White countdown widget
A white countdown widget counts the days left until a date you choose. Bright white cards with soft grey text. This page gives the exact colors, type settings and layers, with a preview drawn from the same values.
What a white countdown widget shows
A countdown widget keeps one date in view: a trip, a birthday, an exam or a launch. The number of days is the hero, the event name gives it meaning and a bar shows how far along you are.
WidgetCraft's countdown layer works from the phone's clock, so it is free, needs no permission and works offline. You pick the target date in the layer's details.
How the white style shapes it
White widgets are bright, light cards with grey and black text and a pale accent. They make a home screen look open and tidy, especially over light wallpapers.
- Numbers: Keep numbers charcoal and medium weight.
- Bars and rings: Use a thin blue bar on a pale grey track.

Tips for white countdown widgets
- Add a very soft shadow so white cards lift off light wallpapers.
- Keep one cool accent.
- Decide whether today counts; label the number "days left" or "sleeps" so it is not ambiguous.
- Short event names fit best. Two or three words is ideal.
- After the date passes, change the target or the widget will sit at zero.
- Do not use pure black text; charcoal is softer.
- Do not use it on a white wallpaper without a shadow or outline.
