Nicely done, I am impressed.
Because everyone is mentioning that's like Android's Widget-Concept, and Android already solved this - that's not the case in my opinion.
I think it's too complex for users to know what a "widget" excatly is. This is more the concept of: Show me a little bit more than the app-icon - and that's it. Imho the user would understand the concept immediately and don't have to know what actually a "widget" is, or how to remove it.
- mahouse 12y agoTo be honest, it's exactly the same as Windows Phone tiles, if you haven't tried it already.
- potatolicious 12y agoI could be wrong, but I thought WinPhone tiles aren't interactive? Tapping on them only leads to the application, they are otherwise read-only. The designer here is suggesting that the tile contain specific interactive elements (quick reply, play/pause, next song, etc).
