If you want your app to get noticed, you gotta get in the game. The Widget game, that is. (http://developer.android.com/design/p...) Widgets are literally a window into your app. They let users see key information at a glance, trigger helpful controls with a tap, and even interact with your app without ever needing to open it. Not having one (or several!) sounds like a missed opportunity to me. You don’t want to be a missed opportunity, do you?
