WidgetCraftGet the appClock widgets for Android
A clock widget shows the time in large numerals with the day and date beneath. A digital clock is the widget most people place first. It needs to be readable from arm's length, so the time takes most of the space and the date sits quietly below it.
What you need
It uses the phone's own time, so it needs no permission and works offline. WidgetCraft's clock layer follows your 12- or 24-hour setting unless you choose a format.
Typical size: 4 × 2 cells.
Common mistakes
- Seconds make a home screen widget look busy and Android updates widgets about once a minute, so leave them out.
- Check the widest time, such as 22:58 or 12:48 PM, so it never touches the edges.
- If the launcher crops the widget, reduce the time size before reducing the margins.
