Smart Watch Widget

In order to maintain focus on pivotal ongoing tasks, it is often recommended to remove all potential distractions from one’s environment. Any repetitive sounds can turn into a nuisance, including the seemingly harmless ticking of a wristwatch or clock. Despite the prevalence of their digital counterparts, those looking to save desk space and minimize compromises may be well served by utilities such as Smart Watch Widget.

As reliable as regular app windows can be, it is sometimes difficult to leave them in the background without accidentally bringing them forward or minimizing them, which is where widgets come into play. Once installed, the program at hand summons a straightforward analog watch face featuring a digital version on the lower bottom of its interface.

Clicking on the clock itself initializes the settings menu from where one can reposition it to avoid obscuring the view of foreground tasks. For accessibility purposes, those with lower visual acuity may also benefit from the ability to increase its scale when necessary.

In an attempt to preserve the continuity of the desktop’s background, users can choose from a set of predefined images that match the current wallpaper, or select a picture from their local storage for a more personalized approach.

The customization goes a step further by providing you with the option to alter the colors of the watch faces to ensure their readability in accordance with the background. Finally, whenever the user’s focus is sunk into complex tasks, custom alarms featuring descriptions can be quickly set up to ensure enough time is allocated for other purposes as well.

Whether you happen to miss the flexibility of certain Windows 7-era widgets and Rainmeter’s wide array of settings feel overwhelming for your use-case, or you simply require an extension to the taskbar’s time and date section, Smart Watch Widget may be the right choice for your workflow.
