Description
A critical issue where the option to add or create widgets on the home screen/favorites list is either missing, non-functional, or results in no widget appearing after selection. This prevents the use of both Niagara’s built-in widget features (like the clock/calendar replacement) and third-party app widgets.
System Information
Android Version: Android 17 Beta
Steps to Reproduce
Long-press on the Niagara "Clock" or an empty area in the Favorites list.
Select "Add custom widget" or navigate to Niagara Settings > Features > Favorites > Add widget.
Select a widget from the list of available apps.
Observe that the widget fails to appear on the home screen, or the configuration screen closes without placing the item.
Expected Behavior
After selecting a widget (and completing any necessary configuration prompts), the widget should appear at the top of the favorites list or replace the default Niagara clock.
Actual Behavior
The widget does not appear after selection.
In some instances, the launcher returns to the home screen with no changes.
The "Add widget" button may occasionally be unresponsive.
Troubleshooting Already Attempted
Restarted Niagara Launcher.
Restarted the mobile device.
Verified that "Niagara Launcher" has the "Display over other apps" permission enabled in system settings.
Cleared the launcher's cache.
