Enable Your Toggles Everywhere With Action Widgets

We look forward to custom ROMs and Kernels to give our phone a performance boost, but we also do want our Android smartphone to look distinctive and handy to our needs at all times. To do so, we always try something new like launchers, wallpapers and widgets. Widgets are a part of both, themes and productivity, they give a nice appeal to the display, as well as play an important part to complete specified actions with a few taps.

Today, we’re going to hover our hands on Action Widgets, which are a beautiful creation of XDA member leducbao. It is a set of useful widgets which can be placed over your home screen and notification area as well, giving you complete control to toggle features on your Android smartphone without even opening the menu. Action Widgets were released yesterday to the Play Store.

My Opinion

Personally,  i have been using Action Widgets since a while now and find them extremely productive. It can be used with any launcher or theme,  moreover AW offers its own set of themes to match your device’s theme. AW has only been available since a few days,  with an initial release and has already got a large number of installs and positive review. If you’re seeking toggle widgets,  AW should be your call.
