Mobile Widgets

PrimeCal offers home screen widgets so you can see your upcoming events at a glance — without opening the app.

Coming in a future update

Home screen widgets are planned for a future release. The PrimeCal mobile app currently focuses on the full in-app experience. This page will be updated when widgets are available.

What Widgets Will Show

When widgets arrive, you'll be able to add small or medium-sized tiles to your home screen that display:

  • Today's events — a list of events happening today with their times and calendar colors
  • Next event — just the very next upcoming event, ideal for a small widget
  • This week at a glance — a compact 7-day view

Current Alternatives

While widgets aren't available yet, you can:

  1. Use Focus view — open PrimeCal to Focus view and see your next event immediately. Set Focus as your default view in Profile → Personalization → Default calendar view.

  2. Pin the app — on iOS, add PrimeCal to your dock; on Android, create a shortcut on your home screen. Tapping it takes you straight to your calendar.

  3. Lock screen shortcut — on newer iPhones (iOS 16+), you can add a PrimeCal shortcut to the lock screen via customization mode.
