One of Android's best features is being able to add handy little widgets to your home screen and the Honor 5X is no different. Just about every app you install on your device will also have a widget you can place on your home screen -- you just gotta know where to find them.
Now, every launcher is different but for those using the stock "Huawei Home" launcher that came out-of-the-box, here's how you can add widgets to your home screen.
Once you've placed a widget on your home screen, some of them can be resized by long pressing on them, then dropping in the same place. A highlighted box with dots will appears around the widget, allowing you to drag the dots and stretch or shrink the size of the widget (pictured above).
