Google has listed its Create My Widget app on the Play Store, providing the first detailed preview of an app designed to let users build custom widgets by describing what they want in natural language. The listing shows interfaces for Android phones and Googlebook laptops, but the report does not establish a general release or availability date.
Templates And Editing
According to Android Authority, the listing shows widget categories including combo widgets, important dates, weather alerts and daily brief. Each category offers starting ideas, while users can refine the generated result before adding it to a device’s home screen. Gemini is described as handling the conversion from a natural-language request into a widget.
Phone And Laptop Views
The screenshots cover both Android phone and Googlebook laptop layouts. The laptop version could include additional categories such as events and travel, daily habits, and tools and tips. The reported workflow remains broadly the same: choose a preset or describe a requirement, then edit the resulting widget.
What The Listing Confirms
Google announced Create My Widget ahead of I/O 2026, but there had been little further information before the Play Store listing appeared. The listed app version is “1.27.983746769.0-desktop_release,” which Android Authority says may be connected to recently announced Googlebook laptops that are expected to start shipping soon. The listing and screenshots show the intended experience, while the source does not confirm the app’s final rollout, supported device range or access conditions.
