Allow Android widgets to have individually customized blur background

[theotheroracle]

for widgets not part of starlight, having an option to blur their background would make them feel much more at home

Are you thinking of blurred back plates behind normal widgets? I could definitely add it as an option

[theotheroracle]

yeah like this

is not ideal

[kennethnym]

This is interesting, what app is it from? It should definitely have a background by itself.

[theotheroracle]

that's vinyl

[theotheroracle]

i enabled transparency but other launchers ive used like posidon and kvæsitso draw widget backgrounds

[kennethnym]

My only concern is since the blur background depends on the brightness of the wallpaper, for darker wallpapers the blur background would be dark as well (like you showed in the screenshot), which would lead to dark text on dark background. Do the other launchers you mentioned draw a light background for widgets?

[theotheroracle]

kvæsitso is customizable, and can reflect the device theme, i believe posidon is the same . widgets are also usually customizable

[kennethnym]

What about an option to select plate color per widget?

[theotheroracle]

that would be phenomenal

Ok, will include this in the next big feature patch (app drawer will be added next update!)
