The Essential Guide to Android Widgets
With hundreds of thousands of apps and widgets available for download from the Google Android Market, it can be a tough challenge to decide which ones deserve a place on the limited number of home screens you are allowed on your smart phone or tablet.
The Android Market hosts thousands of widgets, many of them free. Applications are great on tablets and mobile phones, but widgets are a step ahead. Whilst they are often linked to apps, they provide instant information right on the home screen of the device. Widgets are unique to Android.
Any Android device, from version 1.5 up can support widgets. Android widget functions range from clock, music, system information, battery, calendar, Facebook, dictionary, and many more.
Widgets can save you time, increase productivity and give you a practical way of personalizing your device, for that ultimate Android experience. Widgets provide information and/or tools right on your home screen. With a maximum of only six home screens on your Android device; however, finding out which ones are worth the space is important.
The “Essential Guide to Android Widgets” also gives you step-by-step instructions on how to install and manage widgets and shows you how you can get the most out of your Android smart phone or tablet by customizing the look and feel of your device and adding great new functionality and features.
