Google Unveils Create My Widget App for Custom Android Widgets
Google has finally released its 'Create My Widget' app on the Play Store, allowing users to create their own custom widgets for Android devices. This feature was announced back in May during Google I/O 2026 and is initially available on Pixel and Galaxy phones.
The app lets users describe what they want created, and then Gemini will take care of the rest. Users can choose from various categories such as combo widgets, weather alerts, important dates, daily briefs, and more.
Each category provides several widget ideas to get started, and users can refine their creations before adding them to their home screen. This means users can customize everything to their liking.
The app is set to roll out to other devices down the road, but no specific date has been mentioned. The release date for the app was September 24, which it should have become available already.
