Is it possible to add an Android widget to app in Uno Platform?

I would love to add a widget to my Android app, which is being developed using Uno Platform.

I found some tutorials how to do it in Xamarin, but don't know if it will work.

One of the tutorials: https://marcofolio.net/app-widget-xamarin-android/

Thanks!

Solution

  • Uno Platform on Android is based on vanilla Xamarin, and you'll be able to use everything that Xamarin provides.

    You'll need to place your android-specific code in your .Android head project (not in the shared project), and the use #if __ANDROID__ blocks to ensure that the android specific code is only used on the android target.
