# How to add widgets to your home screen

Touch and hold an empty spot on your home screen, tap the + button, search for Potty Whiz, and choose Training Log. Widgets need Premium.

The **Training Log** widget lets you log an activity for your child straight from your home screen, without opening the app.
Widgets need Premium.
Without Premium, you see "This is a premium feature." instead of your child.

## What the widget shows

- Your child's name.
- On iPhone, while a potty timer runs, a countdown to the next potty break next to the name.
- Your child's first few activities, with how long ago each was last logged.
  These are the first activities on your child's **Settings** tab: 3 on iPhone and up to 4 on Android.
- A plus button next to each activity.
  Tap it to log that activity right now; your phone vibrates to confirm.

To change which activities appear, open your child, tap the **Settings** tab, and drag your favorite activities to the top.

## Add the widget on iPhone

1. Touch and hold an empty area of your home screen until the apps jiggle.
2. Tap the + button (or Edit, then Add Widget) at the top.
3. Search for "Potty Whiz".
4. Choose **Training Log** and tap Add Widget.
5. To choose a child, touch and hold the widget, tap Edit Widget, and pick a child under **Child**.

Until you choose a child, the widget shows "Long press and tap edit to select a child."
If the widget shows "Open Potty Whiz once to set up this widget.", open Potty Whiz, then come back: the list of children fills in.

## Add the widget on Android

1. Touch and hold an empty area of your home screen.
2. Tap Widgets.
3. Search for "Potty Whiz".
4. Drag the **Training Log** widget to your home screen.
5. On "Select a child to display in this widget", tap your child, then tap **Save**.

To show a different child later, touch and hold the widget and choose the option to reconfigure it.
Tap the widget itself to open Potty Whiz.

## Troubleshooting

- **The widget says "This is a premium feature."**: upgrade from **Unlock More Features!** in the side menu, then open Potty Whiz once so the widget picks it up.
- **"Open Potty Whiz once to set up this widget."**: open Potty Whiz (and sign in if you use an account), then pick your child again.
- **"No child found. Add a child."**: add a child in Potty Whiz first.
- **The wrong activities show**: reorder them on the child's **Settings** tab, then open Potty Whiz once so the widget updates.
