Android Widgets

Use widgets to manage your tasks right from your Android device’s home screen without opening the app. SingularityApp offers several types of to-do list widgets for Android — from a quick-access task list and android checklist widget to voice input and habit tracking. Available on all Android devices, including Samsung.

How to Add a To-Do List Widget on Android

  1. Tap and hold an empty area on your home screen for a few seconds.
  2. In the menu that appears, select “Widgets”.
  3. Find the SingularityApp widget you need (for example, “Today”) and tap it.
  4. Choose a spot on your home screen for the widget and place it there.

You can resize the widget by pressing and holding it, then dragging the handles to stretch or shrink it.

After adding the widget, you can customize its settings. The available options depend on the widget type (described in detail in each widget’s section below), but generally include:

  1. Choose the folder to display tasks from: Today, No Project, Inbox, or a specific project.
  2. Set the theme: light or dark.
  3. Adjust transparency and font size.
  4. Choose what to display: task names only, or full details (dates, projects, notes, checklists, tags, reminders, and deadlines).
  5. If you have Google Calendar or a web calendar connected, configure how calendar events are shown.

Available Widgets

SingularityApp provides several widgets for Android. Some are available on all plans, while others require a Pro or Elite subscription.

Today

View your to-do list for today, add new tasks, and mark tasks as completed right from your home screen — just like an android checklist widget. Completed tasks will disappear from the widget.

In the widget you can:

  • Switch the folder tasks are displayed from;
  • Add new tasks;
  • Mark tasks as completed (completed tasks no longer appear in the widget).

When adding the widget, you can customize the following settings:

  • Transparency;
  • Dark theme toggle;
  • Show task details — if disabled, only task names will be displayed;
  • Font size: large, medium, or small;
  • Calendar events: show all, hide past, or hide all;
  • Task list: Today, No Project, Inbox, or a specific project.

Plans (Pro & Elite)

View and complete tasks by date. Switch between dates directly in the widget without opening the app. Flip through months using the arrow buttons on either side of the month name, and add new tasks directly from the widget.

When adding the widget, you can customize the following settings:

  • Transparency;
  • Dark theme toggle;
  • Show task details — if disabled, only task names will be displayed;
  • Font size: large, medium, or small;
  • Calendar events: show all, hide past, or hide all.

Calendar (Pro & Elite)

View and complete tasks by date in a calendar format, right from your home screen.

When adding the widget, you can customize the following settings:

  • Transparency;
  • Dark theme toggle;
  • Show tasks in the widget toggle;
  • Show task details — if disabled, only task names will be displayed;
  • Font size: large, medium, or small;
  • Calendar events: show all, hide past, or hide all.

New Task

The widget allows you to quickly create new tasks without opening the app.

Tap the widget and the task creation screen will open in the app. Fill in the task details and save it.

This widget has no customizable settings.

Voice Input (Pro & Elite)

Tap the widget to open the voice input window. Say the task text, and the system will automatically recognize your speech and convert it to text. You can cancel input during recording by swiping left.

Voice input recognizes the task name and its parameters:

  • Date and time;
  • Project;
  • Tags;
  • Priority;
  • Reminder.

For example, if you say “Team call tomorrow at 3:00 PM project mobile app high priority remind me 30 minutes before”, the task will be created with all the specified parameters. If no project is mentioned, the task will go to “Inbox”.

Additional commands are also available:

  • “to inbox” — the task goes to “Inbox” without a project, date, or reminders;
  • “someday” — the task will be marked as deferred;
  • “no reminder” or “don’t remind” — no reminder will be set.

After the recording is complete, a screen with the recognized text and extracted parameters will appear. Confirm the creation by tapping the checkmark icon. While the loading circle is still in progress, you can cancel the creation by tapping the trash icon.

This widget has no customizable settings.

Habits (Pro & Elite)

The widget displays all your active habits with today’s progress — the name of each habit and its current completion status. Tap a habit to open it in the app. Tap the refresh icon in the widget header to sync the latest data from the server.

The widget can be resized both horizontally and vertically.

When adding the widget, you can customize the following settings:

  • Transparency;
  • Dark theme toggle.

One Habit (Pro & Elite)

The widget displays one of your habits and lets you mark it as completed right from your home screen. It shows your habit progress for the last 3 days — the day before yesterday, yesterday, and today — as well as your current completion streak.

In the widget you can:

  • Tap any of the three days to mark or unmark that day’s completion — without opening the app;
  • Long-press the widget to open the habit in the app.

When adding the widget, you can customize the following settings:

  • Select which habit to display;
  • Transparency;
  • Dark theme toggle.

Status Bar Widget (Notification Shade)

The status bar widget shows one task for today directly in your Android notification shade — you can mark it as completed, flip through tasks using the arrow buttons, or create a new task without unlocking your phone or opening the app.

To enable it, go to Settings → Notifications → Status Bar Widget.

Which tasks appear in the widget:

  • Tasks with today’s date;
  • If the “Overdue tasks” option is enabled — active overdue tasks from the last 7 days (snoozed and completed tasks are not included);
  • Completed, deleted, recurring tasks, journal entries, and shared tasks where you are not assigned as the performer are not shown.

Task order in the widget:

  1. Pinned tasks — shown first;
  2. Tasks with a set time — shown before tasks without a time, sorted chronologically by start time;
  3. By priority — from high to low;
  4. Alphabetically by task name.

The arrows cycle through tasks in this order. Your selected position is saved until the end of the day; at midnight the widget automatically returns to the first task.

In the widget you can:

  • Mark the displayed task as completed;
  • Flip through tasks using the forward and back arrows;
  • Create a new task;
  • Tap the widget to open the app.

Long-Press Menu

The menu that appears when you long-press the app icon provides quick access to SingularityApp folders and functions.

Press and hold the SingularityApp icon for a few seconds. Select: Habits, Plans, Today, or New Task.

  • Habits — opens the “Habits” section;
  • Plans — opens the “Plans” folder, which displays tasks with assigned dates;
  • Today — opens the “Today” folder with your tasks for the day;
  • New Task — opens the window for creating a new task.
