## What it is
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
