It would be very helpful if we had options for Android widgets. Widgets can be used on the home screen for Android to do quick things like:
- Tracking current progress on goals, like seeing where my current step count is, seeing the next action I need to take on a workout, what my new sleep target is and when I should probably plan on getting to sleep, how much hydration I've had compared to my goal for the day, etc.
- Quick entry of data - like adding to hydration tracking, entering a new weight (when I'm not using my Garmin scale), adding a manual entry of an exercise, etc.
It wouldn't add anything that isn't already in the Connect app but widgets can provide a quick way to go directly to that part of the app I'm interested in most at that time (without having to launch the app, scroll down, tap something else to get to the entry screen) or just allow me to enter it in directly.
Widgets make using Garmin services even easier for the user.
