Kanso studio
Calm, reliable home-screen widgets.
Kanso makes small Android widgets that stay correct, stay quiet, and never ask for more than they need.
First release
Kanso Dot
Dot-matrix clocks, dates, battery, weather and now-playing widgets for Android 12 and later, built to stay on time without running in the background.
- On-the-minute dot clocks
- No background services
- No ads, no tracking
- Material You and built-in palettes
How we build
Less, done carefully.
-
On the minute, every minute
Our dot clocks are redrawn on each minute with a short, scheduled update that never wakes a sleeping phone, and they catch up the instant you turn the screen on.
-
Do nothing when idle
No background services and no persistent notification. With no widgets placed, nothing is scheduled at all.
-
Ask for less
No accounts, ads or analytics. Permissions are optional, and we ask only when a widget needs one.
