Widgets are great! They are one of the biggest parts of Android that set it apart from competing operating systems. They give us all kinds of information quickly and efficiently right from our homescreen. Sometimes we are in the middle of something and we aren't able to go to the homescreen without losing what we are working on or causing frustrations by having to fully exit the app we are in. WidgetShade allows you to access widgets from anywhere in Android without having to return to the homescreen. You simply press the + button or press any unused space to add a widget. Widget Shade shows as an overlay over the app you are actively in. Grab this neat app form the link in the description.
