Vaporwave widgets for Android
Sunset gradients, pink and teal, and 1980s nostalgia. 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.
Also known as: synthwave widgets, retrowave widgets, 80s widgets, outrun widgets.

Design rules
- Text: Use wide capitals in white with a pink or teal label underneath.
- Numbers: Center the number in white over the gradient and keep it bold.
- Bars and rings: Use a pink bar on a translucent white track, or a half sun made from a circle.
- Photos: Tint photos pink or purple; palm trees and sunsets are the classic subjects.
- Lists: Use teal markers and white text, three rows at most.
Do
- Set the background to a gradient from purple to blue at an angle.
- Use pink and teal as the only accents.
Avoid
- Do not use dark grey text; white reads best on the gradient.
- Do not add extra colors beyond pink, purple and teal.
Wallpaper and icons
A sunset gradient, grid horizon or palm silhouette.
Pink or gradient icon packs with rounded squares.
