Moon Phase Widget Android

Moon Phase Widget

Simple widget to display the current phase of the moon.

Features & Capabilities

The Moon Phase Widget is an easy-to-use 2x2 widget that displays the current phase of the moon based on today's date, updating every few hours to conserve battery life. It now supports both northern and southern hemispheres in its information screens. A new 1x1 widget displaying just the moon is also available, along with a launcher icon for devices that don't support widgets.

Users can tap the widget to access a detailed information screen, showing the moon's phase relative to the earth with accurate rotation timing. The extension also features a comprehensive calendar that lets you view moon phases for any date and year, highlighting special events like blood moons and eclipses. While sizes and distances are approximated for clarity, this free and ad-free extension offers an engaging way to keep track of lunar phases on your device.

User Reviews

Moon Phase Widget is praised for being a simple, reliable, and ad-free app with a sharp-looking widget and no excessive permissions. Users appreciate its accuracy and developer support. However, recurring issues include the widget sometimes failing to update or resetting to wrong dates, requiring reinstallations. The app lacks updates, local date format adaptability, and Southern hemisphere moon views in the widget. Overall, users value its straightforwardness but desire improved stability and minor feature enhancements.

  • Free app with no ads and no suspicious permissions.

  • App and widget have not been updated in a long time.
  • Date format is fixed to US style and does not adapt to local settings.
  • No display of Southern hemisphere moon phase view in the widget.
  • Widget sometimes resets to an incorrect date after phone restarts or OS updates.

A nice moon phase widget. Free, no ads, and no suspicious permissions. Very good, straightforward app. There is so much trash on the play store, it's refreshing to see someone still providing a decent free app. Just searching for a moon phase widget brings up a bunch of over-monetized garbage (even though there are endless free websites providing this information, and there's little justification for charging for it), well done to the author for denying that trend.

I got this right around the time it released waaay back in 2014 and I've loved it since. My old phone broke and I somehow couldn't remember the name to find it, so I've been using Google for almost two years but this app is a real gem! I absolutely love the widget, it's simple and it never drained my battery. Thanks so much for doing what you do!
