery widget shows

A battery widget turns one number into a shape you can read without thinking. A ring that fills clockwise is the clearest form, with the percentage inside it.

Battery level is a free, built-in source in WidgetCraft and needs no permission. The widget refreshes when the charge changes or the charger is connected.

How the vaporwave style shapes it

Vaporwave widgets use a pink-to-purple sunset gradient, teal highlights and wide retro type. The look comes from 1980s graphics remembered through early internet art.

• Bars and rings: Use a pink bar on a translucent white track, or a half sun made from a circle.
• Numbers: Center the number in white over the gradient and keep it bold.

How to make a vaporwave battery widget in WidgetCraft

1. Create a widget and open Canvas. Set the size to 200 × 200, the background to gradient #2B1055 to #7597DE at 45° and the corner radius to 14.
2. Tap Add and choose Ring. Set the diameter to 120 and the stroke to 12.
3. Open Data for the ring and connect it to Battery level with a range of 0 to 100.
4. Color the progress #FF71CE and the track #E0C3FC at about 28% opacity.
5. Add a Battery layer in the center at size 44 in #FFFFFF, then a small Text label underneath.
6. Add the vaporwave ornament with Shape layers and move them below the other layers in Layers: a pink half sun (circle) rising from the bottom right, cut by four thin horizontal bars in the background color.
7. Tap Save, then Add to home screen and resize the widget on your launcher if needed.

Tips for vaporwave battery widgets

• Set the background to a gradient from purple to blue at an angle.
• Use pink and teal as the only accents.
• Start the ring at the top and fill clockwise; other start points are harder to read.
• Keep the track visible at low opacity so an almost-empty ring still looks like a ring.
• A battery widget shows the phone only. Earbuds and watches need their maker's own widget.
• Do not use dark grey text; white reads best on the gradient.
• Do not add extra colors beyond pink, purple and teal.
