Widget: Ability to Adjust Widget Size on Android

Feature Request

I know there are several other posts about this and some of them even say that they have been completed, but I don’t see the options to resize a widget on android at all. I switched to Habitify over my old habit tracker because habitify supported a smart watch and was still being actively supported and worked on, while the old app I used wasn’t. However the widgets for this app in my opinion are severely lacking, mainly because they are all way to big. Please make it so we can size these down to reasonable sizes and please make it function not just on iOS but also on android. It seems like android is typically an after thought, and while I know you cant just apply the same fix from iOS to android, it would be nice to see some movement on this.

    Hi @LREngineer !

    Thank you for your honest feedback, and we hear your concerns regarding the Android experience. We have a guide detailing widget resizing and its current limitations here: https://intercom.help/habitify-app/en/articles/12440484-resizing-widgets-ability-and-limitations.

    Please rest assured that Android is definitely not an afterthought for us; we are committed to continuous improvements across both platforms and will keep working to make our widgets more flexible.

      Thank you for sharing a post that does absolutely nothing to address the situation. Here is a sample screenshot of one of the widgets. It comes up as 3×2 but had empty space on the top and bottom. You hold down on the widget like the post says amd it gives you that blue box, but even when you drag it, it doesn't go any smaller. You can go bigger, but the widget is already huge so I dont see why anyone would want that. I hope making these widgets smaller gets added to the road map, because right now with how big they are, they are basically useless which is frustrating because there is so much the app does right. I do still like the app but there are a lots of frustrations with it too.
