    Lock screen widgets were a neat idea but the original implementation was ugly as hell.

    Just let me put read-only widgets on the lock screen.

    Am I missing something or is this article weird? I have Android 14, one UI 6, and lock screen widgets.

      I didn’t know there was such a thing for some UI… AOSP should catch up quickly if you ask me… I upgraded to A14 and all I have found so far are lags and stutters, especially when minimizing apps… I hope it is only because “it is too fresh”.

    Would be nice for more than just small and adaptive for the basic clock. Maybe add medium and large back in? (just something I don’t understand about vanilla android)

    Who needs this? Fix this first

    • unusable music player buttons, way too small and weird
    • quick settings way too big and ugly, things missing
    • implement most GrapheneOS features, like Contact and storage scopes, internet permission, etc.
    • stop disabling permissions of apps opt-out. Its a feature for dumb people
    • keep maintaining the AOSP apps instead of the Google crap…

      I agree with you about fixing the UI of things that appear on the lock screen that we already have, but I also remember and used these widgets back in the day and I have a use case for them.

    Could we get rid of the lock screen altogether? That would be super.
