One Big Widget
Read full descriptionHide full description
Put any web page on your Home Screen. Pick a site, crop to the part you actually care about, and the widget keeps a fresh snapshot of it. A price, a scoreboard, a headline, a launch countdown, an RSS feed, a dashboard you check ten times a day. Kept fresh in the background, and refreshed every time you open the app. That is the Web Widget, and it is why most people install One Big Widget. The rest of the app is a full widget builder with no subscription trap: a genuinely generous free tier, and a one-time unlock if you want everything. AT A GLANCE One smart widget that shows what matters right now: your next event, reminders due today, a severe weather alert, an upcoming birthday, or a low battery warning. It ranks them by urgency so you only see the one that counts. Everything is gathered on your device. THE BUILDER Pick a template. Tap a few colors. Drop it on your home screen. Three taps to something beautiful, with a deeper editor underneath when you want to control every detail. WIDGET TYPES - Photo widgets in every size - Countdown widgets that update to the day, hour, and minute - Digital and analog clocks - Custom text and bundled quotes - Gradient backgrounds with multi-color blends - Animated GIFs straight from your photo library - Lock Screen widgets: circular, rectangular, and inline EVERY SIZE Small, medium, large, and extra large, plus Lock Screen. All from the same builder, with no upsell to unlock the size you actually need. THE FREE TIER, ACTUALLY FREE - Unlimited widgets, no count cap - Every widget size - 82 of the 127 designs - Custom colors - No ads in the editor, ever UNLOCK EVERYTHING A one-time purchase unlocks all 127 designs, including the Web Widget and At a Glance, plus every future addition. Pay once, yours forever. PRIVACY No accounts. No tracking. No analytics. No third-party SDKs. Your photos, calendar, reminders, and contacts never leave your device. The only thing that ever leaves is feedback you type and send us from Settings — nothing about your widgets goes with it. Built by Hello Good Day.
