    Why can't I add a widget, such as a clock, to my home screen using Nova Launcher?

    I don't think that I did, but honestly I can't recall. I ended up getting a good deal on an Honor 8 phone, and sold my Blu phone.

    Why can't I add a widget, such as a clock, to my home screen using Nova Launcher?

    I may have mentioned earlier, but I've found that Lightning Launcher (for whatever reason) allows me to use Widgets. But, it's SO customizable that I just haven't had a chance to try to make sense of setting it up the way I'd like it to be.

    That's what I've always heard... I'm keeping my fingers crossed, but realizing there's a good chance the update might never materialize. In the meantime, I'll just keep using the Google Now launcher... can't really customize jack-squat, but at least widgets work on it.

    FYI... got this response from Blu today. Hopefully it's accurate. "Our software team is aware of the situation, and is in the final testing phase of a new update. Once this update is released, your device will notify you."

    Just FYI - the reply I got from TeslaCoil support was as follows: Hello, I spoke to Kevin about this and unfortunately it's a 3rd party launcher issue. Google Now Launcher uses a different way of accepting the API because it's a system app where as Nova, Apex and other 3rd party launchers...

    Thanks... hopefully they'll get something out soon. I will say, it's not ALL 3rd party launchers... Google Now and Lightning launcher both will run Widgets without issue on the Vivo 5R.

    I actually had emailed that support address earlier today. I'll update in this thread if I get a reply.

    Why can't I add a widget, such as a clock, to my home screen using Nova Launcher?

    The first time I set my 5R up on Tuesday, I did restore from another phone. However, I did a complete factory reset yesterday, and did NOT do a restore this time around. No change... Nova still doesn't allow widgets. Also, I tried Apex Launcher, and it gives the same error when I try to add...

    I get the same error on 'any' widget that I try to add. Doesn't matter what the source for it is. Anything from the list of available widgets gives the same application error. Even widgets that worked perfectly fine with Nova on my G3.

    I don't have an answer for you, but I'm in the *exact* same boat... coming from an LG G3 over to a Blu Vivo 5R... can't install widgets via Nova Prime Launcher... *ugh*
