Abstract
In this chapter, we will cover Android’s home screen widgets in detail. Home screen widgets present frequently changing information on the home screen of Android. From a high-level perspective, home screen widgets are disconnected views (albeit populated with data) that are displayed on the home screen. The data content of these views is updated at regular intervals by background processes.
