I personally only use the Google calendar widget and it's the only one I feel that is useful. I'm sure there are other widgets out there that I could be using in my daily life.

So, what widgets do you use?

Only really like useful at a glance stuff.

  • Page 1 is photo memories of my daughter and loads of app folders
  • Page 2 pixel battery indicator, data usage, VPN status, Daily dictionary word
  • Page 3 full page agenda from Proton calendar
  • Page 4 tv series upcoming shows

Three.

I've got Google Calendar, Google Keep and my weather app set up on my right screen (swipe right). Gives me all I need in one place and they just about fit onto one page.

Home screen and Page 2 - I only have two pages. The clock app is mostly for a quick way to see when my next alarm is, plus easy access to the alarm page for changing them around.

Page 3: keep list (for shopping, can directly untick) and battery widget (goes straight to battery usage page, and shows earbuds/case when relevant)

I have the Google search bar (via Nova Launcher) and Another Widget which replicates the Google At a Glance widget with additional features

I have the fit one, and the switchbot widget that shows the temperature of the house. I also have the calendar widget on another screen, but I actually rarely look at it.
