primal stone
Hey all — I’m hoping to connect with someone familiar with the Android app’s widget implementation. I’ve been building out a fairly large widget-based control setup, and I keep hitting some friction that might already be on the radar — or might be good feature fodder if not.
A few things I’m exploring:
• Having a way to clone/duplicate widgets instead of rebuilding each one
• Backing up and restoring widget setups when moving devices
• Syncing a widget set between two phones
• Or, alternatively, using a centralized metadata model (similar to how the “Buttons for Alexa” app works) where widgets are instances of stored configs rather than one-offs
Before I write up anything formal, is there someone here who works on or knows the state of the widget code? I’d love to sanity-check these ideas and understand what’s feasible.
