Smartspacer is a customisable Android widget that replaces or upgrades the built-in At a Glance/Smartspace on Pixel devices without root. It includes an extensive plugin system and SDK for pulling in data from other apps and integrating with third-party launchers.

Use cases

  • replace At a Glance on my Pixel home screen without root
  • show At a Glance content on a third-party Android launcher
  • build a plugin that adds custom data to my home screen widget
  • show contextual info like a loyalty card when I'm at the store
  • replace Google Discover with a custom smartspace panel
  • upgrade the lock screen At a Glance on my Pixel

When to choose

  • you want a drop-in At a Glance replacement or upgrade on Android, especially Pixels
  • you want widget content from many apps via plugins
  • you're a launcher developer wanting Smartspace integration

When to avoid

  • you need an iOS or desktop widget solution
  • you don't want to install extra apps or use Shizuku for Pixel integration
