Why tasks/notes widgest waste so much space?
I have a 2x3 Keep widget that allowed me to view around 8 items at a glance. But since last update they completely messed it up. What I have tried so far: New keep: It has 2 options, one wastes literally more than 50% of space, the other is riduculously…
I have a 2x3 Keep widget that allowed me to view around 8 items at a glance. But since last update they completely messed it up. What I have tried so far: New keep: It has 2 options, one wastes literally more than 50% of space, the other is riduculously sparse. Google Tasks: Very sparse. Microsoft To-Do: Still sparse, and doesn't allow a width of 3. It has an option to change font size, but it doesn't improve density. To better understand what I mean: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/HODiPY1W4AEQqTD?format=jpg&name=large Why do UI designers hate productivity?

These issues likely stem from factors such as larger digit(fingers) size, diminished manual dexterity, or visual impairments common among older demographics...... Carving for minimalist design could also be a factor..... While I do not claim expertise in app design, these are my inferences; regardless, any high-quality application should inherently provide robust customization options.
I don't know if it's a screen resolution thing or maybe text size, but on my phone if I shrink it to 2 tiles wide to cut out the side bar, it only allows like 7 letters wide before dropping to the next line. Half the words on your list there would be cut in half and on two lines. Good find though, I hope it helps some people until Google fixes this awful change and at least adds some configuration options.
yesss omg the new update sucks so bad!! I really hope they come to their senses
TickTick has widgets that are pretty dense
Really bad update. I found a somewhat buggy fix. If i resize the 4x3 widget to 2 width it cuts away the side icons! I use action launcher, I assume it st least works in most custom launchers.
