Android widget for Notion

· Download the Notion Android app from the Google Play Store.

· On your Android home screen, long press the Notion app, scroll in the menu, and then tap Widgets.

· Swipe through the widget options. Touch, hold, and drag the widget to rearrange it on your home screen.

· Tap the widget to then choose which workspace and/or page you would like the widget to display.

· Your widget now lives on your home screen! Add as many widgets as you like or edit the content of your existing widgets at any time.

· On some devices, you'll also be able to edit the size of the widget.

Hope that helps.

no, this answer is not related to the topic, I'm talking about a new feature that was added for android on February 8th.

Then that should be an Android setting.

I am not an Android user so I can't help there, but I assume it has to be as all the other widgets Android has. Check your device settings and when you find it, please share so others with the same problem can get a solution.

This answer worked for me! For some reason the widget didn't appear if I tried to add it via the usual widgets section on the homescreen, it only showed up when I followed the instructions Polle gave to long press on the Notion Icon.

I didn't need to update my app, it was already up to date, it seems to have just been a weird Android quirk causing the widget not to be available via the widgets page.

Thank you for adding this @Sqsh as things are easier when more than 1 do the tests. :)

No, unfortunately what you are talking about is not a new widget. Below I will show how it looks (from a user on Twitter), but according to the comment under this update, most people have encountered the problem that they do not have this function, probably an error in the application.
