For me it’s the notification light you used to find on older phones, was particularly good to know if your phone was charged without picking it up

    Try Kustom Widget (KWGT). It’s a scripted mini app maker that exposes a lot of the phone internals, and it keeps expanding. The developer is really responsive to feature requests. I use it with my home weather station and a pi-based sensor network to monitor home security. When I get my solar installed, I’ll add in the status of that system. The major limitation is that KWGT is event driven, with a minimum update interval of once a second. This interval has a major impact on battery life, so the default is one minute.

      Hrm; I use the Minimalist Home phone screen so I have no widgets; is there a way to launch scripts from a regular app?
