Google Lists Create My Widget App on Play Store for Android and Googlebook OS
Google has listed its Create My Widget app on the Play Store, showing how users can build custom widgets with natural language and Gemini on Android phones and Googlebook laptops. The listing includes widget categories, templates, and a desktop release version.
Android Authority reported that the listing was first spotted by 9to5Google. Screenshots in the Play Store entry show the app's interface and the kinds of widgets it will support. The core function is straightforward: users describe the widget they want, and Gemini handles the rest. The app also offers widget categories to help users get started, including combo widgets, important dates, weather alerts, daily brief and more. Each category includes several widget ideas that serve as quick starting points.
After creating a widget, users can edit and refine it before adding it to their home screen. The listing indicates that the same basic approach will extend to Googlebook laptops, where the app may offer additional categories such as events and travel, daily habits, and tools and tips. The creation flow is expected to remain the same on those devices, with users able to customize preset templates or describe their requirements in natural language and leave the work to Gemini.
The Play Store version is listed as "1.27.983746769.0-desktop_release." Android Authority reported that the desktop label likely signals preparation for the Googlebook laptops Google recently announced, which will start shipping soon. The listing does not provide a release date for the app itself, and Google has not said when Create My Widget will be broadly available. The screenshots nevertheless show what the company has been building since it first announced the app ahead of I/O 2026. For now, the Play Store entry serves as the clearest public view of how widget creation will work on Android phones and Googlebook OS.
