WidgetCraftGet the appTo-do list widgets for Android
A to-do list widget keeps today's tasks on your home screen with boxes you can tick. 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.
What you need
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.
Typical size: 4 × 2 cells.
Common mistakes
- Limit the list to three or four rows so each stays easy to tap.
- Make finished tasks visibly different: grey text and a strikethrough.
- Tap targets on a widget should be at least 48 dp high.
