How do I add a Howbout widget?
Our widget is only available for our iPhone users right now. We have a dedicated Howbout widget on iOS, and a partial workaround for our Android users.
🍎 iOS: How to add the Howbout Widget to your home screen
- On your iPhone home screen, touch and hold an empty space until apps start jiggling
- Tap the ‘+’ icon in the top left corner
- Scroll or search for Howbout, then tap it
- Tap 'Add Widget' to place it on your home screen
- While apps are still jiggling, drag the widget to your preferred location
- Tap 'Done' to save your layout
The widget shows your upcoming plans and makes it easier to stay on top of your updates at a glance.
🤖 Android: How to get a partial widget experience
Although Howbout doesn’t have a native Android widget yet, you can still display your plans via your phone's native calendar widget.
- First, export your Howbout calendar to your phone’s native calendar app (learn how here)
- Set up your phone’s default calendar widget (e.g. Google Calendar)
- Your synced Howbout events will now appear in that widget
