How to add Pokémon GO Widgets

Pokémon GO has three helpful widgets Trainers can add to their home screens. Trainers can use these widgets to track Egg hatching progress, see their Buddy Pokémon’s mood, and see their weekly progress report at a glance.

These widgets work best when you have Adventure Sync enabled so you can make progress while Pokémon GO is closed.
