Add Home Screen Widgets #12
Comments
Since the widgets can only be made with native code, I would have to re-implement the clock on both Android and iOS, completely defeating the purpose of having used React Native in the first place. Until core React Native is more useable for widgets OR someone discovers a way to work with each platform's strict RAM limitations, I will not be working on this feature request. |
Note to future developers: While widgets are definitely the dominant preference, it may be possible to draw the app on top of others, like how Google Maps can sit around as a floating app card on top of other apps. |
This has been requested multiple times in app store reviews, so I'm re-opening for further consideration. On a personal development note, building these native widgets will be a good opportunity to learn more about the native APIs and methods for communicating effectively between react native and platform native. |

It would be amazing to have a Home Screen widget for the clock so that I could see the time in Binary without having to open the app.
