The iPhone has borrowed a lot of features from Android over the years. One thing that is still uniquely Android is widgets. Like every Android phone, the Mate 8 supports widgets.
A widget allows you to see information on your home screen without opening an app. For example, a weather widget can display the current temperature. A sports widget can show you scores from your favorite teams. The list goes on. Here's how to use widgets.
In this guide, we're using the default "Huawei Home" launcher. The process should be the same for most launchers.
