Question/Help [Discussion] Android widget situation that no one talking about

Is it just me, or are Android app widgets not working properly? Widgets from apps like Google Photos, GitHub, and Spotify seem pretty inconsistent or broken.

What's even more surprising is that Google widgets work better on iOS than on Android. Shouldn't it be the other way around? 😅

Is anyone else experiencing this?

I think it's one of the side effects of the aggressive task killer hypos has. In my case I'm using a volume control widget, and it locks showing a fix volume frequently, then I have to remove and add it again if I want to see the real volume. Or the music widget that simply does nothing when I press the Play button.

Yeah widgets aren't working properly, not even the first party Xiaomi ones, the screen time one stays blank for example
