Widgets

Widgets #

μLauncher allows to add app widgets to the home screen and to widget panels.

Widgets can be added, moved, removed and configured in Settings > Manage Widgets.

It is configurable whether or not interaction with a widget should be enabled.

  • If interaction is enabled, touch events are forwarded to the widget as usual. However, μLauncher gestures can not be executed in areas where such a widget is present.

  • If interaction is disabled, the widget does not respond to any touch events. This is recommended when using a widget only to display information.

μLauncher’s clock behaves similar as an app widget and can be managed in the same way.1

Widget Panels #

Widget panels can contain widgets that are not needed on the home screen. They can be managed in Settings > Manage Widget Panels. Widget panels can be opened by using the Open Widget Panel action.


  1. However, it is technically not an app widget and cannot be used with other launchers. ↩︎
