Today’s smartphones are capable of doing an infinite number of things, although sometimes we have to look beyond the necessary to do tasks that can be considered simple. To save us work precisely on this we have widgets, which are small applications with which we can quickly access a lot of important information. If you want to know which are the best ones that you can install on your Android mobile, you just have to keep reading.
To put a widget on our phone, all we have to do is click on an empty space on the screen and select the widget option that will appear at the bottom of the screen. In this way, each user can customize their mobile as they wish, putting these quick functions in the order they want.
Stuff
We start the list with a simple widget, but we can use it so that we don’t forget anything. Stuff is a tremendously minimalist widget that will help us to have all our tasks and everything we have to do at our fingertips with the touch of a finger.
The simplicity that it is also means that it can be used on any device without consuming too many resources in the process. It has several very intuitive categories so that we can add what we want and have it well classified.
Haste
If you have deadlines at university or at work, Premura (or Hurry) can be very useful. This widget will allow us to set eye-catching countdowns so that we don’t forget when our next deadline is due.
The widget is one of the most interesting that we are going to find on this list, and it is also very configurable. We will be able to synchronize it with our calendar so as not to have to enter the events by hand, and we will also be able to share these events with friends.
As an application, there isn’t much we can say about WhatsApp that you don’t already know, but what you may not know is that you can also use it as a widget . Doing it is very simple, and it will allow us to have the application anchored on our main screen.
It is true that at the design level it falls far behind like wigdet, but it is worth having it on this list because of how useful it can be. It will allow us to see any message we receive without having to enter the application all the time .
Shazam
Shazam is one of those apps that cannot be missing from your mobile. Thanks to it, we will be able to know the name and artist of a song just by making the mobile listen to it briefly and, of course, we will also be able to do it with a widget.
By placing this on our screen we won’t even have to open the application to be able to recognize a song and its artist, but simply press the widget briefly and Shazam will do everything else.
volume control
All mobiles today have buttons on the side so that we can raise or lower the volume depending on what we need, but this seems quite limited. Thanks to the Volume Control widget we can have total control over this section of our phone .
With it installed, we will have access to change the volume independently of the alarm, the media that we have active, the ringtone, notifications or even any Bluetooth device that we have connected.
Spotify
Spotify is one of the most used apps to listen to music, both for free and with some of its paid subscriptions. It is quite comfortable and useful and, of course, it also allows us to set a widget on the screen .
Thanks to this, we will be able to control the reproduction of what we are listening to , as well as we will be able to see the song, the artist and even the album cover where said song is. Very useful and hardly consumes any mobile resources.
Geometric Weather
If what you are looking for is to control and see the weather in your area, Geometric Weather is a widget that can work very well for you. This is capable of showing you the 15-day weather forecast , and it does so quite accurately.
The app also allows us to customize the widget with various backgrounds with a fairly large amount of variety. Geometric Weather is completely free, so you don’t lose anything by downloading it to try it on your Android mobile.
